3 (Three) Outage in Romford, Greater London, England

Unbelievable how I have a full bar reception of 4G+ on my phone yet my phones internet is so incredibly shit and slow @ThreeUK

@ThreeUK I can’t even get your live chat to work your signal is so bad! This is the last straw. I want to leave now.

@justifyles @richandprecious @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK Well then that comes down to choice doesn’t it. Just saying nobody has to stay in a broken contract if they don’t want to. I’d suggest speaking to EE. They have a new u limited contract and you can just pop their sim in a 4g router.

@Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK at this point I do believe this a proper joke. A comic movie about a proper fraud. I really had enough... they said they would have sent me a new sim. It happened two weeks ago. maybe they are delivering it at the same speed of their network

@ThreeUKSupport No it hasn’t. I want to leave this network. All you do is take people’s money and not provide an appropriate network or service.

@ThreeUKSupport Customer service is 👎🏻 Needs to be on point & your business department is the worst I’ve delt with.

@Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport Yes. Their marketing contradicts what their support team says. I’m stuck though as there is no other provider where I live and fixed broadband isn’t possible even though it’s central London (heritage area so no digging)

@Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport The agent couldn’t understand the difference between speed and volume. He argued that because last month I used 180gb I was obviously enjoying the service I was paying for. I was shocked and disgusted as he had the notes from past 3 months of hell and was supposedly a “manager”

@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK you promised me support and today you have failed massively. I can’t speak to anyone via chat or on the phone that can see my active complaint - I need to speak to someone in the UK but it’s impossible.

Fuming with @ThreeUK right now. Been on hold/passed around for 1 hour and 40 mins so far and still counting...Shocking customer service. Clearly, being a loyal customer with 4 contracts doesn't make much of a difference 🤬😠 #three #ThingsWeShouldCancel

@Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUKSupport I can relate to this tweet. They did work in my work area and since then it has been next to nothing. Although always 2 bars of 4G, the strength is poor at -117dbm.

@ThreeUKSupport I hope so because this is poor.

@ThreeUKSupport I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard exactly the same “hymn” - giving you my post ode is pointless - the network is broken and shamefully so. The network Is dishonest. The network I not fit for purpose in any city.

@ThreeUKSupport The real thing is - scripted response aside - the three network has never been worse. There isn’t a spot in London where a data connection can be maintained. I’d be happy with 15mb if it was reliable and available. Instead you sell a fairytale.

FYI - To post I had to tether to my partner's phone. She fortunately is on a decent network which has had no connectivity issues. Maybe I should move to @ThreeUK ... All joking aside can you sort out the maintenance it's been over a month as I said.

Hello @ThreeUKSupport your network appears to be broken today. I have full 3G but pretty much no data speeds ok the overground between Peckham rye and Surrey quays, and cable street/shadwell.

@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK please provide me with the ceo contact details I want to escalate a complaint

Anyone else had problems with @ThreeUK been trying to port a number since last Thursday to 3 & keep getting fobbed off.

I actually have to leave @ThreeUK the signal for this network is beyond pants

@ThreeUKSupport I am no longer able to access the app . It says verify email after I enter it , error comes up when I click help it says nobody available to help. 🤬

@meddymadz @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK @LukeShawWorcs Same thing here. I think they are overwhelmed by the scale of the problem and have zero f’s to give about how much of a bad effect this is having on peoples lives.

@ThreeUKSupport Yes, I’ve just checked that. I’m without a phone now, please let me know how you can resolve this. I’m able to go to my local store after work but only if they can help

@ThreeUKSupport You said I could cancel my contract at anytime as the service was so bad or I could wait for 5g. Now it’s here I’m told at first I’d have to pay £895. Then it was more like £395. I’m just stunned!

@ThreeUKSupport Hi, I do not have any service now! While on the train, in one part of the journey I did receive mobile signal, but when I reached home it’s gone again!

@ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport @Three_Is_Bro was promised that my problems would be sorted when 5g comes. I was given a discount and told I could end my contract whenever I wanted and upgrade to 5g. Now the call centre - despite acknowledging that they can see this chat want to charge!

@Geek_Manager @jaseemabid @watbe @filipecvarela @ThreeUK @EE @giffgaff Three around Central London has been very spotty for me too (although it’s worse on iPhones than Androids, maybe it’s the iOS baseband on Three’s bands). Vodafone have been my go-to pretty much everywhere. Unfortunately the support is abysmal, guess you can’t have it all.

@jopkins @ThreeUK Id already checked today because my signal has dropped off a cliff too

@jopkins @ThreeUK Yes. Doing planned network improvement today according to network status checker on the website.

