    Godwin Stewart (@grshorwich) reported from Lea Town, England

    @stevelitchfield @ThreeUK Lucky you. There has never been any mobile data here a few miles out of Preston and probably never will be with it being a council estate. Network operators are not going to invest in an area unless they're going to get some ROI.

    @ThreeUKSupport iPhone XR bb3 0DU and no can’t get on there either.... getting a bit fed up with the signal issues

    @ThreeUKSupport is the app not working ?

  • AdrianBeeby
    Adrian H Beeby (@AdrianBeeby) reported from Chorley, England

    @ThreeUK Data is as ‘okay’ if you could ever get a signal but then prices got crazy. What a nightmare giving notice was - the call operators just won’t give in and let you simply cancel. Moved to @giffgaff and been happy ever since. @giffgaff you are awesome.

    @SteveyAsp @ThreeUK @EE That what made me switch from three to ee , network congestion and the fact the 4g coverage from three in my area hasnt changed in 4 years, still no coverage, yet ee offer no 5g yet but 70-110mb 4g connection which is overkill but come in hand if my broadband goes down

  • bennydonagain
    Sam Donagain (@bennydonagain) reported from Blackburn, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Nope. Not a chance Stephie. I expect you to be busier than normal but service at the minute is shocking. I’m looking at upgrading my phone very soon and with what has gone on I may have to look elsewhere which I don’t really want to do being a customer of yours for years.

  • dave6018
    David (@dave6018) reported from Penwortham, England

    @SteveyAsp @ThreeUK @EE Exactly. But three are making it sound amazing and reality its terrible, yet ee speed is not headline grabbing but very usable in built up congested areas which i would take all day long

    @ThreeUK Nah, don't give a shit!

    @ThreeUK I would like to make a complaint about your staff customer service skills. My home broadband isn’t working either

  • Dannymaddog
    Danny McKeown-Henshall (@Dannymaddog) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @PeterBayliss @Ofcom Must be a local issue for you - I’ve been relying on @ThreeUK for broadband as my @virginmedia 100mbps fibre line has been epically slow even phone calls made on Wifi calling are bad, switch to mobile and it’s perfect 👌

  • Geo1604
    George Caulfield (@Geo1604) reported from Leyland, England

    @ThreeUK why is your signal so shit time for a change I think

  • chengy888
    Danny Cheng (@chengy888) reported from Blackburn, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport why have i just gone on the app to correct my direct debit details and it is in someone elses name and their account details? Data protection breach as i can see their billing details? Contactled live chat to be told noone can reply due to technical issue

  • GayToryJon
    Jonathan (@GayToryJon) reported from Preston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport It was. But having never missed a payment in 15 years you’d think this would count for something. Clearly not.

    @GaffaTV @ThreeUK Same where I am too, can get three signal on my tablet but not my phone. Both on three

  • KerryM811
    K e r r i (@KerryM811) reported from Horwich, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I contacted you last month to cancel a contract-I was advised, to avoid paying a cancellation fee,I needed a pac code to give to new provider(even tho im not taking the number)another monthly payment has now been taken and still no code received. How do I cancel?

  • GayToryJon
    Jonathan (@GayToryJon) reported from Preston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Tried that before. Im pretty confident it’s not my phone it’s your service. Three has already admitted my signal is poor at home, I have a discount to my bill every month as you know this is an ongoing issue. Other 3 users are noticing, and telling you, the same.

    sorry I'll take it back because the issue is with the @ThreeUK I'm using the ZTE 5G Router is absolutely trash please EVERYONE AVOID using it, the amount of stress and issues ive been having with it is unbelievable, now with the Vodafone merge my bandwidth has dropped too. Awful

  • GayToryJon
    Jonathan 🇺🇦 (@GayToryJon) reported

    How odd, whenever I get one of these calls claiming to be from @ThreeUKSupport and I tell them I’m 3 staff (I’m not) so if they tell me their name and staff code so I can locate them in the company directory they always hang up. Almost as if they weren’t really from 3….

  • 4ston420
    Aston (@4ston420) reported

    @skunkcityseeds @ThreeUK Ooh I didn't know they merged with Vodafone 😐 that says alot tbh... They upped my bill not to long ago and I said I was going to leave what not for a better deal.. they didn't offer anything better same plan same signal more money... Make it make sense 🤔 just daylight robbery

  • SkaterMadnes
    Alexander Bragin (@SkaterMadnes) reported

    @tsbains64 @ThreeUK The whole thing is ****. I am leaving Three as a result

  • BambieBambini
    Kitty Coco (@BambieBambini) reported

    @ThreeUK Warning for 3 PAYG Users They cut off my service and kept my remaining credit, claiming no chargeable activity for 6 months, despite a recent call I have the logs on my phone to prove. This is the last time they will rob me. I’m switching to another provider.

  • 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 !!!

  • Hannah_Penn
    Hannah Penn (@Hannah_Penn) reported

    @threeuk Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. Mis-sold a 24m SIM-only contract, assured me twice it was cancelled (once after 2 hours on the phone), cases all closed. Now you’ve reinstated it AGAIN, and sent a bill. This is appalling. I will NOT be paying. Sort it out.

  • RichEIREjonesy
    Richie Jay (@RichEIREjonesy) reported

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

  • AntonyAttree
    Antony Attree ☘️ (@AntonyAttree) reported

    @ThreeUK can you please explain to me why in the last few weeks your network coverage has become so bad in the BS26 area?? Struggling to send & receive calls & messages,internet is non existent! I have to walk to areas to find signal? What’s goin on

  • MarkChappe93649
    Mark Chappell (@MarkChappe93649) reported

    @ThreeUK why do you have illogical proceedures that don't allow the account holder, but non phone user, to cancel the contract when have passed security validation but not have access to a passcode? Seems like deliberate contract frustration to enforce additional charges @Ofcom
