    @PaoloMariniUk @barmyarmyuk @ThreeUK To be fair I only ever visit London a handful of times but the service is unusable even when I have full bars. I'm not expecting super speeds just enough to send a few pics and videos on WhatsApp. In Birmingham the service is fantastic so it's a bit of a conundrum. Sort it out 3

    @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.

    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

    @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

    90 mins without internet earlier even though my phone said full signal, nothing would load, so I couldn’t pay for my parking!!! Nothing but problems with @ThreeUK

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

    Tom (@TomJersey1234) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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

    Nick gordon (@Lordgord1986) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @ThreeUK @paigebr0wn_ Shame you can’t do anything decent for long-standing customers and NHS staff instead of just raising their bill scumbags after my contract is up I’ll be taking my business else where and that’s true of everyone I work with who are on your network

  • _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.

  • LeeDawson20
    Lee Dawson (@LeeDawson20) reported from Dudley, England

    @GooglePlay how do we contact you to speak about payments taken from account using @ThreeUK mobile without permission and you have point blank refused refund. We are broken, done and over due to Covid 19. Small kids suffering. If you have a moral code then pls contact

    Jay (@JayAulum) reported from Kidderminster, England

    Exceptional customer service from Sharnli @ThreeUK customer services. Talked my mum through her options and took the time to explain each. If you have Customer device awards, she should definitely have one 🥇 #excellent #customerservice

  • 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.

  • XBigAli

    ⚘Phil; Facetious Git.. Tongue deep in cheek. (@A_Guy_on_Here) reported from Birmingham, England

    Would like to say a huge thankyou to @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport for their fabulous customer service & advice... HOWEVER... Since I've not received a single reply to any of my tweets from them I cant. (Not the 1st time in my many years with them I've had "help" issues tbh)

  • EvanD
    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport When I call the number from the work landline, it’s a recorded message from their provider saying access to this number is restricted, yet other mobile numbers are ok. The call never reaches me.

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK i have been getting charged by applepay. I have never used applepay and have 5 transactions totalling around £84 in space of 10 mins. I dont own an iphone and have no transactions showing up on my playstore acc on my android phone. What scam is this?

  • thedude310777
    Trudi Price (@thedude310777) reported

    I'm going to do as I've got no laptop or anything. I tried with Sky as I'm with them for broadband and tv for over 10 years yet they won't either. I'm currently going through Cancer treatment so not working at the moment so I'm stuck! @ThreeUK @SkyUK no loyalty

  • BritainAnon
    BritainAnon (@BritainAnon) reported

    @ThreeUK and @VodafoneUK are you aware at how bad the 4G and 5G is in Luton, specifically the whole of the town centre? It’s not about “coverage” but the lack of speed and the completely congested network you both have. You’re making millions from this town, please upgrade it!

  • gupster
    Glenn Smith (@gupster) reported

    @ThreeUK FYI network outage in Ta178tg after a power outage. Signal showing but not data connection.

  • kegger1664
    brendan (@kegger1664) reported

    @TalkTalk No resolution. No real apology or acknowledgment that I had to find out myself the order was cancelled. Passed to yet another department. Looks like @VodafoneUK or @ThreeUK will be getting a new customer !!!

  • Aerobicedge
    Sandra H (@Aerobicedge) reported

    @ThreeUK I am so fed up with this extremely poor Broadband. I've complained twice and been told it's a mast being fixed. 3 weeks later there is No improvement. It's like living in the dark ages!! Upload speed of only 3.76mb/s

  • SteWhoPlays
    Ste 🌱 (@SteWhoPlays) reported

    So @ThreeUK tell me do you usually ignore people's request to cancel the Paramount Plus add on. I cancelled when I got an email about paying for it.....guess what, you've charged me for it. Also cancelled it again today, no confirmation email or text. Poor form

  • LFCSovereign61
    Paul 🔱#Sovereign 🇬🇧 (@LFCSovereign61) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport when I'm on my way to/from work on the Underground, I notice everyone else’s phone seems to have internet connection, even in the tunnels, but my own keeps losing the signal. Why is that, and how can I fix it?

  • omnishredder_
    Omni (@omnishredder_) reported

    @ThreeUK random query, after putting my current SIM in my mifi device I bought, would it be cheaper to have a SIM only for calls and texts and one purely for data or stick with the one SIM? Existing customer on SIM only roughly £30 a month

  • ROSS_G3LL3R
    naomi (@ROSS_G3LL3R) reported

    @ThreeUK As a young woman travelling abroad not only is this very dangerous but also absolutely disgusting that you think it’s acceptable to treat customers this way just to make more money! Sort it out @ThreeUK
