  • ecakeeprighton eric bullock (@ecakeeprighton) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUK why the hell did I choose to go back to them on a phone contract awful coverage and signal 😩

  • HollyheadAndy Andy Hollyhead (@HollyheadAndy) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUK not much point in having a 5G phone if I can’t get a 5G signal in city centres like Birmingham is there? Really disappointed with the coverage.

  • MondesirWayne Geometric Rate (@MondesirWayne) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUK More network failures on Erdington B23 6NT

  • izzyali51 Izazul (@izzyali51) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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.

  • eddieclarke96 Eddie Clarke 🐝 (@eddieclarke96) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUK Birmingham’s signal strength is rubbish too in large swathes of the City

  • 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? 🤔

  • 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?

  • marieturner131 Marie Turner (@marieturner131) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Is your website and app down? I’m trying to set up a direct debit and nothing will load for me

  • Thebeefyone2 The_beefy_one (@Thebeefyone2) reported from Dudley, England

    @ThreeUK guys, I turned off my router the other day to go on holiday and since I’ve turned it back on the service has been so hit and miss. Any ideas??

  • TeamAirsy Airsy 💫🌻 (@TeamAirsy) reported from Sheldon, England

    Hi @ThreeUK please tell me you didn’t accidentally set the emergency alert to go off at 3am… #emergencyalert

  • Locket1975 Lucy Calleia (@Locket1975) reported from Woodside, England

    @cookies71 @ThreeUK I feel your pain DY6 it's just awful, so glad my contacts up

  • MichaelCFA247 Michael C (@MichaelCFA247) reported from Birmingham, England

    Do not buy sim deals from @ThreeUK they promise one price and give you something completely different, even their customer relations team are less then useful 🤡🤡 #Complaint #Ombudsman

  • ChristopherChew ℭ𝔥𝔯𝔦𝔰 ☞︎ 🇨 🇭 🇷 🇮 🇸 ☜︎ sᴉɹɥɔ (@ChristopherChew) reported from Swindon, England

    Well I’m switching my phone to @ThreeUK. They’re the only mobile network not affected by the Tory scum infosys scandal.

  • chaz_6 🇪🇺 Chaz6 🇪🇺 (@chaz_6) reported from Dudley, England

    @ThreeUK does your new 5G business broadband product support #ipv6, and if so, what size prefix do you delegate?

  • JamesRidgway James Ridgway 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@JamesRidgway) reported from Bradmore, England

    Clearly if you are a @ThreeUK customer your life is worthless. No #emergencyalert for me.

  • 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.

  • Locket1975 Lucy Calleia (@Locket1975) reported from Woodside, England

    @cookies71 @ThreeUK I feel your pain DY6 it's just awful, so glad my contacts up

  • MarkHulme_ Mark Hulme.💀 (@MarkHulme_) reported from Willenhall, England

    Hey @ThreeUK, can you tell me if there’s any issues in my area as I’ve been getting no signal since yesterday morning? @ThreeUKSupport

  • mrskhorne Karen Horne (@mrskhorne) reported from Sheldon, England

    Youngest son on the @EE network got the 🚨 myself, husband & other sons on @ThreeUK didn’t get an alert -seriously worried if youngest is responsible for emergencies in our household, he can’t even be bothered to come out of his room if the smoke alarm goes off #EmergencyAlerts

  • sabphotos69 SAB Photography (@sabphotos69) reported from Woodside, England

    @simonmaroulis @O2 @ThreeUK The mast near me. Hasn’t worked in now 19months. I understand dead spots, but I struggle to get a 4g signal anywhere. Utterly ridiculous.

  • lfmcnally Lawrence McNally (@lfmcnally) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport there’s been issues in my area for the past two weeks. Any idea when this will actually get sorted? The online network status checker gives no help

  • stevie_baby89 Thisiz_Stephen (@stevie_baby89) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Of course, but that's about as good as doing nothing with you guys.. Either don't respond or just say some rubbish that means wait even longer for us not to get back to you. So no help there..

  • MrJoestarsBro MightyK: Doolally Mood Boy (@MrJoestarsBro) reported

    @ThreeUK FIX please! I had to reset my router for the THIRD time today in way too short a span! Unacceptable!

  • kingdomzebedee Kingdom Zebedee ☭ (@kingdomzebedee) reported from Milton Keynes, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Cool, I call the complaints team, they pass me to the fraud team, the fraud team passed me to online orders team, who passed me to customer care team, to be told “We need to do X” The same X that I was told was done on 1/9 AND 9/9. Sorry to be rude, but you’re *************** now

  • Sabrina_Acts Sabrina Brown (@Sabrina_Acts) reported

    @ThreeUK I have been a loyal costumer for 7 years… & have been trying to resolve a billing issue with your costumer service team for 3 MONTHS with no resolution. I am shocked and horrified as I am owed a lot of money from @ThreeUK. Can anyone please HELP? 🥵

  • Ianmartin_gc8 Ian Martin🏃‍♂️ (@Ianmartin_gc8) reported

    @Dorsetgardener1 @ThreeUKSupport Did they get back to you ? I made a call to them today and the people I had been speaking to hadn't even passed the ticket to the networks team who some how new nothing about it. I have made a formal complaint

  • VortiGan_ Henry Mendoza 🌹 (@VortiGan_) reported

    Can you confirm work on your masts is going on today and how long you expect there to be an issue (e.g. whether it may be resolved this evening, later in the week, etc.)? @ThreeUKSupport

  • skiingscot Skiing Scot (@skiingscot) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Attempting to try and trigger yet another 30 day notice due to systems failure at three, then blaming me for the issue. 2 hours in eventually had the service turned off, 41 day wait to get incorrect charges back and 3 attempts to get agent to confirm contract end date in writing.

  • ThisIsMarkJones Mark Jones (@ThisIsMarkJones) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Actually it's not working ... I have an active Data Passport now, but I'm still not getting any data.

  • IanRobGill Ian Gillespie (@IanRobGill) reported

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Despite your roaming tax for Europe its very sad to see that I get a better signal roaming in a Portuguese fishing village than I do on your Network while I'm at work in Newcastle. Surely the work you have been doing to fix masts is nearly finished?
