    @ThreeUK please hear me. I called your customer service coz I have been receiving 2-3 mbps. This is far what u promise 25-35. I never had this speed. They told me to use the chat options rather than call. Still no answer. I queue on your store for almost 2 hours to solve this but

    @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.

    @Orthrus75 @ThreeUK If it’s in a specific area sounds like a certain mast is broken. Otherwise your phone settings might need updating

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUKSupport I’m actually so annoyed and the service I’ve received in the past month or has been absolutely atrocious. If anyone is thinking of joining 3 network please don’t they’re a joke who rip off their customers and the service is a joke!

    @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 the complaint was made...and surprise surprise no reply. Your Indian call centre workers were not at all helpful passing us from pillow to post.. they actually made things worse @ThreeUKSupport links they sent never worked. It's been a total shambolic joke. #threeuk

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

    @Nathan_McMillan @ThreeUK @intuMetrocentre Yep... I feel a bit bad as I said to John that the plug in WiFi router from 3 might be the easiest thing he'd need...then for he to go through all that stress, having to see his doctor makes me feel guilty especially when he was trying to cheer me up when I was nearly killed.

    @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.

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK just to let you guys know. Been told I still can't cancel my contract as you have to raise an issue again about first order (for 3rd time) which will take another 48hrs. Appalling service. Can't wait to cancel my second account

  • 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

    @ThreeUKSupport Ok, but how will that fix the website reporting the same ?

  • 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

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

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUKSupport That’s not working, says please try later. These issues having been going on all week, how much longer are they going on for? My internet access is barely useable.

    @panks_79 @ThreeUKSupport My current phone is broken, but you've saved me. There was a separate section of the Three website for pay-as-you-go 🙈 Which is weird, because I've had to go through an entire different page to buy the same phone I was trying to buy anyway haha Thanks Craig!

    @ThreeUKSupport you've cancelled my internet from today instead of 24th march as requested and I'm told it will take 72 hours to investigate your error. Meanwhile my daughter can't submit online homework and my wife can't submit uni assignments, no streaming either. Awful service

    @ThreeUK - Hello! Ever since Vodafone and Three have merged my signal at home went from 250-300mbps download to 3-4mbps. It only goes back up when I turn my phone to airplane mode on for a few minutes and then back off. Any help would be much appreciated!

    When it comes to frustrating you, just leave it for @ThreeUK They have got to be the most useless UK network ever! Unfortunately you’re forced into a freaking contract with them.
