    @ThreeUKSupport Again pathetic customer service. I need a call back.

  • AlexLamond1
    Alex (@AlexLamond1) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    In other words, we’re in for a long one. Having to do a Zoom call this morning on the ropey @ThreeUK 4G network was not fun...

  • kevocateur
    Kevin (@kevocateur) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ICTman1076 @ThreeUK Was glad to be rid of Three, the worst performing network in my area for 3G/4G speeds. Would rate their 5G service, but there isn't one where I live in Edinburgh city centre. The fastest I ever got was 1.5Mb/s. A network built for 2003!

    Stephanie Ashford (@steph_ashford) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport is there any update on when the work in EH11 2NQ might be finished? Your unlimited mobile data home WiFi has an woefully inadequate signal at the best of times, but today it's dropping out every few mins & not even registering on a speed test. Not ideal when WFH!

  • john_rafa
    Joao R. Carraro (@john_rafa) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Since I've moved to Edinburgh last December. At home even though the signal strength is between 50% - 75% I never got a decent speed. I've opened many requests for the technical support to check that but nothing changed so far.

    @ThreeUK It's like when have a rant on a WhatsApp group chat then realise it was a bad idea.

  • KyleSlorance
    Kyle Slorance (@KyleSlorance) reported from Musselburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport The signal hasn’t been great since Thursday morning and 3G isn’t much better due to the Mifi hub being indoors

  • AGDun_162
    Aldo (@AGDun_162) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport what is going on with your network AGAIN! Numerous times I have reported shoddy network speeds on your 4G Home Broadband . And I don't want to hear lame excuses about "Work Being Carried Out" when that simply isn't the case. EH6 area (Leith)

  • paulforsyth7867
    Paul Forsyth (@paulforsyth7867) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Rpearson081 @RangersBoy8877 @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport @SkyHelpTeam @WhatsApp I want to change providers as the signal is very poor to no signal at all and that is when am in the open. Can't do this until 2021 so Three better improve or provide a reduced bill for a service am not getting.

    Anyone else on @ThreeUKSupport got No Service?! I’m in Edinburgh EH11. #ThreeUKdown

  • Johnmhunt
    John M Hunt (@Johnmhunt) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    I spoke online to @threeuk and also a shop and the deal wasn’t anywhere near as good as @O2 so now moved 2 of the 3 phones on Three to O2. These questions to “help you” obviously don’t make any difference as it’s still the same deal being offered when I moved the last one. 2/2

  • jibuku
    Nicola Hamblett (@jibuku) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport one of your stores forced a contract through on me without my permission before I’d signed anything and we’re really funny about cancelling it when I said I didn’t want to go through with it. Where can I make a formal complaint please?

  • fmcleanphoto
    Fiona McLean Photography (@fmcleanphoto) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport It was disappointing you gave no further reply after I showed it wasn’t the cache & offered zero help whatsoever. Fortunately I was able to find another way to get an add on that didn’t require logging in to the site. As I said, this is exactly the service I’ve come to expect.

  • Johnmhunt
    John M Hunt (@Johnmhunt) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @DMcGillivray2 @ThreeUK @Ofcom I had to threaten to report them to Ofcom Don as they guy was constantly asking me questions. He said he had never refused to give me the PAC code but just wasn’t getting round to it, demanding to know which phone, how much etc.

  • sharonrit123
    Sharon ritchie (@sharonrit123) reported from Tranent, Scotland

    @ThreeUK , three instant chats with 3 advisors about the lack of service, every time they “transfer” me to customer relations no one ever answers!!!! Terrible way to treat a very loyal and multi contract customer! 😡

  • ianwsmith82
    Ian Smith (@ianwsmith82) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport why ask me to do a survey with text replies then charge me for the replies. Honestly that's pretty poor.

  • davidgrierson70
    le_deej (@davidgrierson70) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Thanks for the reply. Managed to get some online chat support this morning and it turns out my number has been ported to another network. I don't know why.

  • steph_ashford
    Stephanie Ashford (@steph_ashford) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Hello. I have an ongoing router issue & spoken with someone on the phone, who's running tests & getting back to me next week. Now I'm getting an APN connection error, have zero WiFi in EH11 2NQ & the system thinks I've not paid my bill, which was taken on 2 Nov.

  • steph_ashford
    Stephanie Ashford (@steph_ashford) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport It's not my phone, it's the WiFi. I've rebooted the router multiple times this morning & if I'm lucky I'll connect for 20-30mins, then it's gone again. This god awful home WiFi is the worst thing I've ever experienced and will be why I leave you when my contract is up.

  • WolfVlogsLife
    WOLF (@WolfVlogsLife) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport I'm going to have to end my broadband contract due to you breaking it. Its been months still no LG TV. When I get in contact with customer service its same old its 10working days away. Maybe time to sue not paying for goods I've not received

    Álvaro Pétrus (@AcgbPetrus) reported

    @ThreeUK I'm spending some time abroad and I've had problems with my international roaming. I can no longer use my plan; I have absolutely no signal. I need help but haven't been able to get it so far. Can you assist me? The company doesn't seem to care much about its customers.

  • SOAMER
    Sir Richard B-H-Soame 13th BT (@SOAMER) reported

    @ThreeUK why do I get calls everyday from +44 20 3504 5286 just one of the numbers asking me about if I’m satisfies with your network?

  • Gpromo_UK
    GIFTSpromo (@Gpromo_UK) reported

    @ThreeUK "Life Needs a Big Network" You're right, when exactly are you going to actually provide it?

  • 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.

  • Jonhilton77
    Jon Hilton (@Jonhilton77) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport 3.5 hours, 8 people later, 3 disconnected chats all to add another SIM and smartwatch plan to my current contact. Terrible experience and all just to give you some more business. End of this contract and I’ll be gone after 16yrs.

  • 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

  • jimmysunny85
    jimmy (@jimmysunny85) reported

    @ThreeUK sold me a dodgey phone that now the battery swells and has basically become a bomb! I have told them this since August 2025 so nearly a year and they taking zero responsibility!! This is the customer service they provide as long as you pay them all is well!! Stay clear

    @skunkcityseeds @ThreeUK Exactly that! 💯 I done the same thing i tried a few different networks so far O2 has been pretty good for me but lately maybe the last month every so often still have signal troubles..

  • aloevera75
