  • _XeniaKara_ Xenia (@_XeniaKara_) reported from Birmingham, England

    I'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.

  • 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?

  • moseleyhydey hydey (@moseleyhydey) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUK Lads, any chance of your home WiFi thing not dropping out for about an hour or so everyday? Every evening without fail

  • 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!

  • _XeniaKara_ Xenia (@_XeniaKara_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve wasted a whole afternoon trying to resolve an outstanding issue with my services, and I’m no further along. Being passed around from pillar to post.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Bizzle_187 Tally B (@Bizzle_187) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @EE wow, spoke to a representative today to see if they want to keep me as a customer but was offered no better deal or any attemp to keep me. May jus go back to @ThreeUK

  • 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.

  • psicorps2000 David H-T 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇳🇴🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@psicorps2000) reported from Birmingham, England

    Anybody on @ThreeUK having problems sending/receiving texts? Can't send at all. Tried rebooting phone etc.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • stowtom2010 Tom (@stowtom2010) reported from Solihull, England

    @tescomobile Was a customer of yours for years but had to leave because your overseas data offering was shocking/non-existent. @ThreeUK are excellent able to use phone as if at home in most worldwide countries. You need to up your game in this regard Tesco.

  • iamjameslevett James Levett (@iamjameslevett) reported from Wednesfield, England

    I actually can’t deal with how slow SKY broadband is, not to mention how poor the mobile network is.... I miss you @ThreeUK

  • psicorps2000 David H-T 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇳🇴🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@psicorps2000) reported from Solihull, England

    @shreypuranik @ThreeUK Okay, tried this but it didn't solve the problem.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport having 5G broadband issues in B67 area

  • 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?

  • 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.

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi Kim, tried on two different devices. Same issue.

  • Gabi_Kaur Gabi (@Gabi_Kaur) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport 3 sent a text to choose a new plan, I did this + got a letter saying I am on another plan of a higher charge. Then as I rarely use 3 app, can't log on as the password rest don't work, then the 3 CS won't help as I can't recall my password, by this time my 14 days is over. :(

    @ThreeUKSupport Having to pay for data passport in Spain, can use data even though I have plenty left. Customer service people in chat just dissappear when they can't sort it

  • LaraCParizotto Lara Parizotto 🇧🇷🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@LaraCParizotto) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport W4 and W12 area. I've complained in the chat over 10 times and no solutions. My grandmother on the same plan is having the same problems. No improvements made since. Want to leave but told I have to pay a fee. I'm not getting any service for what I am paying

  • Rebeccapedia Rebecca McKeever (@Rebeccapedia) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport please help me, I signed up for the 4G broadband but the connection is awful, can't stream on it, constantly pauses, my TV works better if I hotspot my @VodafoneUK phone 🙄

  • KloudKitt Kloud Kitt (@KloudKitt) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I am still automatically logged in from my phone when connected to 4G. However the issues I'm experiencing come from trying to log in whilst on wifi or another device. The 2FA system that has been implemented does not work as the "enter" button is greyed out.

  • Shabzsh1 Shabzsh (@Shabzsh1) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I am done explaining. It's all of bedford as of yet. I have changed sims, I have received and activated new sim. I tried another sim in the phone too.. sim and phone both are not an issue. Issue is the network.
