    @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

    @ThreeUKSupport Apparently. As a Three customer let me give you some feedback. It comes across like all your Tweets are rushed and incorrect. Starting a sentence with a lowercase letter really doesn’t look good

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

    @ThreeUK can you tell me why the coverage is so bad in DY6 ? Dips in and out or doesn't connect at all. Been like it over almost a month now. Exact postcodes DY6 8XS and DY6 8XF

    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.

    @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

    @ThreeUK Lads, any chance of your home WiFi thing not dropping out for about an hour or so everyday? Every evening without fail

    Stephen Willetts (@SteWill1978) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @vocster @ThreeUK I'm gonna look into it better, i haven't changed my contract in 10 years so technically I never upgrade so it shouldn't effect me, they do annual price rises though so it may be classed as a contract change. I think we'll be charged regardless.

    @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.

    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

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve going to cancel it as I’ve found a cheaper contract for a newer phone, I’ve tried the link so I can cancel via the ‘chat online’ option but it says it’s offline even though the times state someone should be online. Please could I have some assistance cancelling please.

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport you guys will never know peace in this life.

  • gendal
    Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported

    @lawrencenewport are you sure it’s the signal? My experience in London (on @ThreeUK) is that I have a full 4G or 5G signal yet am unable to access anything. And it varies by time of day. eg early morning on Upper St Martin’s lane in Covent Garden it’s fine. Lunchtime? Forget it. So I’m guessing the cell is overloaded or the backhaul is saturated. Either way there’s no problem with “signal”. It’s that they’re giving me basically zero bandwidth.

    @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

  • dazbel74
    Dave Ball (@dazbel74) reported

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I bought a £10 SIM card from @asda that comes with 40GB data and unlimited calls and texts for the first month. SIM was activated but no data or calls. Chatted online with a Three agent and apparently it's not a Three issue, it's an ASDA issue. How?

    I moved from @ThreeUK to @O2 and nothing has improved on signal. Blind spots alll over the places. What I really don't get why you don't get anything on 4 antena bars? And could be anywhere in London
