Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Edinburgh and nearby locations:

  • AGDun_162 Aldo (@AGDun_162) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport what is going on with your network AGAIN! Numerous times I have reported shoddy network speeds on your 4G Home Broadband . And I don't want to hear lame excuses about "Work Being Carried Out" when that simply isn't the case. EH6 area (Leith)

  • itskatherinealy Katherine Aly (@itskatherinealy) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @6BROWNIN @ThreeUK You should! Everyone kept telling me how bad they are but I haven’t had an issue until the time I actually needed their help with something important.. good luck!

  • KyleSlorance Kyle Slorance (@KyleSlorance) reported from Musselburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport The signal hasn’t been great since Thursday morning and 3G isn’t much better due to the Mifi hub being indoors

  • MTraill Michael Traill (@MTraill) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Has not resolved the issue

  • kevocateur Kevin (@kevocateur) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ICTman1076 @ThreeUK Was glad to be rid of Three, the worst performing network in my area for 3G/4G speeds. Would rate their 5G service, but there isn't one where I live in Edinburgh city centre. The fastest I ever got was 1.5Mb/s. A network built for 2003!

  • RussellSmith07 Russell Smith (@RussellSmith07) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Horrendous lack of customer service from @ThreeUKSupport completely faceless and unwilling if to provide support despite an issue being their error. I would appreciate a message back.

  • AGDun_162 Aldo (@AGDun_162) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUK And coming from an Ex Staff Member for Channel Operations.. I know a duff signal and poor network when I see one. No amount of previous reporting has fixed it and I want out of my contact if it doesn't improve !!

  • mel_robbo Mel Robbo (@mel_robbo) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport not able to text from my phone or receive any. Is there an issue in EH6?

  • lotternine Charlotte L. 🏳️‍🌈 (@lotternine) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Nah, still not working - exact same problem

  • TheMichael84 Michael (@TheMichael84) reported from Gorebridge, Scotland

    @ThreeUK do you have any plans to improve signal around Midlothian & Edinburgh? I get 1 bar max, and despite saying I have a 4G connection nothing loads. If nothing changes I'll be forced to change providers.

  • davidgrierson70 le_deej (@davidgrierson70) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Thanks for the reply. Managed to get some online chat support this morning and it turns out my number has been ported to another network. I don't know why.

  • melvvvvkk Melville King (@melvvvvkk) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport So I’ve to do without service until the 8th of September? Great service .

  • davidgrierson70 le_deej (@davidgrierson70) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport My number no longer seems to be registered on network and I can't access my account online as you're Experiencing Technical Difficulties. What's going on?

  • itskatherinealy Katherine Aly (@itskatherinealy) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Not that you didn’t know, but I gotta say absolutely awful customer service @ThreeUK - advisors hanging up, playing music while chatting to their pals instead of replying to you on the phone, miscommunication between departments.. looking for a new provider now! #badservice

  • RussellSmith07 Russell Smith (@RussellSmith07) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Again pathetic customer service. I need a call back.

  • WolfVlogsLife WOLF (@WolfVlogsLife) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport I'm going to have to end my broadband contract due to you breaking it. Its been months still no LG TV. When I get in contact with customer service its same old its 10working days away. Maybe time to sue not paying for goods I've not received

  • photomadmichael Michael Higgins (@photomadmichael) reported from Queensferry, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s all good Kim, panic over I switched the phone off and on again problem solved lol

  • AGDun_162 Aldo (@AGDun_162) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport your services are down again in EH6 area of Edinburgh.. Im lucky if I can get 1.0 Mbps SORT IT PLEASE

  • photomadmichael Michael Higgins (@photomadmichael) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

  • Johnmhunt John M Hunt (@Johnmhunt) reported from Oxgangs, Scotland

  • Liam_ward97 Liam Ward (@Liam_ward97) reported

    @carefreechilly @ThreeUK Not even that good here in Wimbledon. May be moving to EE soon, they seem to have the best signal.

  • Campsy73 Campsy73 (@Campsy73) reported

    @ThreeUK Hey three - your website is down and I can’t make calls on my phone, nor can my partner. It says ‘your service does not allow access to this number’ What a gives?

  • G_Hughes86 GH (@G_Hughes86) reported

    @dunny6times @O2 I’ve moved to @ThreeUK lately and can barely get **** all when going the match. Was the same at OT

  • Kmlinger Kelly Linger (@Kmlinger) reported

    @ThreeUK I have spent an age on live chat in the last 2 days. My phone number has been spoofed. I am trying to change my number. I have had 50+ calls from people who have received missed calls from my number but it is not me. Someone needs to call me to help sort this out ASAP!

  • Jack_Wharton02 Jack W (@Jack_Wharton02) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport my data isn’t working in Birmingham. Showing 3G but nothing loads, I should have 5G. Tried restarting my phone, taking out sim and resetting network settings but nothing is working. Can only get internet when connected to wifi

  • travelred Steve (@travelred) reported

    @sarahmufc93 @EE That sucks. Only advice would be don't move to @ThreeUK ,the only provider I've paid to leave mid contract when they couldn't provide a half decent signal outside... Advised me to turn off 4G on my phone as their 3G signal was better...

  • Judgie74 LJ74 (@Judgie74) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport the worst company to deal with in my entire life - shocking customer service team , who can I contact who isn’t in a call centre on the other side of the world !!

  • SuperSajuuk Gordon (@SuperSajuuk) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi there, I have tried this but it doesn't work. Even though I'm putting the mobile data SIM into another device [an iPhone] and navigate to the website while connected to the 3 network [no wifi], the website just keeps saying I'm not connected to 3 and to try again. 😐

  • sarahmufc93 Sarah (@sarahmufc93) reported

    @travelred @EE @ThreeUK Weirdly I was going to switch to 3 as Steffan is on there and he gets perfect signal! Didn’t want to chance it with anyone else.

  • CKablooie Phil Davis (@CKablooie) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport But they are no different if you are a loyal customer to being a new customer.
