Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUKSupport I got it connected to my Xbox but it couldn't update... It connected to my phone but its right slow. My Godfather is away atm. Can he cancel...i fear this will be a total waste of money for him with being a pensioner.
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUKSupport Your Indian call centres makes it very hard to sort anything out when you get passed to technical for technical to say they are putting you through to technical because this technical can't give the go ahead to cancel the contract. You're a sinister comedy act #cybermuggers.

✌Bruce Wells⚽ (@bruceywells) reported from Walker Gate, England@ThreeUKSupport why is my phone signal so bad today all of a sudden? Please help
-
Glenn (@GlennLovatt) reported from Hartlepool, England@Kingcanners @RJPJournalism @ThreeUK I know it’s easy to say now, but I never liked the 3 sponsorship. I don’t think it did the look of our kits any favours either! 👋3
-
Dave Lee (@SunderlanDave) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England@ThreeUKSupport It is now over a week since the incident and apart from receiving a bill for early termination yet you knew he didn't ask for the PAC code we have had no correspondence from 3 we are going to the press on this and you better have answers for them as we are contacting your CEO
-
Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England@ThreeUKSupport No its still not sorted.... despite seeing proof of age etc at the time in your shop where they asked me to go, when i got there your systems were down so it wasnt sorted. You wont sort it till i do another 40 mile round trip to the nearest shop yet again
-
Dave Lee (@SunderlanDave) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England@ThreeUKSupport We are still getting nowhere with this a now just received a bill for early termination fee... Your customer service is absolutely appalling what a shambles if a company you are
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUKSupport This is how much your uncaring and unhelpful company is affecting him...he is so worried its stressed him out so much his brother wants him to visit his doctor. Its absolutely disgusting that a pensioner who served for our country can be treated so bad. #Shameless #threenetwork
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUKSupport No...and it looks an impossible task to get his refund he is rightly owed. The Indian advised my Godfather he should claim the 2 month payments for the service he never had back from his bank...or credit someone else's 3 account for John to get the fefund from them.
-
GLORY. (@gloriasibz) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK honestly I’m tired of your customer advisors transferring me to complaints when I have not suggested that I want to speak to complaints team. The queue wait is absolutely ridiculous to begin with. They should be able to try and resolve the solution first
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUKSupport If we do.. I don't expect whoever we speak to to go and and on...i want John to have the right to cancel as soon as he requests to cancel. I phone him twice a day to make sure he is ok...he is the closest thing to me after my mother, my children and my sister.
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUK thank you...you make it impossible to cancel. You are a disgrace...after phoning India for my elderly Godfather to cancel the 18 month plug in 4g wifi that could hit any speeds we were past from pillow to post by India call centre workers. I had to hang up #threenetwork
-
Dadey Kirkup (@dadeylfcdaft) reported from Peterlee, England@ThreeUK I'm trying to reset my my password etc etc to get on my account but the temporary password isn't working what's being text to me?? Can you help
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@Nathan_McMillan @ThreeUK @intuMetrocentre Yep... I feel a bit bad as I said to John that the plug in WiFi router from 3 might be the easiest thing he'd need...then for he to go through all that stress, having to see his doctor makes me feel guilty especially when he was trying to cheer me up when I was nearly killed.
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUKSupport That's what I've had to do...i don't want no nonsense once I take over or I will hang up and take the @Ofcom route. I think to make it even easier is that there is an attachment on John's file that there is only one thing we need and that is cancellation of the contract.
-
Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, EnglandWhat a bunch of un professionals @ThreeUK #threeuk #threenextwork @ThreeUKSupport are...they tell us to fill an online complaint form out for it to say not a valid postcode. John my Godfather also doesn't have an email address...So we are no further forward. #HarryandMeghan #iran

Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@SteveBlythe @ThreeUKSupport They couldn’t even be arsed replying! @ThreeUK must be the worst network for data speed, my days are numbered with them.....
-
Tedstercal (@tedstercal) reported from Sunderland, England@ThreeUKSupport Don't think it's a Samsung issue, as I said my work phone conects ok which to me points toward the phone wifi accessibility through 3! Very disappointing reply!

Kitty Coco (@BambieBambini) reported@ThreeUK Warning for 3 PAYG Users They cut off my service and kept my remaining credit, claiming no chargeable activity for 6 months, despite a recent call I have the logs on my phone to prove. This is the last time they will rob me. I’m switching to another provider.

-
Joanne (@J08NNE) reported@EmmaAndrews95 @ThreeUK @iD_Mobile_UK thanks, my issue is with the broadband since this morning. I've reported it to support and they tried to troubleshoot it, then just said similar to the attached "we are aware of a problem and working to resolve it"
-
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
