  • 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

  • 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!!!

  • CityliciousSJ Sadie Jones (@CityliciousSJ) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport So I have now been charged a 2nd month after clearly cancelling the chip twice now. This is terrible customer service your telephone contacts don't appear to listen or do their job. I'm outraged and think I need to end my contract.

  • field133 daniel (@field133) reported from Dudley, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Had to sort out confusion over my bill and had a lovely lady sort this out for me without hassle and even added in something's I didn't even ask for as in reconnecting me as I've been valued customer for over 10 years such a cracking call

  • Thefurrytrucker Pete (@Thefurrytrucker) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Just got a text message from @ThreeUK to tell me how much internet I’ve used this month... ...AT 00:55 AT NIGHT. **** OFF. I DON’T CARE. I’M TRYING TO SLEEP!😡😡😡

  • 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. 🙌

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    Your Minimum Term finishes on : 14/07/2019 does this mean I have to cancel this 14 June as I want to cancel it not continue. @MartinSLewis @ThreeUKSupport

  • 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.

  • 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....

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • GarethMBE Gareth Humphreys MBE (@GarethMBE) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Still waiting for a reply after 7 hours how poor is this ! Quote " We are here to Help" What help the Business certainly not the customer !

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AnnetteHall4 Annette Hall (@AnnetteHall4) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I last spoke to you on 21st January, about 10 days after I was first promised I would be paid within 3-5 working days and about 9 months after my problems with three began. Very very poor customer service.

  • RonanOnEmpty Ronan Quinn (@RonanOnEmpty) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport What the hell is going on in BT15? My home WiFi signal is unusable no matter which band I use - 3G or 4G. One second it’s working with a speed of 8mbps and it’s struggling to reach 0.1 mbps the next second. Impossible when working from home.

  • Kleggnutt Euan (@Kleggnutt) reported

    @clarecrabbers @ThreeUK So you have this problem too. They will call but they will also hang up before you even have a chance to answer the phone. They literally are the worst...

  • Kleggnutt Euan (@Kleggnutt) reported

    @ThreeUK The infuriating saga continues. Worst customer service award goes to @Three Stay away from these fools...

  • ChubbieBunny_ Bex (@ChubbieBunny_) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport still nothing has been done. They have spent 2 weeks telling me to allow 48 hrs and that it will be dealt with as “priority” & yet nothing has been done & no resolution, despite so called “priority”. My contract ends in 2 days & I’m inclined to go elsewhere based on this.

  • Three_Is_Broken Broken Three UK (@Three_Is_Broken) reported

    @Waynaldo_T @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport They will ask for your postcode then tell you one or more of these: Congestion To switch to 3G There's work in the area / upgrades SIM problem To restart your phone Fixed in 7 days They've been saying a combination of these things for nearly 2 years!

  • Gareth_J_Travel Gareth J (@Gareth_J_Travel) reported

    @mrsbadge22 @ThreeUK It’s terrible, how can they sell a product unfit for purpose. Your also not covered the same as with a regulated broadband provider as they have limited time to fix that for you...

  • abxnaa_ AP (@abxnaa_) reported

    @ThreeUK is actually the worst phone network. every week they’re having issues kmt

  • ILamsongra LamsongraI (@ILamsongra) reported

    @ThreeUK is the most unreliable network in uk

  • popsiwinkle Popsiwinkle (@popsiwinkle) reported

    @ThreeUK hi, I upgraded via your webchat service yesterday but I haven't received any emails or texts to confirm the order, when can I expect that? I don't have an order number or anything
