  • wilkowba74 Brendon Wilkinson (@wilkowba74) reported from Dudley, England

    Never known a provider like @ThreeUK very poor with existing customers and upgrades time for a move STAY WELL CLEAR

  • stanfield81 Michael Stanfield (@stanfield81) reported from Redditch, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Eventually. 1h 22m phone call and still didn't manage to get it paid do to the IVR and DTMF issue, and no promised call back yesterday. Live Chat agent disconnected chat instantly after waiting about 10 minites. Terrible terrible leaving experience.

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve got an iPhone XR but the phone isn’t the issue, it’s a coverage drop out since 9th August which is unacceptable as this is a business mobile @ThreeUKSupport

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    @ThreeUKSupport @JohnButlerEFC It’s pointless checking yet postcode, the website says it’s all okay, but reality is that the signal is poor or non existent

  • Fundove Kerry Weldon (@Fundove) reported from Solihull, England

    @ThreeUK customer services and prices are shocking!!! No offers for existing customers!!! Stepdaughter will be moving to @VodafoneUK

  • jassey73 🏳️‍🌈 Jason S 🏳️‍🌈 (@jassey73) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Pointless, done that before and you just come back with ‘congestion in the area’ bollocks. PAC has been requested, time to move to a better network.

  • CrackingLeaders Carol Coombes O.B.E (@CrackingLeaders) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Everything is crossed here. We're like contortionists 🙈. Will no doubt be back to you all if problem persists. Still need phone service. Please pass thanks to JJ. 🙌

  • rash61271 Rash (@rash61271) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I have lost my network coverage over the last two days, to the point we were almost left stranded while away. Could not call Uber or phone anyone for help. Same just happened now while driving and using the navigation on my phone. It's getting ridiculous now!!!

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Phone delivered to wrong location Incorrect bills Automated phone service ALWAYS redirects to wrong dept Adhoc nature of emailing bills Letters referred to as sent, but they aren’t An apparent lack of wanting to disclose complaints process

  • CrackingLeaders Carol Coombes O.B.E (@CrackingLeaders) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport so cheesed off. Can't contact anyone as three still haven't sorted problem, and need to. Been told resolved each month for 5 months, still without service at end of each month to middle of next, 1m apologies, no efficiency. Cheesed off

  • pauljkeogh Paul Keogh (@pauljkeogh) reported from Dorridge, England

    @MrPaulDH @ThreeUKSupport No still not working mine is a new contract as well for my son. My one that I’ve had a few years is working fine.

  • Agg7Aniket Aniket Aggarwal (@Agg7Aniket) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I will certainly log the complaint, but you have been working to improve your connections since the past 3 years I’ve been on this network and no improvement have been made. University campus near the city centre is 100% of high priority.

  • manlikebaldwin Kacey Jones (@manlikebaldwin) reported from Birmingham, England

    3 network must be the shittest. I have unlimited everything and still never works half the time @ThreeUK

  • Fundove Kerry Weldon (@Fundove) reported from Solihull, England

    @ThreeUK Collin actually laughing like a child down the phone! Extremely unprofessional!!! Shocking service!!! £28 a month for a sim only! I pay £17.80 with @VodafoneUK handset included!! Unlimited text, calls 4g of Data!

  • stanfield81 Michael Stanfield (@stanfield81) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport Glad I left. Vodafone Voxi way forward. 2 months now, not one issue. Paying my last Three bill was one of the most frustrating things I have ever done....

  • pauljkeogh Paul Keogh (@pauljkeogh) reported from Dorridge, England

    @ThreeUKSupport the app keeps crashing is there a problem with it at the moment happens on 2 different phones.

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Yeah @ThreeUKSupport you might all be laughing your heads off at 3HQ Towers.... but you’re customers are pulling their hair out at the same repeated advice. Turning your phone off and then on does not magically produce a signal. What next, suggest we run a unicorn 🦄

  • itsmartin2020 Martin (@itsmartin2020) reported

    @ThreeUK do you even train your customer service staff to listen to your customers? I’m sure every time I speak to one they don’t listen to what I’m saying or are rude!

  • Vitt2tsnoc Vittoria Gallagher (@Vitt2tsnoc) reported

    @SuperIby @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK No you can. You never signed up for data roaming charges. Get out and move to someone who doesn’t profiteer in a global pandemic. Be on right side of history.

  • tweetsjabs JABS (@tweetsjabs) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi team...was ordering a new sim...during the checkout recieved a message "due to system error...have saved the details and will call you on the the number provided"... Haven't received the call yet...Expected a faster service...Can you help.

  • AidanTurner1998 Aidan Turner (@AidanTurner1998) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Its a samsung galaxy note 20 ultra this shouldn't be the case on a new £1,000+ phone. Wow so rather than help you be patronising by say get a power bank what a joke. I am paying your business over £1,000 and you take this is a joke. Wow.

  • LeonieLombard Leonie (@LeonieLombard) reported

    @ThreeUK I have a contract with three for data only and I am never able to connect in any part of london as soon as I go off the Wi-Fi? I have written in with no response. Why is my account being throttled? I am unable to make use of my 8 gig of data that I am paying for monthly.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported

    God damnnit @ThreeUK can’t you handle a few people in town, was told a year ago you’d be fixing this. I don’t want you to work on 5G I want capacity on existing network - even on 3,4 or 5G it’s the same. More than 10 people and the network crumbles, let me guess “maintenance”

  • BetsyBluesBunny Betsyyyy (@BetsyBluesBunny) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I cancelled it in store but the guy didn’t use the PAC code so the contract didn’t cancel so now I’m having to pay the money for something that’s not my fault

  • leahdani_ leah. (@leahdani_) reported

    can you believe I've been trying to get hold of someone at @ThreeUK since 10am, I finally get transferred to someone who can help, and they've put me on hold for nearly an hour, and their customer help line closes in 45 minutes. What a joke.
