  • Icypixel Tom (@Icypixel) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I've been traveling to Newcastle for work over the last 12 or so months and the signal in the centre of Newcastle has been constantly poor, slow/non existent mobile internet. Any plans to upgrade the signal in Newcastle? (& Leeds city whilst we're here)

  • paulbanks60 Paul Banks 🎶🇪🇺 (@paulbanks60) reported from South Shields, England

  • bruceywells ✌Bruce Wells⚽ (@bruceywells) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @ThreeUKSupport why is my phone signal so bad today all of a sudden? Please help

  • ReubenPeccable Andrew Miller (@ReubenPeccable) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @ThreeUK Hey Three! I accidentally subscribed to your mobile wifi instead of a real broadband provider. Is there any chance I'll get a decent signal or am I just going to have to deal with having no internet for hours at a time?

  • DavidBeattie86 David (@DavidBeattie86) reported from South Shields, England

    Anytime I’m in Newcastle City Centre on a match day I cannot get any signal even though it says I have 5G. @ThreeUK are one of the worst networks.

  • SamNicholles Sam Nicholles (@SamNicholles) reported from Longbenton, England

    Still so annoyed at how poor the @ThreeUK app was this morning, absolute shambles trying to get tickets for Peter Kay, hoping to be successful Saturday morning ..

  • LauraChrisp Laura.I.do (@LauraChrisp) reported from Cramlington, England

    @ThreeUKSupport please reply to dm app still not working at all, pls can the presale codes be sent via messenger since can't access the app through no fault of my own

  • SamNicholles Sam Nicholles (@SamNicholles) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    The @ThreeUK app for pre sale ticket sales is an absolute joke, making me create a new account when I’ve already had one, taking ages to load then closing down, class this ..

  • LauraChrisp Laura.I.do (@LauraChrisp) reported from Cramlington, England

    @ThreeUKSupport my three app had gone down any help getting a pre sale code for Peter kay. I cant access the app at all!!

  • fabiliciousx JAN STEWART (@fabiliciousx) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @ThreeUK After being on phone for over an hour, the support kindly waived some charges, a phone call later saying they cannot do this ..what they agreeded because of a waive back in 2017 for £8....what a joke!!!

  • GalaLeon1905 Gala➊➒∞➎ 🦁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@GalaLeon1905) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUK Hi, I am trying to cancel my contract but I don’t have the sim anymore and it is text me the security code so I can’t log in. Live chat is also not working please help me

  • stobbsmeister Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Seaham, England

    @ThreeUK counting down the days until I'm able to leave. I've overlooked the poor CS and data dead spots however the reintroduction of roaming charges (after banging the go roam drum for years) is the final straw. I'm sure I won't be the first or the last to jump to @O2

  • basherdrummer Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Damn. Come on Scotty, we’ve waited long enough now, tell them to hurry up lol

  • willrowactor Will Rowlands (@willrowactor) reported

    It’s now been 7days with zero home broadband signal in my area with @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Same message on the website for the last 7 days, zero updates & they had the cheek to take this month’s payment today too! When i contacted customer service on Friday, the ‘guy’ was more interested in reading out his script of questions to troubleshoot rather than read that i was already aware the issue is local. Absolutely useless! Still no updates at all! When my contract ends i will Never Use the ThreeNetwork again!!!! #Three #ThreeNetwork

  • revkes Kes Grant 🌈 (@revkes) reported

    @ThreeUK Can you tell me what is happening with voice calls please? Myself and my partner have had no service for 5 days. This is getting ridiculous.

  • keanie14 David McKean (@keanie14) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi John, The web chat team is a nightmare. As is, and I’m sorry to say, the ability to communicate with the support staff. My Scottish accent does not help to be honest but there was a complete mis understanding with your colleague due to language barrier. Complaint logged.Thanks

  • LMc31214115 LiamMc (@LMc31214115) reported

    @iD_Mobile_UK @ThreeUK Phone network down again? SM1 postcode

  • RachT234 RachT234 (@RachT234) reported

    My experience with @ThreeUK’s live chat was poor — confusing responses and pointless troubleshooting. Then on the RelayUK call, staff were untrained and impatient. It was exhausting and dehumanising - one of the agents had no idea what RelayUK was.

  • RachT234 RachT234 (@RachT234) reported

    Being disabled shouldn’t mean being ignored. But @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport made cancelling (and later getting a refund) for my service an exhausting and dehumanising experience. They failed to meet even basic accessibility needs — and I had to adapt to them, not the other way around.

  • BrettOfTheSouth Brett (@BrettOfTheSouth) reported

    Will we be getting compo for the Data and service outage on Wednesday? I was stuck at the hospital unable to contact family. @ThreeUKSupport

  • king_gorack Chris (@king_gorack) reported

    Hi @ThreeUKSupport . Now you have merged with Vodafone is there any chance of a working data signal at London Waterloo anytime soon? South Western Railway and Network Rail appear to have given up running to timetable so being able to check what is actually running would be great.

  • RachT234 RachT234 (@RachT234) reported

    @rsmck @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport They can't even get a switch right (according to O2, Three didn't provide required porting information)- I was without service for around 10 hours!

  • ARcrypto12 AR crypto (@ARcrypto12) reported

    @Ofcom hello, as you might be aware, the @ThreeUK merge with @VodafoneUK has caused a lot of mayhem, as a loyal 3 customer for many yrs, I’m getting the run around, as I’m not getting to be able to cancel my remaining 12 months as not allowing me answers, plz could you advise
