3 (Three) Outage in Manchester, England

@Andyscott01 @JonJlydiatt @ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK Couldn’t care less if it happens with every network. With what’s going on it shouldn’t happen

@ThreeUKSupport Hi mark, all sorted now, I went on live chat, the problem was a cap on 600 minutes from many years ago, it had never been removed, I have unlimited but the 600 cap came into force. Been removed and received excellent customer service. 🙌🏼🙏 stay safe 💙

@ThreeUKSupport No I’m with @virginmedia but they can’t help. And pay as you go isn’t going to work I’m afraid, we want a monthly payment.

@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK I can’t make calls, a message says I have chosen to block calls when I’ve reached my standard monthly allowance limit. I HAVE NO CHARGES AND UNLIMITED CALLS. I need my phone to call my family. I’m stranded without my phone PLEASE HELP!!! @MENnewsdesk

@ThreeUK I've recieved my EOC letter and want to swap to PAYG but your website live chat advises to ring Glasgow, which according to the voice message is closed, please help!!

Nope, for some reason, @ThreeUK briefly lost signal. Restarted my phone and all fine now.

@ThreeUKSupport Been having problems with my reception, both data and voice. 3G occasionally works but 4G is really poor. I live in Lancaster but it’s also been bad in Manchester today.

@ThreeUK But 4G in Manchester CC is honestly awful at times. Not reliable at all and seems to be getting worse.

@chrishapgooduk @ThreeUK I’m having exactly the same issue 🤯

@ThreeUKSupport I just want it on record that I think you are the absolute worst network to exist I cannot wait till my contracts up. thanks & bye

@ThreeUKSupport your signal is terrible. I never have full bars and wished I had stayed with Vodaphone. It’s never been good since I moved over. Centra Manchester is dead, not good enough Three.

Been on a live chat @ThreeUK for over an hour now and it's literally a joke of a customer service. Livid doesn't ever cover it.

Dear @ThreeUK your customer service team just tried to call me. They couldn’t get through because I have no signal. The exact reason I called 2 days ago from a landline to see what you can do... #EpicFail just like my signal.

may be an airplane doesn't need to be on airplane mode as much as @ThreeUK network does. @ThreeUKSupport

@ThreeUKSupport Thanks for this would have been good to be notified if work is happening that is going to affect my service to this degree where I have extremely limited connectivity

@SimonDunmore @ThreeUK Been slow for a while, just switch airplane mode on and off if you're on your phone. Should reset the connection (although you shouldn't have to be doing this, it's not what we pay for)

@sydkerrigan2018 @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK Very! I ha e jest been released from a 24 month contract only 3 months in at zero charge and they were only too keen to prevent me going to the ombudsman service! £1374 cancelled and £100 compensation

@crybabyrainface @ThreeUKSupport Big mistake switching Three have the worst network in the U.K. ! Their own staff now admit it! All they want is to concentrate on 5G at the expense of the current network

@ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport even after your advisor assured me my address had been removed from one of your customer’s accounts im STILL receiving BILLS 🤬

@ThreeUKSupport Yes, many times! Even have booster now . It's boosting the 3G, not the 4G I want. How a billion £ company like you can't fix their network is beyond me

@ThreeUKSupport It’s shocking customer service. I’m only with you because you’re cheaper. I guess you get what you pay for Looking forward to wasting another 30 minutes for some lies 👍🏼

Think it’s time to go to @ThreeUK well over a decade with @O2 / @o2businessuk and they not really fussed about loyalty, customer service. The line used ‘it is what it is’ when I spoke to them about my contract options. 😂😂

@ThreeUKSupport Me either, considering 3 is major phone company yet can't put me through to the correct department or answer a phone successfully...I don't want to explain this long winded issue over chat...I want a phonecall to speak to someone who can sort this out.

@ThreeUKSupport And still have awful speeds. I got unlimited plan so I can use it for streaming , cause of the promises of reeeeally fast speeds. I can't stream even if my life depended on it... Stop with the lying Please! We all are tired Three telling us there is no problems.

@ThreeUKSupport My friend and I have noticed it for a couple of weeks I think. Maybe longer we were joking about how bad its gone then did the speed test in comparison to a friend's speed. I have no idea if it's only on 3g my phone says 4g

@ThreeUK your signal has got atrocious over the last couple of months round Manchester. Seems to be constantly dropping 😒

@ThreeUKSupport That's SK3 but also SK1 has been pretty pretty poor recently. I have a Samsung my friend an iPhone both have same speeds

@ThreeUK 3 has been my network of choice since you first arrived in the UK but now you are getting more expensive than other networks your customer service is suffering badly and now to cap it all you’re closing Wuntu #TimeForChange

@CraigRyan1986 @Three_Is_Broken @Apple @ThreeUK I’ve got the same issue, signal and service is atrocious

@ThreeUKSupport Laura, thanks for writing back! Contacted tech support, waiting for the 72 hours to go past, so someone to call back and explain why signal is such peace of ....!

