    @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.

    @ThreeUK thank you for not helping me at all with my mobile phone repair claim, totally broken screen covered by accidental damage in your policy that you have taken £240 pounds off me and basically said tough luck. I am a long term loyal customer with 3 contracts #shameonyou

    @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? 🤔

    @ThreeUKSupport Thank you, Kim. It’s B13 9LJ but I’ve been around South Birmingham and not had any signal. Because of the message on your website I didn’t think it would be my phone, but it’s an iPhone SE. Still no service now.

    Would like to say a huge thankyou to @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport for their fabulous customer service & advice... HOWEVER... Since I've not received a single reply to any of my tweets from them I cant. (Not the 1st time in my many years with them I've had "help" issues tbh)

    ems. (@eapxxxx) reported from Dudley, England

    So @ThreeUK are trying to deal with my issue raised when they are saying it potentially is their fault. yet, their advice more than once is to take my issue to an ombudsman. perfect customer service there 3! @ThreeUKSupport

    @ThreeUKSupport I had a text this morning saying it’ll happen later today so fingers crossed. Pretty poor when the switch date was due to be yesterday and you’d managed to get my address wrong... customer for 3 days so far and unimpressed

    @ThreeUK not a very happy customer here every time I try to do live chat regarding account it says no operator available. And this is at various time during the last 3 days 😕😕

    @ThreeUK how many more times am I going to have a loss of connection just because of a mast backload?? I DONT CARE about your excuses. The fact that I don’t have network at all neither on my modem and my phone is pissing me off to actually open a law suit. Ugh fix it ASAP.

    @georgiaahale @giffgaff @TalkTalk @ThreeUK Oh shit! If it was within 14 days you can defo cancel penalty free as that's within the cooling off period. Make a complaint if you haven't already, don't let them get away with it. Sometimes they need that kick if all else fails email the CEO I can provide email ad.

    Tried to help a friend modify his @ThreeUK tariff, found the >£290 one-off exit fee outrageous. He's happy to stay, just wanted to modify. Guess what he'll do when contract ends?

    Years ago , especially during at half time I, like many others had the same problem. But since the introduction of 5G I have no problems at all but I am guessing it is down to individual providers I am with @ThreeUK.
