    @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..

  • _XeniaKara_ Xenia (@_XeniaKara_) reported from Birmingham, England

    I'm not one for complaining on Twitter, but I’m letting it be known that @ThreeUK customer services is awful. As a long standing customer and given the current pandemic the service has been appalling.

  • Mystic_Pip Pip ( 🧣🧤🌧☂️) (@Mystic_Pip) reported from Willenhall, England

    @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.

  • stowtom2010 Tom (@stowtom2010) reported from Solihull, England

    @tescomobile Was a customer of yours for years but had to leave because your overseas data offering was shocking/non-existent. @ThreeUK are excellent able to use phone as if at home in most worldwide countries. You need to up your game in this regard Tesco.

  • Kristoff_Derek 🅺🆁🅸🆂🆃🅾🅵🅵_🅳🅴🆁🅴🅺 (@Kristoff_Derek) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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 🙃

  • philipbase Philip Base (@philipbase) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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

  • Jlrober Jessica Roberts (@Jlrober) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport please explain why you are refusing to let my partner return a phone that he received as damaged. He received the phone on the 14th and didn’t open it until now because he has been at work and now he can’t return or cancel the contract. This is not acceptable

  • chrismasteeniee Christine W (@chrismasteeniee) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport pls help! Twice I've called you, twice I've been cut off.

  • mikecharlston Mike Charlston (@mikecharlston) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hey @ThreeUKSupport any thoughts or help or suggestions?

  • jameslaw1992 Jimmy (@jameslaw1992) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes, no help. You just check my postcode everytime and tell me there are no current issues. The first week of my contract I was receiving around 300mpbs but for the last few months I haven't achieved 1mbps?

  • luxbar1 lux bar (@luxbar1) reported

    I’m so upset and fed up of @ThreeUK this has to be the worst network in the UK no customer service no one that knows what they’re doing and they can never help you @ThreeUK people take my advice and not because something is cheap means it’s good go to any of the phone company

  • stronghose Stephen Murray (@stronghose) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s a shame that the only part of Three that is able to talk is the Twitter handle. When a customer is trying to resolve a longstanding (6months) issue there is no one able to help. This is all being evidenced and a complaint is being made to the Ombusman.

  • lianne7382 lianne7382 (@lianne7382) reported

    @ThreeUK absolutely disgusted. Keeping being fobbed off! Phone was due to be delivered 10th dec. dpd failed to deliver. Was told dpd had an issue with wear house, then stock issue and currently on hold with someone else been waiting 40 mins so far! Not impressed. Someone help pls

  • cluck_fluster Fluster Cluck (@cluck_fluster) reported

    @ThreeUK I would if I could get a ******* signal

  • edent Terence Eden (@edent) reported

  • BecksMadeley Becks Madeley ♡ (@BecksMadeley) reported
