Latest outage, problems and issue reports in South Shields and nearby locations:

  • 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 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.

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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 📲

  • 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.....

  • 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 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.

  • 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 @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.

  • 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 👍🏼

  • 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.

  • 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 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

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

    @ThreeUK 3G not working in Newcastle!

  • 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 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

    @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.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport Unusable signal in NE2 😭😭

  • JoBunsell Jo Patrick Bunsell (@JoBunsell) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport The problem with saying you have no fix date is it suggests I am paying you to give me nothing in return. Do you honestly think when this contract ends I will renew?

  • CVRW101 Chloe English (@CVRW101) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I was expecting a callback from manager today about my complaint. The phone just rang for barely 2 seconds, not even enough time to answer the call (and I was on my phone) if you think this counts as calling back 😡

  • GingerSAFC73 Grant Smith (@GingerSAFC73) reported

    @DavidBeattie86 @ThreeUK Same when I’m at Sunderland mate, something about the number of phones clogging the networks i think although never seems as bad at big gigs?

  • Angelik06707161 Angelika (@Angelik06707161) reported

    @ThreeUK very disappointed, has been on the call 50 minutes still not sure what they doing, looks like no-one knows. Very bad experience for me, poor customer service

  • Omari_Abdullah1 Abdullah عبدالله (@Omari_Abdullah1) reported

    @ThreeUK no coverage in Westfield London from your company . No signal at all, are we going back to the dark ages Three ???

  • SimonWalters76 Simon Walters (@SimonWalters76) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I set up my new 5G router yesterday All my devices work fine except for my sky Q Box I have done some research and found that there seems to be an issue between sky and 3 please can you confirm that this is true and is there any sign of this issue being resolved

  • bradleybethley Brad Bethley (@bradleybethley) reported

    @ThreeUK @geegeemidnight Put them eyes away, thrilled to see the back of you!! Customer service and complaints team have been the worst I've ever dealt with. CS given incorrect info, complaints team have marked the case as closed and not told me... no resolution provided! MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN!. UNHAPPY!

  • ChobeUtsav Utsav Chobe (@ChobeUtsav) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Spent hours on it over last week .. the support team could do absolutely nothing.. and were completely robotic, repetitive and rude..and believed that just because I have connection I need to pay in spite of knowing full well that there's a known issue

  • DavidBeattie86 David (@DavidBeattie86) reported

    @KarlMuirhead @ThreeUK Even in the town centre it doesn’t work. Used to get really decent signal with vodafone. Three are a very poor network.

  • Ianmartin_gc8 Ian Martin🏃‍♂️ (@Ianmartin_gc8) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport my internet seems to have blocked @SkyHelpTeam any ideas is this is a you problem or a them problem ?
