    @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..

    @thisispanos @ThreeUK I've just had the same issue, got an upgrade in May new phone, number new contract, I asked for my old contract with 3 to be cancelled by them.. 9 months later there still charging me for it. Asked again to cancel it and refund the 9 months and just got the run around.

  • Liam56613909 Liam (@Liam56613909) reported

    @ChatEverton @RastaMou53 @ThreeUK Im thinking of paying the £600 and terminate the contract early. Ill probably buy a new phone outright first then ill terminate and go to VOXI, EE or O2

  • aparat aparat (@aparat) reported

    @RastaMou53 @ThreeUK Same here. 5 bars on 4g and its still ****. Speeds lower then 1 mbps cant do much online. Been like this for months. Just initiated switch. Shame really been with them for 6 years bit 11 months of this is too much

  • jedmurphy Jed Murphy (@jedmurphy) reported

    @ThreeUK I have just been locked out of an account because I kept trying 2FA not realising it’s Three where the problem is - could you not have emailed/sent a push notification to say there are issues?

  • paulgrain99 An Engineer (@paulgrain99) reported

    @Three_Is_Broken I cannot even send a two line text message this afternoon! @ThreeUK really is a rubbish network. I’m off soon. 💩💩💩

  • lewgall Lewgall (@lewgall) reported

    @ThreeUK I have been asking for my PAC code for a week now and have yet to receive it. I have a disconnection URN number and yet to receive the PAC. Your live chat has requested it be resent and I’ve been told it can’t be due to further issues?

  • Jonw5555 Jonw5555 (@Jonw5555) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I spoke to someone else in cancellations who helped me but apparently there is no complaints team to handle this kind of issue? He only said that the call would be listened to and appropriate action taken. Is there really no complaints team for this?

  • macor247 Manu (@macor247) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s an ongoing issue, my fault, should’ve dropped 3 when the contract expired.

  • hindddd1983 CL (@hindddd1983) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport is your support live chat down?

  • PaulineFairclo1 Pauline Fairclough (@PaulineFairclo1) reported

    @ThreeUK not to mention technical issues with your mobile broadband! Nearly a week now with no service other than through a VPN - what's going on?

  • rchoots Ruari C♠rmack (@rchoots) reported

    @daveyboy2411 @ThreeUK True... However they should - if thiey were a resteraunt, shop, service industry, etc that failed to deliver goods or services as contracted then reimbursment is usual. why should we have to ask and chase for recompence ofr a incomplete service?
