    ⚘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)

    Ben Hills-Jones (@beninbrighton) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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

    @ThreeUKSupport is there a problem with texting in Birmingham? My messages keep failing.

    @georgiaahale @giffgaff @TalkTalk @ThreeUK Oh shit! If it was within 14 days you can defo cancel penalty free as that's within the cooling off period. Make a complaint if you haven't already, don't let them get away with it. Sometimes they need that kick if all else fails email the CEO I can provide email ad.

    @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

    Dear @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I'm using a Pay as you go sim card. My top up is still on, I can make calls but I cannot use 4G. I went to a three store and they changed my sim card, but it's still not working. It's been 5 days since I'm facing this issue. Please can you help?

    @ThreeUKSupport I have already logged a complaint but with no luck. Complaint ref no: 31181516. Been offered some money back as goodwill after spending long time on chat and phone calls. Don’t want to waste more time going through complaints process again.

    @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

  • yasmine_smithx
    yas (@yasmine_smithx) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport honestly what a shocking service. increasing the price of my contract, without a heads up, for a phone that has shite signal everywhere

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK been using o2 and spent more than a year out of the UK and never had an issue though, i am paying monthly not pre-paid

  • Robbo2024
    Robbo$ONDO (@Robbo2024) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK Best bet use a Revolut sim. I had the same issue with 3. £12.50 a month with Revolut keep same number, 20GB while abroad and 50mins calls. Took 2 days to get old number transferred.

  • whisperity
    Whisperity (@whisperity) reported

    @IMAC2 @robj3d3 @ThreeUK Check if your provider supports VoWiFi, and enable it for your number if you haven't already. Go into airplane mode. Enable VoWiFi, and connect to a WiFi network. Wait a few minutes for your phone to authenticate over the Internet into your home company's core network.

  • Iwantmytrain
    John 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@Iwantmytrain) reported

    When @ThreeUK split their bills so you now get a separate bill for airtime and the device, it became the biggest inconvenience for the customer. Convenient for Three, not their customers. TERRIBLE idea.

    @ThreeUKSupport @VodafoneUK Sort the dreadful service out in B43 Birmingham.Reception is slow or unavailable.

  • rularulz

    @ThreeUK has worst service and reception! Terrible and not worth the money!

  • 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...

  • KRUNAL1
    K (@KRUNAL1) reported

    @ThreeUK why are you scamming customers by letting third party companies add subscriptions to the broadband service ? What is Weezchat that I have never signed up for ? £18 pounds ? How ? When asked to cancel you can’t, so you can add without my permission taken from me account but can’t cancel? How to cancel ? They send a sms ? How when it’s hub ? @Ofcom @IanMurrayMP please can this be looked into - I’m not the only one that been scammed, there’s hundreds of people

  • herbie_belfast
    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

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