  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport This was in CF83 1XP and it’s been terribly slow for months now.

  • jrdnphp jrdn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@jrdnphp) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport This was yesterday mind! I have not tried that, but if I experience it again I’ll switch. I was with a couple of people on 3 who had full 4G signal but no connectivity so am pretty sure it’s not my device, if that helps any!! Thanks

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport @StroopWafel13 Your service at Glastonbury was virtually non existence! No other providers had the issues 3 customers did at Glastonbury!!

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport They said wait a week and try again, and it’s still horrendously slow.

  • MartynPreece79 Martyn Preece (@MartynPreece79) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK great if you have no issues, as soon as there’s a problem they give all the bull!! 👎👎👎

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Exactly the same problem I had with @ThreeUKSupport at #Glastonbury. No service unable to keep in contact with my family both onsite and off. Their coverage checker is false for the vale of avalon area! #ripoff #falseadvertising #threeuk #3

  • KrisheleG Krishele Guzman (@KrisheleG) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Horrible T&Cs usage by @ThreeUK and #Wuntu on their Google Play offer. Tricked me into charging my bill instead of using the offer!!

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RobBruceK @ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK No awful. Just spent 5 days with no data/calls due ti Insufficient bandwidth. My family and friends who were with O2/BT/Vodaphone had no problems. Worst ever. So regret leaving previous provider last month. Their coverage checker is inaccurate too

  • MK__C MK (@MK__C) reported from Barry, Wales

    Imagine waiting 30 odd minutes for the upgrades department to then be put to customer service who then says yeah upgrades is down at the moment @ThreeUK 🙃 Legit wasted my time

  • SueLidds Susanne Liddeatt (@SueLidds) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @ThreeUKSupport This mornings ‘live chat’ seems to have solved the problem. I will wait to see if I no longer get two contract bills . I live in hope !

  • KrisheleG Krishele Guzman (@KrisheleG) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @dlever21 @ThreeUK My problem was they added a new condition this time that said if you haven't used it since January. but @ThreeUK ran the offer in May and I used it then. Guaranteed they caught LOADS of people out 😡

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Been through this, you won’t check as it’s a business account and the business team never follow up. 2 years ago Caerphilly had around 40mb down now it’s about 4mb down and no one there seems bothered.

  • TicketTattle Andrew Thomas (@TicketTattle) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @omnitix @ThreeUK first 3G only network innit

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport No improvement after a restart and I tried 3 different phones so I know it’s not my phone. The phone is on 3G most of the time anyway and it is around the same speed as 4G. The signal is absolutely terrible.

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @JohnDubyaUK @ThreeUK Yeah they’re all in such a rush to get 5G out, they just seem to have given up on trying to get 4G sorted out. At least show me I’ve got a crap signal, don’t pretend it’s all full speed and awesome.

  • SueLidds Susanne Liddeatt (@SueLidds) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @ThreeUKSupport They have absolutely messed the whole thing up! I have no 4g, no phonecall facility and when I check the plan on the app I seem to have reverted to the old one. Each ‘chat’ tells me it will be ‘perfect and not to worry’ total nightmare! I’m paying for an invisible service

  • matthewthowells hi i’m matthew (@matthewthowells) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I don't usually have good experiences with customer support calls, but tonight's call was one of the best I've had. Finally, staff that I can clearly hear and understand. Unfortunately I am moving on from Three but your staff tonight were excellent. 👍

  • gingio Shane (@gingio) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @jgfoxy @O2 @ThreeUK Good choice! I love being with 3 and find my signal is much better than that on my work phone which is o2.

  • ClareO74 Clare Owen (@ClareO74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK Not great service! Look after your loyal customers #loyalcustomersmeannothing 😡

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @jaybee_ms Moved to them last month. Advise against it. Data service has been awful. Wish I'd never moved provider. Tried all the main providers and 3 is by far the worst #threeuk #crap

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • wonderwoodman P (@wonderwoodman) reported

    @ThreeUK appalling customer service. Account was hacked and charged £50. Three refuses to give money back insists it must be a credit on account. Apple agreed it was fraud but 3 refuses to sort it

  • amandajuncle87 Amanda Mills (@amandajuncle87) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport hi I have a 3 dongle for WiFi in our caravan and we've had no access to the Internet the two times we visited in Jan. Issues resolved this morning but will I get a refund for January?

  • ConlonFlay Conlon Flay (@ConlonFlay) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have tried those tips that are all on your website to no avail. I’m able to access the Three website but nothing else which would suggest my network settings are fine and that it’s just the Data Passport at your end that needs enabling.

  • goldyloxxx Goldy Loxx (@goldyloxxx) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I haven't raised a complaint yet as I am still waiting for my stolen phone insurance claim to be progressed. I have been told that won't be for another 48hrs - just hoping it doesn't get stuck again as I need my phone for work!

  • malcjames grumpanuary (@malcjames) reported

    Why is @ThreeUK such a **** network and why when your trying to contact them can you get no answer or they cut you off . Absolutely rubbish

  • gina_8819 Gina (@gina_8819) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Has my service been cancelled? As I cannot make any calls to any number

  • thedarkweeally Al (@thedarkweeally) reported

    Speed & signal issues yet three status checker claims no issues in my area - absolutely sick of this, you get about 3 weeks of decent service then problems for the next 6. How can you go from 5 bar signal to 1 with 1mb speed and there's no issue? Joke 🤬 @ThreeUKSupport

  • waiysted osama🇵🇸🇮🇷 (@waiysted) reported

    @CFCKAH @CFCDaily @ThreeUK i don’t like him at all as a footballer but wtf is wrong with you lol

  • IllustratesSte ✎ Ste Johnson - steillustrates (@IllustratesSte) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport thanks for the reply Suzi, it was actually my wife @BookMonsterAlly who is already a Three customer

  • pickled_tinker Grody🔞 (@pickled_tinker) reported

    @Ofcom Need to fix their 4G networks. @ThreeUK and @VodafoneUK have sub standard data services in most areas. Signal strength is fine, but RTT is upwards of 15 seconds and >50% packet loss. Bandwidth is usually sub 1mbit and can take upwards of minutes just for a web page load.
