I had to hang up #threenetwork

Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@Nathan_McMillan @ThreeUK @intuMetrocentre The kid who went into me on the bike stopped and profusely apologised..the truck driver carried on... I was in such a state of shock I couldn't even lose my temper with the kid on the bike i basically got to my feet and hurried home. I've never slept properly or ate.

Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@ThreeUKSupport hi, need to speak to someone re mobile WiFi that’s not working. Tried the number on website, just cuts off
-
japred chiu (@japredchiu) reported from South Shields, England@ThreeUK please hear me. I called your customer service coz I have been receiving 2-3 mbps. This is far what u promise 25-35. I never had this speed. They told me to use the chat options rather than call. Still no answer. I queue on your store for almost 2 hours to solve this but

Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England@ThreeUKSupport @intuMetrocentre I'm not joking...yous will be the death of my Godfather or he will end up in hospital then it turns serious...that's when yous end up in trouble and get the bad press yous deserve. Under the circumstances I'm sure someone high up with Three can have his contract ended in a shop.
-
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.

T!m (@yorkie_pudding) reported from Durham, EnglandHey @ThreeUKSupport - what’s happened to your Signal in #Durham over the last couple of months. It has bombed. Shocking signal. 4G basically does nothing. Have to rely on Wi-Fi in businesses. Can you look into it? (Not a phone issue)
-
D Bromley (@davybromley) reported from Hartlepool, England@ThreeUKSupport TS248PB is one. My home address. Can’t even get signal in my own home/street
-
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

GLORY. (@gloriasibz) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK I understand the circumstances that are going on right now, it’s already difficult not being able to speak to an advisor over the phone. You can’t be dismissing a customer when they’ve contacted for help.
-
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
-
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.
-
Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England@markcatmu11 @ThreeUK I couldn't agree more mate.. ive had terrible service from them too
-
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@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.

AJU - 🌵 (@alltimeanja) reported from Seaham, England@ThreeUKSupport having nothing but problems today 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 can't even watch a video on Facebook or load a picture on twitter. What's going on...

These 3 companies of HUTCHINSON 3G don’t care about its customers in fact they have sold their database with every ones numbers on

Rob Welford (@rob_welford) reported@ThreeUK ok,stop *************** before I cancel my direct debit,why haven’t you activated my roaming pass when I’ve still got 70 days left?
-
Ropa (@premiaxleader) reported@ThreeUK I’ve had no calls or mobile data on 2 business lines since mid-Feb 2026. Multiple contacts, SIM & eSIM changes, still unresolved. Formal complaint sent 12 March – no acknowledgement received. This is now a serious business impact. Please escalate urgently
-
will the bludclart wise (@PiotrCugwoski) reported@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK completely shocked about how disgustingly your staff treat loyal customers this is my last month with your horrible company.
-
Cornish Darren Fewins (@Darren_Fewins) reportedOne of the reasons I will never use @ThreeUK is because as a non-customer, they call me frequently to irritate me about its network. Then they slam the phone down on me when I ask them how they got my number. . How on Earth do they think this is good for attracting new customers?
-
Hannah (@HannahF_24) reported@ThreeUK Hi, I’ve changed phones from an iPhone 16 to an iPhone 17 pro max, I’m sim only with you but my calls and texts aren’t working, and any sent to me are going to the old phone still? & when WiFi is turned off I have no signal at all, is this a sim issue?
-
Soarriver (@mikedavied001) reportedIs it only me or does @ThreeUK phone company just keep suggesting **** apps to download. 15 minutes out of my life binning **** I don't fuuc#ing need. If I want I'll ask for it. 😡🤬🤬
-
Luke Beevers (@beevers93) reported@ThreeUKSupport I cannot go into enough detail on the issues I've been having with you. But apparently according to your customer service I ordered 1 SIM on a 2 for 1 SIM offer, which makes little sense. Despite actually using your "connect together" program.

Sir Richard B-H-Soame 13th BT (@SOAMER) reportedIf you live in north Shropshire don’t have a Moblie contract with @SMARTYMobileUK or @ThreeUK their network is overloaded they have no more capacity and there is no work planned to solve the problem @HelenMorganMP why do we have to put up with such a bad Moblie service
