Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Preston and nearby locations:

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

    @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

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

  • 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

  • lofty316 Chris Lofthouse (@lofty316) reported from Blackburn, England

    @ThreeUKSupport is the app not working ?

  • 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

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

    @tatumsfluffer @ASA_UK @ThreeUK @Ofcom Yup - I have this thought all the time! Worst in London I have to say from the last 36 hours!

  • LouiseBoulsbee Louise Boulsbee (@LouiseBoulsbee) reported from Horwich, England

    @ThreeUKSupport what is the best way to get in touch if you don’t have online account (phone line not working despite saying open until 8pm)

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

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

  • Sianh10 Sian (@Sianh10) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    Son very unhappy as @ThreeUK saying he has to wait 30 days to transfer his number from one @ThreeUK account to another. Makes no sense, would have been better off changing to a diff network.

  • 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 👌

  • nicjanemonaghan Nicola Monaghan (@nicjanemonaghan) reported from Blackburn, England

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

  • 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.

  • spanglysparkly Spangly (@spanglysparkly) reported from Blackburn, England

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

  • willaur willaur (@willaur) reported from Preston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport is there issues today.?

  • AngelaFrith1 Angela Frith (@AngelaFrith1) reported from Southport, England

    @ThreeUKSupport service in PR8 area is still shocking any update on why

  • grshorwich 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.

  • 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.

  • ImtiazAfridi777 اوپریدائ (@ImtiazAfridi777) reported from Preston, England

    @ThreeUK fix yourself ffs

  • 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.

  • Graham_B23_ Graham (@Graham_B23_) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport once again my network is down for upgrades for the 3rd time in six months,But surely you can leave 4G connected as now I have no home broadband and only a weak 3G on my phone last time this lasted 4 days!!!😡🤬😡🤬

  • sandraspeccy sandra oneill (@sandraspeccy) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @mouthwaite @EE I had the same problem a few years ago!!! Have now changed to @ThreeUK and the service is brilliant. Service should be foremost always

  • nottherealjon Jon (@nottherealjon) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Tbh, if you guys can't provide decent coverage then I'll just have to take it back to the shop and get a refund. I can't afford not to have quality broadband. I've reset the thing about 10 times today. What do mean about congestion, as a network specialised I'm stumped?

  • Mrt_Kync Murat Koyuncu (@Mrt_Kync) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport This is just ridiculous. Yes, I have talked with customer service and had chat too. You guys are all repeating the same stuff just like machine. There is no solutions with you. Shame.

  • OllieFLJ Ollie (@OllieFLJ) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Good afternoon. Are there any issues affecting data speeds in OX28 area? Can just about send iMessage but can’t load web pages, or any internet based apps. Have reset phone but no joy

  • Sam_McK_88 Sam M (@Sam_McK_88) reported

    @planetf1 @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK I live and work in Brighton and experience very few network issues. Perhaps it's specific black spots or a device issue?

  • nottherealjon Jon (@nottherealjon) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Unfortunately I've wasted enough time on this. I need to use it to work and can't afford anymore downtime. A 4G service at 1Mbps just isn't good enough. I'll go to the shop and ask for a refund

  • jim_jam_ Jamie Williams (@jim_jam_) reported

    @ThreeUK I’ve had five calls from random UK mobile numbers today with the same nonsense prerecorded message about my “internet provider”. Any idea what kind of crap this is or how to stop it?? It’s just suddenly started today!

  • planetf1 Nigel Jones (@planetf1) reported

    @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK I have multiple times.. this isn't about one postcode but a general observation in many parts of the city. Sure, not everywhere but most. 4G pages not loading even with signal. looks over capacity so must be a known issue as reports will show that. Disappointing.

  • MrDunphy2012 🄿🄴🅃🄴🅁 🄻🄴🄴 (@MrDunphy2012) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport please help, I’m getting no where with chat support, I can’t access any apps or send receive data when not on wifi unless I turn off 4g and use 3G
