    @ThreeUK my wife keeps dropping out but phone service is fine, this seems to be happening on evenings consistently! I am in B14 area of Birmingham. Is there a reason for this!

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport when my contract is about to expire, how much notice do I need to give you to cancel my account?

  • Adamhayes_85 Adam Hayes (@Adamhayes_85) reported from Wednesfield, England

    The phone signal on the 3 network in Wolverhampton is awful. Needs to be sorted out @ThreeUK

  • hamilton_david David Hamilton (@hamilton_david) reported from Wythall, England

    @ThreeUKSupport absolute joke your customer services are! Three calls today, three conflicting responses. You’re just making it difficult to leave your rubbish network!

  • BilalRaja_22 Bilal Raja (@BilalRaja_22) reported from Tidbury Green, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I have already logged a complaint but with no luck. Complaint ref no: 31181516. Been offered some money back as goodwill after spending long time on chat and phone calls. Don’t want to waste more time going through complaints process again.

  • SteWill1978 Stephen Willetts (@SteWill1978) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @vocster @ThreeUK I'm gonna look into it better, i haven't changed my contract in 10 years so technically I never upgrade so it shouldn't effect me, they do annual price rises though so it may be classed as a contract change. I think we'll be charged regardless.

  • ederzavala Eder Zavala (@ederzavala) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport terrible mobile broadband in B15 and B17 for a couple of weeks now. It didn’t use to be like this. I’m changing provider.

  • richyj1504 Rich J (@richyj1504) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Big error of @ThreeUK to scrap Go Roam. It’s what put it out there as a big benefit amongst its competitors in the past. Now Three are joining the ranks and I think they’re going to find their customer numbers plummet as a result.

  • ForbesProducer Forbes Coleman 🇬🇾🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@ForbesProducer) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUK My signal has been appalling across the entirety of Birmingham for weeks. Even switching to 3G makes no difference. Are there issues? Over subscribed network? What am I paying for? 🤔

  • SteWill1978 Stephen Willetts (@SteWill1978) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @vocster @ThreeUK Me and my wife had it purely for the travel aspect, I've got no issues with the service at all but I will be looking around now, sky say they're not going to bring in charges for roaming but I've heard mixed reviews.

  • pixiero79 RosieGee (@pixiero79) reported from Solihull, England

    @ThreeUK Recently upgraded my phone, days later have information about my insurance through post - never asked for it, it wasn’t mentioned and I don’t want it. Phone number to cancel not working, can’t speak to anyone about it, not happy.

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport When I call the number from the work landline, it’s a recorded message from their provider saying access to this number is restricted, yet other mobile numbers are ok. The call never reaches me.

  • Freaky_Radish Benn Sanderson (@Freaky_Radish) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I keep getting messages and emails to say my contest is ending but I started a 24 month contract last year. Please help.

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport hi. My mobile number starts with 07305. It originally was issued by @virginmedia. I’ve had some companies try to call me (including the landline where I work) saying calls to this number can’t be connected or the number isn’t available. Is there an easy fix?

  • Pov3yJ John Povey (@Pov3yJ) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @ThreeUKSupport having 5G broadband issues in B67 area

  • And_im_wasted Luke (@And_im_wasted) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi Fraser, I’ve been sent the wrong one. I was then told to visit a Three store, but the Three store couldn’t give me a new SIM. Happy to DM you the details if you’re willing to help?

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @XiaomiUK @Android @ThreeUK Hey! What usually happens is, when I start a message with another 'Chat' user it can still be on SMS. I'm settings Chat will dispy as Connecting & sometimes fail. Or when another messages me they see it as txt not Chat. There's been a software update recently, it seems better now

  • melissaxoo Melissa Emma (@melissaxoo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Yesterday when I spoke to someone on the online chat they assured me that it would be sorted by then of yesterday & I’ve checked today & it’s still not been reversed to my old contract... can’t believe how shocking the service has been!!!! No one can answer me 2/2

    @ThreeUKSupport any idea when we will have a signal back please. Mast has been inoperative for weeks- impossible to stay connected to calls. Been patient but nearly 3 weeks now with no signal

  • aishaa_ldnn aishah (@aishaa_ldnn) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have been a customer for over 10 years and this is INCREDIBLY disappointing and frustrating ESPECIALLY when I need my new phone for work.
