  • 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.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport He doesn't want to talk to any Indian Call centre worker. All he wants is to cancel...understand the circumstances I think you should be letting him cancel and get a full refund before it escalates... How bad will yous look if John falls really ill and ends up in hospital.

  • 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

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

    @ThreeUKSupport Your Indian call centres makes it very hard to sort anything out when you get passed to technical for technical to say they are putting you through to technical because this technical can't give the go ahead to cancel the contract. You're a sinister comedy act #cybermuggers.

  • 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 This is how much your uncaring and unhelpful company is affecting him...he is so worried its stressed him out so much his brother wants him to visit his doctor. Its absolutely disgusting that a pensioner who served for our country can be treated so bad. #Shameless #threenetwork

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 📲

  • Funstie Jonathan Peat (@Funstie) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @ThreeUK 3G not working in Newcastle!

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

    @ThreeUKSupport @intuMetrocentre I'm not joking...yous will be the death of my Godfather or he will end up in hospital then it turns serious...that's when yous end up in trouble and get the bad press yous deserve. Under the circumstances I'm sure someone high up with Three can have his contract ended in a shop.

  • 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.....

  • 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.

  • 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 😡

  • 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.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport Unusable signal in NE2 😭😭

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

    @MartinSLewis I'm concerned for the welfare of my elderly Godfather. He signed a 18 month contract with @ThreeUK 5th December.. he has no speed at all from his plug in 4g router...we tried getting help. The manager from the 3 shop he advised to phone and cancel. 1/2

  • 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.

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi three, I have been a loyal customer for the past 7 years. I upgraded at the beginning of last month but I did not receive the device. I made contact with you on Twitter over 2 weeks ago and was advised it is being investigated and I will receive an email.

  • jaidecartwright Jade Cartwright (@jaidecartwright) reported

  • slirvinguk Sarah Lou (@slirvinguk) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport please get back to me regarding complaint 03052021-194848-000002 🤬

  • DianeDiggler Diane diggler (@DianeDiggler) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I won't put myself through it again. They run through a script and won't accept I have done all the checks before then they say there is no issue when it's clear there is. It's ok I know I don't matter

  • coldste Ste (@coldste) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I asked you a few days ago, is there any reason our our echo dot won‘t connect to your Huawei B535 router? We have one already connected but it the second keeps saying there’s wifi problems even though our other devices connect/work fine

  • batpig1982 Chris Davison (@batpig1982) reported

    @ThreeUK almost 20 years as a customer and due to upgrade but cannot match nevermind beat a @virginmedia deal. Pretty poor i'd say.

  • blueStripeLeadr Jay (@blueStripeLeadr) reported

    Ok @threeuk. Your MiFi cannot support a PS4 connection. Whenever it tries the MiFi decide just disconnects everything. Remind me, what am I paying for if you can’t provide a service?

  • lecaitlind 𝐜𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐧 (@lecaitlind) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport hey! I’d love to switch to using you from VOXI - SIM only - I’ve never switched providers before, is there a way to keep my phone number? As I have a lot of people contact me on it

  • dounowhoiam Dan Simpson (@dounowhoiam) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport They are post codes where I am experiencing issues on my commutes.

  • valley66600 Valley76 (@valley66600) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport To speak with an advisor without being cut off would be great, wanted to upgrade now I just want to cancel!!
