  • Scarlet0Pimp Liam B (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @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

  • AdrianAndreev Adrian Andreev (@AdrianAndreev) reported from Manchester, England

    @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.

  • Scarlet0Pimp Liam B (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @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

  • jam_face Jam Face (@jam_face) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • MrNateP Nate P [He/Him] 🌈🎙 (@MrNateP) reported from Manchester, England

    @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

  • DanielDelew17 Daniel Delew (@DanielDelew17) reported from Manchester, England

    @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 👍🏼

  • chrissy__w christina wareham (@chrissy__w) reported from Stockport, England

    @ThreeUKSupport are you having issues with your network. I cannot view my security cameras and other apps that require internet are intermittent. Ashton under lyne area currently in Stockport working

  • shaykelly2000 ✈ ShayFlyingcrew🐝 (@shaykelly2000) reported from Stockport, England

    @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

  • shaykelly2000 ✈ ShayFlyingcrew🐝 (@shaykelly2000) reported from Stockport, England

    @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 💙

  • jam_face Jam Face (@jam_face) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • WhyWouldWe X-Ray Katt (@WhyWouldWe) reported from Stockport, England

    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.

  • tomwalsh77 Tom Walsh (@tomwalsh77) reported from Manchester, England

    @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.

  • Jack_T11 Jack (@Jack_T11) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • AdrianAndreev Adrian Andreev (@AdrianAndreev) reported from Manchester, England

    @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 ....!

  • smhrdstff Sam Hardstaff (@smhrdstff) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport joined your 4G Home Broadband service in M407LS last week. Poor speeds wherever I place my router (less than 3mbps) despite 5 bars of signal, which is considerably less than expected.

  • dkcoach1 David Edwards-Kiely (@dkcoach1) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Your service or lack thereof , even on line is appalling . Back to EE FOR ME

  • smhrdstff Sam Hardstaff (@smhrdstff) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, speeds are faster when on 4g, but still only around 4/5mbps. Noticed that when I can connect to nearest mast speeds improve, but often I'm connecting to a further away mast with a weaker signal.

  • deep_dsingh Damandeep Singh (@deep_dsingh) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • thomasjowendy Jo Thomas (@thomasjowendy) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @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.

  • Laura_Mouldy Laura✌️ (@Laura_Mouldy) reported from Manchester, England

    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.

  • giframac Gillian McKinnon (@giframac) reported

    @ThreeUK thanks for the offer of 5G broadband but a steady phone signal would be more useful! Coverage is rubbish -and data coverage even worse! Forget 4G - I default to 3G otherwise I get nowhere! 13 years but will change when contract up.

  • davidareader David Reader (@davidareader) reported

    Hi @ThreeUKSupport why are you giving "number unobtainable" for +800 international freephone? I've just had to use a landline for the first time in years. Needless to say, the number isn't unobtainable, but functioning telephony service from you apparently is?

  • KOKingdomOrigin KO Kingdom Original (@KOKingdomOrigin) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Still having issues. I have to put my phone on 3G just to use Spotify

  • SagnikAcharya Sagnik Acharya (@SagnikAcharya) reported

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport It says £5 & £10 but there is no option to recharge it, instead of only top up option and i lost £10 by topping up and didn't get the service to call unlimited abroad.

  • SagnikAcharya Sagnik Acharya (@SagnikAcharya) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Kindly help me get the unlimited abroad call service for which I paid £10 just sometime back. I tried calling abroad, within the countries listed but my balance is getting deducted.

  • SILlandudno SoroptimistLlandudno (@SILlandudno) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have topped up by £5 on the phone and called my home number so now I have the number, problem is solved. Thanks

  • ic_ca Jess 🌿 (@ic_ca) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Im sad too, I pay for premium Spotify and it’s not working properly 🙁 thank you for looking into it for me though!

  • WarrenT88801465 Warren Taylor (@WarrenT88801465) reported

    Currently @ThreeUK store in Chatham and receiving fantastic customer service from Wendy. Thank you Wendy you have restored my faith in Three as a company and its customer service...

  • BarrellGeorge George Barrell (@BarrellGeorge) reported

    @ThreeUK Any chance you can explain why my "loyalty discount" comes out as being more expensive than it would be for a first time customer? Been with you for over 10 years and you want to charge me over £100 more for a lesser package!!

  • leeg1001 YNWA (@leeg1001) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes, on data app doesn’t work … tried on 2 phones same issues … works on Vodafone fine … 3/4 and 5g…
