  • _MartinDean Martin Dean (@_MartinDean) reported from Blyth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport That's good then I was about to pop into a three store as I thought it was a problem with my sim card. Any ETA ok when this will be fixed and I'm guessing we are getting refunds/extra time to our subscriptions

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUK thank you...you make it impossible to cancel. You are a disgrace...after phoning India for my elderly Godfather to cancel the 18 month plug in 4g wifi that could hit any speeds we were past from pillow to post by India call centre workers. I had to hang up #threenetwork

  • JackLegind JL (@JackLegind) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport can’t update DD details online. Go onto app and says I can’t do it. Chat support is useless and takes 2 hours. Go into store and ask - told they can’t help but use have to use app, me: “that’s shite as well” “I know” cheers then 👍🏼

  • alltimeanja AJU - 🌵 (@alltimeanja) reported from Seaham, England

    Can't wait to complain about this @ThreeUKSupport just had to buy a bus ticket cos your shitty service wouldn't load my month pass on my phone. Ahhhh what a waste man

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport He wants to cancel... What he has been saying for over a week now...there is no option now.

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I got it connected to my Xbox but it couldn't update... It connected to my phone but its right slow. My Godfather is away atm. Can he cancel...i fear this will be a total waste of money for him with being a pensioner.

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @Ofcom I'm having a massive problem trying to help my elderly Godfather in his mid 70s cancel his contract with @ThreeUK it's making him ill, Im frightened he has a heart attack or collapses through stress. He has no internet speed on his WiFi router. Speaking to Indians is frustrating.

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

    @SteveBlythe @ThreeUKSupport They couldn’t even be arsed replying! @ThreeUK must be the worst network for data speed, my days are numbered with them.....

  • fionaw24 Fiona Wilson (@fionaw24) reported from Blyth, England

    @ThreeUK strange network issues, as my phone is randomly sending old texts to people..causing some problems in my household 😡

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

    Someone just passed me on the platform deep down underground on the Newcastle @My_Metro talking on their phone - I struggle to get a worthy @ThreeUK signal up on street level here let alone underground! #ImOnTheWrongNetwork 📲

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Yous are an absolute disgrace of a company. Totally uncaring. I have my elderly Godfather here nearly in tears...i hope yous feel ashamed...ive had to sit him down as I'm worried he has a funny turn. I need a UK number now I am worried. #threenetwork

  • djmckee Dylan McKee (@djmckee) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Unusable signal in NE2 😭😭

  • Stoddy75 Andrew 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺Ⓥ (@Stoddy75) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    Hello @ThreeUK There seems to be network issues in the NE25 0JF area, very poor signal strength on both 3G and 4G.

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport If we do.. I don't expect whoever we speak to to go and and on...i want John to have the right to cancel as soon as he requests to cancel. I phone him twice a day to make sure he is ok...he is the closest thing to me after my mother, my children and my sister.

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport That's what I've had to do...i don't want no nonsense once I take over or I will hang up and take the @Ofcom route. I think to make it even easier is that there is an attachment on John's file that there is only one thing we need and that is cancellation of the contract.

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I've just phoned India again to try to cancel my Godfathers contract...i ended the call as they are once again passing me from pillow to post...its once again stressing my elderly Godfather out...its making him ill...i can find that UK link you give me.

  • Whitby_Born 🎶🌸ⓈⓉⒺⓋⒺ🌸🎶 (@Whitby_Born) reported from South Shields, England

    @Heidi_LFC9 @ThreeUK @EE I'm paying £57 month on 3 for my Samsung S10+ and it's a 2 year plan. I'll have enough to pay off the remaining 15 months in one go soon and I'll swap to EE. I've never had 3 add to my bills when on Unlimited.

  • debbieskywalker Debbie (@debbieskywalker) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Time to change my sim deal and I have to say @VodafoneUK you have had me as a valued customer for years but are nowhere near matching what @ThreeUK have offered! A tenner a month for unlimited everything! #HelloThree

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport 10 days, 7 different online agents , 1 hour in a 3 store, 3 promises of a single letter needed for my insurance claim for a new phone I was robbed of. A 3-5 day wait after each promise. Is this how you treat a loyal 10 year customer !! Still nothing !

  • Madaboutravel Madaboutravel - Todo sobre Escocia (@Madaboutravel) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport cannot log in to my three account because I never receive the SMS with the code to complete the process. Can you help?

  • burnsb Ben Burns (@burnsb) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Conversation didn't finish and the person on the chat had issues, I was told it was going to be fixed today, is that still the case?

  • amikagott amika (@amikagott) reported from Askham Richard, England

    @ThreeUKSupport is there a way to complain about service in my area? I can’t make calls because I have no service

  • MzEmelle Emelle Asante (@MzEmelle) reported

    @ThreeUK I keep on getting service blackouts. Sort it out!!!

  • ps11223300 pete (@ps11223300) reported

    @EE why do you keep activating my emergency alerts when i keep turning it off? I have a duel sim with @ThreeUKSupport and it's not them. Every restart I get a message saying your operator has changed my settings?

  • Kaycisharota Maxine Evans (@Kaycisharota) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, it seems that today the app is working and not saying re-register now. I thought I had re-registered but yesterday it was asking me to do it again and saying there was a problem 😢. Hopefully all is OK now. No, I didn't get any warnings about updates at all 😢.

  • callummhoare ᑕᗩᒪᒪᑌᗰ (@callummhoare) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes everything is activated, also another question this isn't linked with the issue, I know it said the fair usage is 12GB but is that is for every 24hr cyle? Like if in a day I use like 10GB would that reset to 0 the next time it charges the unlock fee?

  • TheRealShermit 🧚🏼 Diane🧚🏼 (@TheRealShermit) reported

    @ThreeUK have to be the worst example of customer service I have experienced in a long time! Absolutely disgusted with them!

  • gateaumon ps1 startup noise (@gateaumon) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi Anthony, I've enabled roaming on my phone but I forgot I had roaming disabled for my plan. The only option offered if I want to switch my roaming data on is to ring you, which I am unable to do as I have no service+the hotel phone won't connect me to the helpline
