    @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

    @brattandeaf @ThreeUKSupport Apparently I heard somewhere that 3 network used to be good because they share the mast with o2 or EE, but now other network cut tie with them. Therefore 3 have to have own mast this is why it become useless.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport the quickest way to get support from three is to leave lol... awful company to have a phone with... absolute shambles and scam artists

    @ThreeUK is by far the worst phone company I have ever been with. You tell them point blank you can’t pay when you lose your job because of a pandemic and they still pile on the charges 🙃

    @thisispanos @ThreeUK I was told they were investigating my complaint, but that was 3 weeks ago and still got nothing, so I stopped the direct debt at the bank, but I was warned that they'd send the outstanding balance to enforcement. Ive tried contacting martin lewis, Money Saving Expert for help..

    @ThreeUKSupport Please help.i returned 2 tablets using Three’s prepaid return packaging around April 2025. After repeatedly being told there was no evidence, BOTH have now been found. Three says they were “received” June 2026 and won’t fully refund me. I need this investigated

    Airlim (@Mainstreamlive) reported

    @coveragechecker @ThreeUK Nah no favours I could call in but then I would want everyone to get good signal and at least something decent lol ah the masts they were a good thing, at least you get some really good stuff lol

  • Mainstreamlive
    Airlim (@Mainstreamlive) reported

    @coveragechecker @ThreeUK I was surprised by a lot about it, I used to work for three so I knew there were some good places but recently since they have merged the signal around my city has just dropped quite hard, I’ve reported it many times but they don’t seem to get back to me lol

  • Buckstewerbuck1
    The Chinese Don Juan (@Buckstewerbuck1) reported

  • robincornelius
    Robin Cornelius (@robincornelius) reported

    Terrible day for getting work done today @bt_uk internet is down as there is planned maintenance that no one was informed about and no @ThreeUKSupport mobile data at work despite 3-4 bars of signal. This happens too often on your network had to go for a drive to get data

    Matchday Drinkers 🍻 (@BFCDrinkers) reported

    @NameIsRichard @ThreeUK My deal runs out very soon so bye bye. Tolerated bad reception for sake of the deal and four in the house are on Three but no more

    @ThreeUK bro, why is the caffe nero reward activated immediately and then needs to be used in an hour??? Change it back wtf

  • GayToryJon
    Jonathan 🇺🇦 (@GayToryJon) reported

    I think next time I’m arranging an upgrade of my mobile phone contract before I commit to a new one with @ThreeUK I will check which courier company they’re using for the delivery. If it’s @dpduk_ I will probably look elsewhere after the issues the last 2 times.

  • satheeshvad
    Satheeshkumar Rajendran Ph.D (@satheeshvad) reported

    @ThreeUK Hi three, without any notification, my number has been discontinued because I'm abroad, but I paid some of the months. Before I left the country, I asked your team; they said it was not possible to terminate, and now, without any notification, the number is not in use.

  • axtumnbreeze
    chey (@axtumnbreeze) reported

    I was under the impression that with the Vodafone3 merge, I'd get better signal, so sorted a new sim and phone through 3 as I never had an issue. Since the masts were being merged, its been awful. Its ridiculous @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK never had this many signal issues beforehand🙈
