Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Houghton-Le-Spring and nearby locations:

  • MXOFO Lee (@MXOFO) reported from Newburn, England

    My @ThreeUK contract ends at the end of this month. Got an email the day before they announced they’re dropping their free roaming trying to convince me to renew. No thanks. I’m off to @giffgaff. I don’t give my custom to companies that fail to keep their word.

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England

    @ThreeUKSupport very very poor service

  • andrewkane80 Andy Kane (@andrewkane80) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK just to let you guys know. Been told I still can't cancel my contract as you have to raise an issue again about first order (for 3rd time) which will take another 48hrs. Appalling service. Can't wait to cancel my second account

  • feenjo Jo 💙💙 (@feenjo) reported from Murton, England

    @ThreeUKSupport it there a network issue is SR7 area as both my mobile and broadband seem to be effected

  • stobbsmeister Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Seaham, England

    @ThreeUK counting down the days until I'm able to leave. I've overlooked the poor CS and data dead spots however the reintroduction of roaming charges (after banging the go roam drum for years) is the final straw. I'm sure I won't be the first or the last to jump to @O2

  • remenos Joanne Emerson (@remenos) reported from Sherburn Hill, England

    So frustrated with @ThreeUK now. Parents’ mobile broadband won’t work and @ThreeUKSupport won’t talk to me despite power of attorney. So essentially elderly parents being charged for service they’re not receiving and no way of fixing it #customerservicefail

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Ive been to the shop nearby (40mile round trip like i was asked to, got there and your systems were down!!!! Just going round in circles here, very poor service

  • Colins_kitten Julie 'Jules' Walker (@Colins_kitten) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUK your app is busted and has been for weeks now! Forgotten password and it says it has sent an email or text and I never get one. Have tried 6 or 7 times now. Your live chat doesn't work on the app either. Not impressed!! May leave for a company that can make a working ap

  • DezyByers33 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

  • andrewkane80 Andy Kane (@andrewkane80) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK Terrible service when trying to upgrade phone. Placed order on 16th January for delivery 26th January. Still no phone, waited for issue to be resolved before trying again, but still can't be done.....

  • basherdrummer Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Damn. Come on Scotty, we’ve waited long enough now, tell them to hurry up lol

  • andrewkane80 Andy Kane (@andrewkane80) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Jesus wept, I can't even cancel the contract as you are currently trying to figure out, again, why the first order didn't work. Hopeless

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England

    @markcatmu11 @ThreeUK I couldn't agree more mate.. ive had terrible service from them too

  • RobLow_7 W. W. L. D. ? He'd stay at home. (@RobLow_7) reported from Sacriston, England

    @nelliecarty @ThreeUK same with @skytv as long as you pay and don't complain they treat you with disdain. All they're interested in is new custom

  • danieljohnallis Daniel Allis 🇬🇧 (@danieljohnallis) reported from Gateshead, England

    @_macca_pacca @SpeedtestAwards @ThreeUK It’s everywhere in town, I’ve been all over the north east when I was on 3 and the signal was crap and so were the speeds

  • GlennLovatt 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

  • basherdrummer Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport do you support the cellular Apple Watch yet? If not will you be?

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Washington, England

    @ThreeUK service is appalling like.... i ring you up told to i have to go 20 mile to the nearest shop. Get there and your systems are down. Waste of journey and time

  • SocialHermitCal 'Camerado' Cal Desmond-Pearson (The Social Hermit) (@SocialHermitCal) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Hello @ThreeUK, as a long time customer, I sincerely hope that you guys are not planning to advertise on GB News at any point. #DontFundGBNews

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @rutty_uk @ThreeUK Cheers, some decent plans/prices there. Was always a bit concerned about them not having a help number but I think most networks do it all on social media anyway.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • LovettLisa Lisa Lovett (@LovettLisa) reported

    @ThreeUK I need to report a death. I’ve waded through all of your options on the 333 number (I am a customer too), and there’s no option suitable. Who can I call? This is a very upsetting time - I don’t want lots of menu options, just a direct number.

  • Cpl_Wyllie Nathanial L A Wyllie (@Cpl_Wyllie) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport trying to get through to the call center for the last 20 mins for my partners account which ended in 2020 found out you guys still be charging and CRS wants money for a finished contract any help

  • OrchardMan58 Mike Collier (@OrchardMan58) reported

    I'm very disappointed with @ThreeUK I've just spent an hour and a half on their online chat trying to resolve an issue with sharing my phone allowances on my watch. I was connected to five or six different agents and got contradictory advice. #poorservice #lookingelsewhere

  • QumeiiMeii Meii (@QumeiiMeii) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport For two weeks now I’ve had no service on my phone. I tried all the troubleshooting three suggests and still nothing. My family members on three have full bars with no issues so I know it’s not any work in the area. I even ordered a new sim and still nothing. Paying for no bars.

  • moonpunk moonpunk (@moonpunk) reported

    Is it just me or is mobile data in this country getting worse? I’m on @ThreeUK and despite having 4 out of 5 bars and showing 4G connection I regularly cannot connect to anything?! It never used to be like this

  • iD0ts Dots ☠️ (@iD0ts) reported

    Hey so uh @ThreeUKSupport your website live chat isn't working. I'm needing a bit of help getting my old iPhone 4S unlocked.

  • RetroWarwick Matt Phillips (@RetroWarwick) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport This has been like this for 9 weeks. You keep saying "it'll be fixed tonight". Who can I speak to in the uk because the service is terrible and quite frankly I don't believe what you say anymore.

  • QumeiiMeii Meii (@QumeiiMeii) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I was able to and sadly chat couldn’t help either. I tried all the suggestions and got no results. I really think at this point you’ve mistakenly deactivated my sim or something.

  • frdbmbrdg Fred Bambridge (@frdbmbrdg) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Two weeks later, nada. So what *can* you do? I now need the UK number to unlock my email and Xbox account. Please help.

  • ThreeUKSupport ThreeUKSupport (@ThreeUKSupport) reported

    @Pixie89sa We definitely don't want to prolong this, I promise all the questions I'm asking are working towards a resolution. It looks like you're following @threeuk, rather than @threeuksupport, this seems to be the issue. If you could do that, I'd be very grateful -Joe