The 4G and signal bar means literally noting anymore. Cue @ThreeUKSupport apologising & asking me where I am, but this is happening everywhere. It’s not my phone either, I recently upgraded & have the same problem. 4G Icon and 3 bars of signal & I’m getting rubbish connection.

When you been trying to upload photos/videos to Facebook for 5 hours but it’s not working as your signal from @ThreeUK is so shit in Manchester City Centre

@ThreeUK i keep getting someone else’s bill delivered to my address I’m not your customer and I’m certainly not Mr C Holt!! 🤬😡 #GDPR

@gixer11man @Three_Is_Broken @netflix @ThreeUK Not with @ThreeUK ! Been complaining forever. Barely have signal at my home. But I am always told the mast is heavily congested. And that's it... Nothing more to be done. Basically only help is if you buy £1000 device from them....

@ThreeUKSupport I’ve tried to get in touch again and always get told your system is down! I rang up and was told to email, I emailed and was told the address was no longer valid and to live chat, I try to live chat and get told the system is down - ITS BEYOND A JOKE NOW

@Mikeb20012 @ThreeUK I have a problem too. My mast has had a 4G fault for 7days, I'm running on snail 3G and calls and texts are affected too.

@ThreeUK hi, I have told one of your staff to cancel my contract which ends TODAY and they haven't cancelled it ! I can still use my phone. I wont be paying any extra because I now have another phone to pay for. Please sort this out. Thank you.

@ThreeUK hi is there a reason your 4G signal is poor in Manchester City centre. I have to know permanently use 3G to even use WhatsApp

@ThreeUKSupport Three systems are down again. what a joke

@ThreeUKSupport live chat not working

@ThreeUKSupport I have been trying to contact you via live chat for 3 days and it’s still not working

I may as well be on a dial up connection on the @ThreeUK network #slowness #useless

@MarkLondon_ @ThreeUK I can cosign this. 3 is really really slow. moved to EE, don't regret it

@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK no service in Manchester. I’ve turned phone off and back on again. This is happening far to often 😔

So angry with @ThreeUK right now!! Signal/data issues at Home AND work for the last 3 weeks and still no fix in sight. You can’t even handle complaints properly either. Utterly useless! Terrible customer service!!!!!!!!

@ThreeUK Your live chat via the app is worse than useless. Fill out the initial screen and then just says nobody available for live chat. After service issues on Thursday, phone lines are massively busy too. Not the service I expect.

Can you please fix your internet!! @ThreeUK

Worst thing about @ThreeUK being down is I've had to resort to listening to the radio in my car.... How many adverts!!! 🙈🤦🙈

@ThreeUK seems to be back down again this morning......no data yesterday morning for 3-4hrs and now the same again this morning!!! Grrrrr, come on sort this out! 1st world problems, but the 1st world functions on data and mobile internet!!!

@ThreeUKSupport Still intermittent here in Manchester for data - sometimes none at all, and full signal / 4G showing...

@EE @O2 @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK It’s a shame this has to be said, but they need to be warned i guess. And during this pandemic, is a very bad time to do this.

I can’t even be bother to argue with @ThreeUK at a time like this. 6 months until I leave this crap network

@Hazibohh @ThreeUK I haven't heard much about it so it's probably just in your area. Engineers are limited atm... Just send an email explaining the issue.

@ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK Network have been down few times in last couple hours today I was 4 hours without any type of data

@italiangeeza @VodafoneUK @EE @O2 @ThreeUK Seriously... Have you read the impact that 5G has on human health not no conspiracy research it for yourself before calling people stupid.

So barely left the house in a month but because @bt_uk is so awful and cuts out every 20mins I've managed to use all 12GB of my @threeUK data (which includes Go Binge so I can watch Netflix without using data) IN MY OWN HOME. I'd be more understanding if that was the first time

@VodafoneUK @EE @O2 @ThreeUK Why wasn't the public informed about these towers being put up when we are on a lock down. Are you stating the scientific proof of the effects of 5G on human beings health is false. So the information contained is fabricated

@ProjectsByPari @threeuk are shit at 4g imagine their attempt at 5g

@ThreeUKSupport No, I have not been able to get connected. Could I please make a formal complaint regarding my network connectivity! Thanks.

@ThreeUKSupport And that includes using all the network extending TP link hardware I can get my hands on. 6 months ago the service was ok. It has become useless. That’s the best word I can think of. It is actually of no use whatsoever.
