  • sharonrit123 Sharon ritchie (@sharonrit123) reported from Tranent, Scotland

    @ThreeUK , three instant chats with 3 advisors about the lack of service, every time they “transfer” me to customer relations no one ever answers!!!! Terrible way to treat a very loyal and multi contract customer! 😡

  • StephMunroxx Steph Munro (@StephMunroxx) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Not particularly, just seem to have poor service with both

  • JackCuthill Jack 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@JackCuthill) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Huawei AI cube keeps losing signal. It's pain in the ass.

  • paulforsyth7867 Paul Forsyth (@paulforsyth7867) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport @Rpearson081 The 999 calls connected then disconnected after I asked for the emergency service I wanted. Got a bleep tone and a message on the screen saying Network error. I tried 3 times and gave up. Police eventually called me as there were 3 lost calls and thought I was needing help.

  • AdzKru82 𝔸𝕕𝕒𝕞 𝕂𝕣𝕦𝕔𝕫𝕖𝕜 (@AdzKru82) reported from Eskbank, Scotland

    Never been more happy about having a dual SIM phone, o2 I dunno what's going on with your wifi but its shocking in these parts, THREE you've not been much better. But you're working now. @ThreeUK @O2

  • gm8arv David Taylor (@gm8arv) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @daveake @ThreeUKSupport Until recently the app Three provided allowed checking of data allowance if you were in mobile data mode on the iPad. No problem! The the app was updated “to work in Wi-Fi mode as well”. That’s when all the problems started, requiring a password and an incoming text.

  • paulforsyth7867 Paul Forsyth (@paulforsyth7867) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Rpearson081 @RangersBoy8877 @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport @SkyHelpTeam @WhatsApp I want to change providers as the signal is very poor to no signal at all and that is when am in the open. Can't do this until 2021 so Three better improve or provide a reduced bill for a service am not getting.

  • Scottc79 Scott Campbell (@Scottc79) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Have just spent the most hofficially infuriating few minutes of my life trying to string together a conversation with some absolute moron in your joke of a call centre. You guys must work tirelessly to attain such Herculean levels of abject service.

  • paulforsyth7867 Paul Forsyth (@paulforsyth7867) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Rpearson081 @CEOemail @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK @Three_Is_Broken @EE @giffgaff As soon as my contract is up with Three, I'm moving to another service provider. Only get poor service and coverage from Three and has got worse recently. Not wasting money any longer on this appalling company who provide you with nothing.

  • CraigEdward_ Craig Edward (@CraigEdward_) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s been the entire week. Even on 3G it’s very patchy and doesn’t really work despite there apparently being signal. When I load WhatsApp it can take up to 10-15 mins to connect. This is my work postcode. It’s the Scottish Government’s Victoria Quay building.

  • paulforsyth7867 Paul Forsyth (@paulforsyth7867) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Rpearson081 @RangersBoy8877 @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Three are shocking and have a terrible signal coverage. I had to make a 999 call three times only to be cut off each time as no signal. Thankfully someone else called for the ambulance and the heart attack patient survived.

  • steph_ashford Stephanie Ashford (@steph_ashford) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport I've also tried turning the phone off and on and switching to airplane mode and back. Having no issues across town at my work, so know it's not the phone.

  • Fazzat1903 Fazzat Fae Jockistan 🎗️ (@Fazzat1903) reported from Penicuik, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK No service yet again. ! Losing patience Mofos 👊🏿

  • DX_1 doris (@DX_1) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUK @metwhine aye, maybe quit being sarcastic on twitter for a while and actually respond to customers having issues. idiots.

  • gm8arv David Taylor (@gm8arv) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Kirsty, I have neither three phone, nor a three home service. I have an iPad with a 200 MB/month SIM, and I would like to check the usage. With Wi-Fi disabled, mobile data enabled 192.168.0.1 just times out. You are apparently sending a text to my iPad, which cannot receive it

  • RTPeat Richard Peat  (@RTPeat) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @MustardSeedUK @ThreeUK Absolutely, this morning I had no signal whatsoever, restarting the phone got a signal, but no data access. The last one was country wide as well, but didn’t seem to get picked up by journalists.

  • Mattsteedman matt Steedman - (@Mattsteedman) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport . Just 48 hours I was singing your praises to a few of my mates asking why they were staying with a rival network. I told them three was the way forward and then you go & let me down like this. Looks like finally it’s working but let’s not fight again pls

  • frvic93 frvic93 (@frvic93) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Thank you, but it's OK, I don't really need to use it at home. Just wanted to make you aware the network is struggling around these parts

    @ThreeUK That's a lot of work to make a connection Though in fairness, I've never seen Gogglebox or know what happens on it Just amused me the twisting :P

  • cycleoptic cycleoptic💙💚 (@cycleoptic) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport yet another outage on my 5G broadband interernet connectivity N19 4RN however using a VPN, connection was fine. Three internet back now at under 60Mbs yet my VPN ( on same three 5G) nearly 300Mbs. !!! What is wrong with your servers ?

  • CarloPhoto71 CarlMatthewsPhotog (@CarloPhoto71) reported

    @watchvideosoul @ThreeUK I’ve been having massive problems with my broadband connection at home (day 3 of nothing). Tried using my iPhone as a WiFi hotspot, but the 4G signal is hopeless - was taking minutes to load even a Twitter post. Maybe there’s a wider issue?

  • adamseab Seab (Still A Citizen of Europe 🇪🇺) (@adamseab) reported from Neath, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK Hi folks, took another contract out for my daughter (that’s 3 with you now!), but the PAYG->Pay Monthly number switch is taking a while longer than specified. Any known problems? Thanks!

  • cycleoptic cycleoptic💙💚 (@cycleoptic) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport @CarloPhoto71 the reply is: no problem with the 4or5 G signal, which is true! it’s the interest connection carried on it that is often the problem, which you seem to find possible to monitor! ( even your 2nd line indian engineering support can’t ! ) we need a STATUS page for internet )

  • sherlock1968 David Holmes (@sherlock1968) reported

    Don't normally do this but @ThreeUK has let me down. People have been unable to ring or text me on the SIM provided through its Smarty brand for over a week. Passed from pillar to post by its customer service people - nobody takes ownership & no end in sight.

  • vitinhopretouk Victor Lourenço (@vitinhopretouk) reported

    @ThreeUK I'm already tired of this type of service, this is a lack of respect for people

  • TilleyTaryn Taryn Tilley (@TilleyTaryn) reported

    @ThreeUK … every day this week I have been told to be patient and wait another 24-48 hours for a sim to be activated. Your customer service advisors have been no help- apparently they understand what I am going through but no one can tell me or explain why takes so long.

  • SahajeshPatel Sahajesh Patel (@SahajeshPatel) reported

    @ThreeUK Hi, when will you add support for iPhone eSIMs please? I was going to port my wife’s number from EE to yourselves but no eSIM is a deal breaker.

  • ClaudiaSandu Claudia22222 (@ClaudiaSandu) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport 1/2 After 2 weeks trying to recover our numbers, many hours on the phone to customer services and a blatant lie once that new sims were in the post, we got reconnected to our 'lost' number. I get home today to a confirmation of my our 2 year contracts? We didn't consent to this!
