  • moonpunk moonpunk (@moonpunk) reported from Great Notley, England

    @ViliLe @ruskin147 @ThreeUK I'm with Three UK and have the exact same problem. In fact last week I had a go at them because Three UK cold-called me to try and sell me more services! I told them that they are in a privileged position to have my number, and it's a blatant misuse to use it to cold-call me!

  • AdamLewisBull AdamLewisBull (@AdamLewisBull) reported from Braintree, England

    Never go with @ThreeUK for buisness if you want any kind of decent customer support. You get what you pay for

  • HarveyMnh1972 2e0mnh (@HarveyMnh1972) reported from Tiptree, England

    @ThreeUK That's is wrong because I just turned my phone off and then on again still no signal

  • dan_upson Daniel Upson (@dan_upson) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @ThreeUK i see all the 5g network advertisement but i can't even get decent 4g in the middle of chelmsford city cm2

  • wpoel William Poel (@wpoel) reported from Little Baddow, England

    Voice over WiFi is also down @ThreeUKSupport ....we understand nothing works all the time. But it might help if you put less effort into sales and marketing until the service is working. Will there be with any possibility of roaming with Vodafone?

  • HarrisonKent1 Harrison (@HarrisonKent1) reported from Mayland, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, I’ve got no signal at CM36EJ today

  • mikemackay Mike Mackay (@mikemackay) reported from Witham, England

    @ThreeUK Any idea or ETA on eSim support at all? 🙏🏻

  • wpoel William Poel (@wpoel) reported from Little Baddow, England

    @8CW @ThreeUKSupport Three seems to be under-resourced in the UK. Some industry insiders are surprised it works at all. At least it could make more of an effort to keep users updated during an outage.

  • HarrisonKent1 Harrison (@HarrisonKent1) reported from Mayland, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, I’ve got no signal at CM36EJ & I’ve checked on your website & it says the site is currently being upgraded, does this mean I’ll finally have 4G. Also, what timeframe can I expect before I get signal again?

  • dan_upson Daniel Upson (@dan_upson) reported from Chelmsford, England

  • HarrisonKent1 Harrison (@HarrisonKent1) reported from Mayland, England

    @ThreeUKSupport just had a fraud alert saying my details are on the black market & they have my Three password & now My3 is apparently down for maintenance. What has happened, have you been hacked?

  • dan_upson Daniel Upson (@dan_upson) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @ThreeUKSupport hi, are you aware of any issues in Plymouth, PL2? Both mine and my partners phones are dropping calls for 3 days now. Have restarted, cleaned SIMs etc...

  • TillyMint_9 Tilly (@TillyMint_9) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve had no network for over a week now. You say it’s a mast issue and you’re working on it, however I see other people tweeting you the same thing from the other end of the country to me. How many masts are actually down? When will it be fixed?

  • sharksinthesink rachael ♓️ (@sharksinthesink) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi holly, no issues on the website, only on the app. I can see my bills on the website fine

  • sgoldswo sgoldswo (@sgoldswo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Thanks, in this case the old Virgin Media Wifi SSID is active on the Elizabeth line platforms, but the “Three_Wifi” SSID is absent, even though the equivalent EE SSID appears. What say you @virginmedia ? Is there a problem with three Wi-Fi access on the Elizabeth line?

  • Em__I__Am Emma 🇬🇧 (@Em__I__Am) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I had a notification from the Three+ app about presale for Like Combs but it’s not showing in the app when I open it - can you help? Live chat isn’t working and all the options on the phone line direct me to the live chat 😩

  • rhysxciv Rhys (@rhysxciv) reported

    @StTwiggi @ThreeUK Couldn’t get signal anywhere and when I did it was so slow so instead of compensating me they told me it must’ve been my phone. Switched to EE and been great ever since

  • UhmitsMissB Caitlin (@UhmitsMissB) reported

    Finally switched network from @ThreeUK after an awful 2 years with no signal and it’s one of the best things to happen to me this year!! I have signal in my own house!!

  • bearded_courier the_bearded_courier 🇺🇦 (@bearded_courier) reported

    So @ThreeUK have cancelled my upgrade to the #iPhone14ProMax and not even had the decency to let me know, claim they rang me but I’ve never had a missed call from them, 15 years I’ve been with this network 10 contracts in all including home broadband, goodbye @ThreeUK
