-
Dj Damo (@DjDamo) reported from Swansea, Wales@carsey1961 @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK They won't actually do anything though. You'll get a green ok box in a few days time, then a few days after that back to the issue identified message. It's a never ending loop.
-
Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales@ThreeUKSupport as an existing sim only customer I have been told that there is no possible way for me to upgrade my plan to a handset as it requires a credit check! I don’t understand why this can’t be done online like it would be if I was a new customer.
-
Robert Francis #FBPE (@astra46) reported from Skewen, Wales@Xavier233 @EE @ThreeUK I moved from @ThreeUK to @VodafoneUK best decision ive made. Even in the centre of Cardiff i could not get a signal with 3.
-
patella Girl (@patellagirl) reported from Skewen, Wales@ThreeUKSupport shockingly bad service from yourselves today both on phone and Web chat. Can't wait til my contract ends
-
Dj Damo (@DjDamo) reported from Swansea, Wales@ThreeUKSupport @karlhodge I'll be following suit next week if things don't improve. Been 2 months of supposed fix's but still poor service.
-
RR (@richjrawlings) reported from Coychurch Lower, Wales@ThreeUKSupport Hi Jordanna. The signal is not always 1 bar as this fluctuates when I move to different areas of Bridgend. So this is not a SIM or Device issue, this is to do with the signal/antennas in each area.
-
Matthew Bowen 🍆 (@MBowen619) reported from Swansea, Wales@ThreeUKSupport Your network is an absolute joke as is your customer service line. 3 times I've been on hold for 20+ mins today and my call keeps dropping out. Time to cancel my contract I think 😡😡😡
-
Anastassia Cassar (@Kickassempress) reported from Treorchy, Wales@ThreeUKSupport hi I still have issues today with my phone are they doing work again today. CF42 6lb :(
-
Anastassia Cassar (@Kickassempress) reported from Treorchy, Wales@ThreeUKSupport Thanks for letting me know, when I rang three earlier they said no work was happening which made me panic thinking my phone was broken :(
-
Sosig (@bully185) reported from Skewen, Wales@ThreeUKSupport work being done in Bryncoch was supposed to be completed yesterday but signal in Sa10 8BR is terrible today,any reason??
-
Dj Damo (@DjDamo) reported from Swansea, WalesAnnnndd Swansea is back to no data working. Come on @ThreeUKSupport what the hell is going on with your network it's not working anywhere. @Three_Is_Broken

Seab (Still A Citizen of Europe 🇪🇺) (@adamseab) reported from Neath, Wales@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK Hi folks, took another contract out for my daughter (that’s 3 with you now!), but the PAYG->Pay Monthly number switch is taking a while longer than specified. Any known problems? Thanks!
-
J.R.R Toking 🏴 (@aprhisiart21) reported from Neath, WalesHi @ThreeUK I bought a new phone on contract from you 2 weeks ago and I have not been able to make calls off of it or use mobile data. Your staff in store have not been helpful at all. Can you please help?.
-
Matthew Bowen 🍆 (@MBowen619) reported from Swansea, WalesLow and behold you requested the direct debit already so I can't cancel that. So by saying that the charges weren't there is highly insulting. I've been with @ThreeUK for 15 years and this is frankly the worst customer service I've ever received. Ombudsman is getting contacted.
-
Mark Campion (@MarkkCampion) reported from Swansea, Wales@ThreeUKSupport please help, I cannot get through on your phone line (tried several times over last 4 days) but wish to cancel my contract and have PAC code.
-
Seab (Still A Citizen of Europe 🇪🇺) (@adamseab) reported from Neath, Wales@ThreeUKSupport Hi folks, still waiting on this and it’s starting to become a problem - do I need to fill in the form to swap numbers again?
-
Matthew Bowen 🍆 (@MBowen619) reported from Swansea, WalesI'm absolutely furious with the customer service or lack thereof from @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport today. I've been a customer for a long time but today I'm cancelling my contract 😡😡😡
-
Neil Passmore (@neilpassmore) reported from Swansea, Wales@whiterockwales Hi Lawrence. Just read your column in today’s @WalesOnline SWEP. I totally concur! I live in Winch Wen SA1 and work in Llansamlet SA7, and for Wales’ second city, the mobile phone/data signal is awful! I’m with @ThreeUK and the service is so poor! 🤬🤬🤬
-

-
Sir Richard B-H-Soame 13th BT (@SOAMER) reported@SMARTYMobileUK @ThreeUK Yes it’s network problem as it in need of repair was told that 2 years ago
-
Ibad Jan (@IbadJan115) reported@ThreeUK your network has become absolutely terrible. The signal keeps dropping, data is painfully slow, and I’m honestly fed up with it. I’m paying for a service that I can barely use. Please fix this issue or explain what’s going on. 😡📶 #ThreeUK
-
David (@princelawanii) reportedThree Mobile, you frustrate me with how ****** the network has been over the past few weeks. @ThreeUK
-
Charlie Halstead (@CharlieMansfi17) reported@coveragechecker @AndyUK_52 @ThreeUK It’s just ridiculous. It shouldn’t be about pairing flagship phones with flagship plans. If a phone supports the network’s full capabilities, then every customer on that network—whether they’re on pay as you go or pay monthly—should have equal access to the same 5G service.
-
fox (@FoxRunTime) reportedstill better service quality than @threeuk
-
אדֶגְבּוֹיֶגָה (@IamSamuelOO) reported@ThreeUK what is wrong with your network. I am paying for everything I use yet your network is becoming bad everyday, I have noticed this for over 3months now there is gross instability. If you don’t solve this I am going to switch to @Vodacom
-
Sir Richard B-H-Soame 13th BT (@SOAMER) reportedSo when will it happen? And your misleading tv add that your investing 11 billion in to the network yet you fail to say 4.3 billion of that is to buy @ThreeUK #ukmobilenetworks #vodaphoneUK
-
Airlim (@Mainstreamlive) reported@coveragechecker @ThreeUK I was surprised by a lot about it, I used to work for three so I knew there were some good places but recently since they have merged the signal around my city has just dropped quite hard, I’ve reported it many times but they don’t seem to get back to me lol
-
TheYellingKitty. (@TheYellingKitty) reported@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK what’s going on in the HU1 area with your network because it’s ****** been over 12 hours now I better be getting some kind of compensation for this
-
Alisha (@Alishaa_Ali) reported@ThreeUKSupport Please help.i returned 2 tablets using Three’s prepaid return packaging around April 2025. After repeatedly being told there was no evidence, BOTH have now been found. Three says they were “received” June 2026 and won’t fully refund me. I need this investigated
