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

  • 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

  • AnneBashford86 Anne-Marie Bashford (@AnneBashford86) reported from Preston, England

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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 👌

  • 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!

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

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

  • DMcGin75 Dean McGinley (@DMcGin75) reported from Freckleton, England

    Is @ThreeUK network down?

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

    @ThreeUKSupport is there issues today.?

  • AnneBashford86 Anne-Marie Bashford (@AnneBashford86) reported from Preston, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport any idea when calls, texts and mobile Internet will be back?? Been down since 6:10am...

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

    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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)

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

    @ThreeUK fix yourself ffs

  • NathanRelph Nathan Relph (@NathanRelph) reported

    @ThreeUK @SMARTYMobileUK any advice for signal blackspots?🤔 my workplace, I struggle to get 3G, but 500yd up the road from there I can get 5g

  • Faewik Faewik (@Faewik) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Honestly, it just looks like you have a customer workflow that defaults to #upselling and avoiding giving credit refunds, despite the text you sent me advising I have a right to a refund that will expire in 5 weeks time

  • Joel_Bevan Joel Bevan (@Joel_Bevan) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, I can’t get ANY DATA AT ALL in BR7 5AG area. I can’t use the @sainsburys SmartShop app as there is no internet at all. Any help?

  • Paresh95241078 Paresh (@Paresh95241078) reported

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport The Broadband not working from past 4-5 weeks. Tweeted about it, called the call centre, spoke with technical team,cancellation team(Marlin) and she is unable to help and nor escalating itto manager(Swithin). Spent 3-4 hrs on call.

  • Sean_Worrall Sean Worrall (@Sean_Worrall) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Like I said at the start, your customer sevice is a joke and your website is dishonestly misleading as is your order confirmation e.mail that I can't reply to with that annoying "noreply" address you use. This is costing me time and money...

  • bredaspillane Breda Spillane (@bredaspillane) reported

    Warning! Avoid @ThreeUK at all costs - to say customer service is a disaster is an understatement! staff happy to lie & blame everything on 'the system' - 2 weeks into trying to get SIM replaced & still in limbo - any recommendations on who I should move to?

  • panaceasaurus Bex (@panaceasaurus) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport @lebara can you help with putting this through manually please?

  • stephb85 Stephanie Brett (@stephb85) reported

    @ThreeUK is there any reason why the signal is always terrible in Central London?? I can't even search for something one the map as it takes too long and at one point I had no signal at all

  • vibsiboy Vibs (@vibsiboy) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport 2/2 Usually three are very good. I am a three customer for years and I have 3 accounts with three but today I was so pissed off..Please can you investigate whats going on

  • joebarb74 Barbara Barlow (@joebarb74) reported

    @ThreeUK why can’t you cancel an account even after 2 , 40 min phone calls ??