@ThreeUKSupport E8 goes in and out, and whenever I am near tall buildings, the signal also goes in and out :(

@ThreeUKSupport Nope. Had to hang up after waiting for 15 mins

@8lettersuk @ThreeUK I cancelled Three after being properly evangelical about them for years: two issues bugged me they seem to rely on other people’s cells in central London many of which have long term faults and issues with billing, not being able to streamline the couple of accounts billing dates

@acameron78 @ThreeUKSupport I had the same issue in Mexico two weeks back. I am interested in why.

@ThreeUKSupport Yes. And then said it would sort itself out in a couple of hours. It hasn’t. Poor service

@ThreeUKSupport This number on your network is being used by accident claims spammers: 07462 074761.

@ThreeUKSupport I can’t even begin to know how many times you have asked me this. Please stop with the innocent act. You guys know the network is broken in central London.

@Ofcom @ThreeUK have basically abandoned their customers in large cities and their 4g network is basically gone. They keep telling us it’s our phones. Or it’s just busy. But it’s been poor to non existent for four months solid - it was perfect before four months ago.

@ThreeUKSupport @sarahwitzke Total and utter rubbish. When will you stop lying to people and fess up that 4g is broken in London. Stop making people think it’s their fault. Will you never learn!!! 😡

@ThreeUKSupport The thing is. I can handle a short period of poor service if you guys were honest and upfront about the whole situation from the start rather than trying to convince everyone it’s their device that’s at fault and denying there is a citywide problem.

@ThreeUK customer relations team is absolutely shameless! Firstly, full of lies. Secondly, none of promises were made. And third, they cannot even remember how much they agreed to compensate their customers! What a bunch of jokers! #DonotUseThree #WorstCustomerService

@ThreeUKSupport @Beth_Sells At least your actually admitting it’s a problem which is a departure from the denial/surprised responses you’ve been giving us all until this point. Perhaps a further explanation of what’s going on would go some way to appeasing your most loyal customers @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport

@M3lanieJC @ThreeUK EE isn’t great either, lose my signal all the time

@ThreeUK It would be nice if you could fix your shambles of a 4g connection before crowing about having the best 5g.

@SatanicTaxi @Three_Is_Broken @keplerniko @ThreeUK I guess we probably need to submit a mass complaint to @Ofcom not that they really have any power anyway.

@keplerniko @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK I live in E1 and work in central London and the city and the 4g signal has been on a steady decline for al least 6 months. Probably due to 5g upgrade works and gently encouraging people to take up 5g when it comes (despite hardly anyone even having 5g devices yet!

@Three_Is_Broken @keplerniko @ThreeUK Ive had no 4g at home or in central London where I work for three months. Three keep offering discounts and saying 5g is coming. Wtf. Why can’t they just be honest with everyone and say they can’t cope - it’s not good enough.

On the phone with @ThreeUK complaining about the service like every other day... I’m tired of this!!!

@ThreeUK Shockingly bad experience. Still owed >£100 from April for handset never received. Spoken to 6 Reps. Cut off twice. Waiting time c1hour. Always the wrong person. Groundhog Day. Promised repayment. Still waiting. I want my money back!

@ThreeUKSupport ITS STILL NOT WORKING TELL ME WHY

@ThreeUK @NinaWest @AttitudeMag I just wish you had supported me with half decent signal during the parade itself 😜 but keep up the good work #Pride wise!

@badassday @VodafoneIT I’ve got the same with @ThreeUK. I signed up for a SIM plan and the halfwit in the shop put the wrong surname on the form. I have my account number but because I don't know the name the halfwit used, I can't cancel, change or access my account because of "data and ID protection"

@ThreeUKSupport I can call UK numbers fine and have reset network settings on my iPhone X

@ThreeUKSupport Slow, but it's better than nothing I guess. :(

I suspect it may be time to move from @ThreeUK to @VodafoneUK as they don’t have #VirtualSim or #AppleWatch support, but the @ThreeUK #GoRoam plan is amazing. Decision later today. #NeedAllThree #PunNotIntended

@ThreeUK your app is shit...... Your service is crap.... Sort it out

@ThreeUK The worst telecommunication company in the UK , I’m saying this based on experience that has been lasted for long time , my golden advise to anyone who is seeing this ads don’t you ever start a contract with them their coverage is rubbish.

@digitaldownfall @ThreeUKSupport It’s a shame, 1y since my first question to them and they keep saying “we’re working with Apple to introduce it soon”. What a horrible service!

@ThreeUKSupport Nope, no call back despite it being promised! Ali from the customer relations team was supposed to issue a £20 refund to my account after hours on the phone with Three and the website supplying incorrect costs. The £20 has never been given and no one will help me or call back!

@ThreeUK How about getting your 4G coverage working properly before moving onto 5G.... have reported bad data connection for months now and hey.... no response.... all these years I have been a customer and you can’t be bothered to reply...... can’t wait to change provider.....

Been on @ThreeUK for best part of 5 year and never had issues. Now suddenly the internet is slow af and your advice is to change my settings🙃🤔
