    Youngest son on the @EE network got the 🚨 myself, husband & other sons on @ThreeUK didn’t get an alert -seriously worried if youngest is responsible for emergencies in our household, he can’t even be bothered to come out of his room if the smoke alarm goes off #EmergencyAlerts

    @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.

    @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

    @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @O2 Try it they seem to be willing to cancel for those who escalate to the ombudsman service

    @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 🙃

    @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.

    Well I’m switching my phone to @ThreeUK. They’re the only mobile network not affected by the Tory scum infosys scandal.

    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.

  • eapxxxx
    ems. (@eapxxxx) reported from Dudley, England

    once again can’t get hold of @ThreeUK when i have an issue. gone over my bill nearly £100 in the last 3 months when they’ve been charging me for stuff completely wrong. @ThreeUKSupport

    @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.

    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)

    Ryan Sael (@RyanSael) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK I switched to giffgaff before left and just use payg without monthly plan, never had a problem since. maybe try order a new sim via ukpostbox then forward to your current address, that might help.

  • RichEIREjonesy

    @skunkcityseeds @ThreeUK I’m on contract but I’ve seen it drop out to 3g up the hills but never in town

  • stevelacey
    Steve Lacey 🔥 (@stevelacey) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK Also you consider getting a Google Voice US number for actual serious things that support it, aka everything non-UK

  • stevie_builds
    stevie (@stevie_builds) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK Same as what Jakey was saying. I was on Telstra (aussie), while i was in SEA. PAYG, and id still receive texts, but after 7-8 months they told me they were gonna cancel my plan because i hadnt recharged... luckily they planned to do that the day i got back, but if i just paid $30 to recharge after 7 months i guess that would have given me another 7 months...

    @ThreeUKSupport appauled at the customer service recieved! 2 business lines blocked for the last 6 days 3admitted to data leaking my information to another business no contact from 3 when promised they would update on fraud investigation all the time my business is uncontactable

    Alastair Herbison (@herbie_belfast) reported

    @Ofcom @VodafoneUK so never having been a customer of Vodafone today I received two letters about device payment plans being in arrears. I was with Three many years ago and paid by DD Perhaps a merger error with @ThreeUK in relation to your billing needs looking at

  • MasonIyons
    Mason Lyons (@MasonIyons) reported

    so @ThreeUK will let you signup on their site but for "security" you need to cancel via support. It's a deliberate tactic to make it as hard as possible for you to leave their **** service.

    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
