Tom (@stowtom2010) reported from Birmingham, EnglandTerrible customer service from @ThreeUKSupport - they confirm compensation WILL be offered for the recent outage but ONLY if you call them on a number that you can’t get through it. It’s a never-ending vicious circle and designed so that you won’t claim. Awful. Time to leave...
-
Xenia (@_XeniaKara_) reported from Birmingham, EnglandI'm not one for complaining on Twitter, but I’m letting it be known that @ThreeUK customer services is awful. As a long standing customer and given the current pandemic the service has been appalling.
-
Akramantonio (@Akram_Antonio9) reported from Birmingham, England@ThreeUK got to say the worst customer service ever, I lost my phone and I requested to to barred my phone and sent me proof of usage 3 weeks and still didn’t receive anything. Your member relationship team not doing what they promised #Disappointment

Emma Casey (@EmmaJCasey) reported from Birmingham, England@ThreeUKSupport I’ve going to cancel it as I’ve found a cheaper contract for a newer phone, I’ve tried the link so I can cancel via the ‘chat online’ option but it says it’s offline even though the times state someone should be online. Please could I have some assistance cancelling please.

Eddie Clarke 🐝 (@eddieclarke96) reported from Birmingham, England@ThreeUK Birmingham’s signal strength is rubbish too in large swathes of the City
-
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.
-
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.
-
