  • 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

  • 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.

  • SunderlanDave 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

  • gloriasibz 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.

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUK the complaint was made...and surprise surprise no reply. Your Indian call centre workers were not at all helpful passing us from pillow to post.. they actually made things worse @ThreeUKSupport links they sent never worked. It's been a total shambolic joke. #threeuk

  • timhardinguk Tim Harding (@timhardinguk) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @ThreeUKSupport #makeitright contract ends in 14 days, can’t upgrade your system #sucks loops in circles !

  • 19bootsy68 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.

  • 19bootsy68 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.

  • japredchiu 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

  • dibbs1967 Dibbs (@dibbs1967) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @ThreeUK @Ofcom Waited over 4 hours yesterday. Disconnected 4 times. 1 hour 15 mins waiting inline today and as i got to position 1.....yup disconnected. Shocking service and held hostage.

  • SunderlanDave 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

  • 19bootsy68 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.

  • 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

  • gloriasibz 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

  • 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

  • gloriasibz GLORY. (@gloriasibz) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUKSupport I’m actually so annoyed and the service I’ve received in the past month or has been absolutely atrocious. If anyone is thinking of joining 3 network please don’t they’re a joke who rip off their customers and the service is a joke!

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

    @ThreeUKSupport very very poor service

  • 19bootsy68 Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    What 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

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

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

  • 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

  • partydoco Doco (@partydoco) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport seeing as your live chat people have no clue any chance you can help? Got a new contract in September yet you are still charging me for the old one every month. This should be relatively straight forward

  • ThembaniMpofu17 Yena Tembarny (@ThembaniMpofu17) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It seems the problem is both indoors and outdoors... I can only get better signal when I am on the motorway only.

  • hourtom tom (@hourtom) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport is there any issues with your 4G in SE15 (Peckham) area? my home broadband is being noticeably bad this week.

  • islamictalksetc ISLAMICTALKSetc (@islamictalksetc) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport it's not trouble shooting. it's the whole experience. ordering. customer service. not knowing what I ordered.

  • Sm00129 Steve Morris (@Sm00129) reported

    @ThreeUK joke of a call centre, crap customer service, verging on scam. Try to cancel redundant data sim, 4 phonecalls, pay outstanding bill in full then weeks later new outstanding bill. Threatened with debt collection over £4.26. Will be cancelling phone at first opportunity

    @ThreeUKSupport The signal is so awful. And calls dropping and Internet ****. MK40 2TA

  • Jo_Tompkins Joanna (@Jo_Tompkins) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport absolutely terrible experience calling your support team just now and still don’t have an answer to my question. None of the three people I spoke to called me by name, apologised for the issues I’m encountering or even sounded interested in what I was saying. 1/3
