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

    I spoke online to @threeuk and also a shop and the deal wasn’t anywhere near as good as @O2 so now moved 2 of the 3 phones on Three to O2. These questions to “help you” obviously don’t make any difference as it’s still the same deal being offered when I moved the last one. 2/2

    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.

  • jibuku
    Nicola Hamblett (@jibuku) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport one of your stores forced a contract through on me without my permission before I’d signed anything and we’re really funny about cancelling it when I said I didn’t want to go through with it. Where can I make a formal complaint please?

    @ThreeUKSupport any known issues in Edinburgh at the moment? As I can’t make calls 😬

    @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.

    @ThreeUKSupport It's not my phone, it's the WiFi. I've rebooted the router multiple times this morning & if I'm lucky I'll connect for 20-30mins, then it's gone again. This god awful home WiFi is the worst thing I've ever experienced and will be why I leave you when my contract is up.

    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.

    @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! 😡

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

    @ThreeUKSupport Huawei 4g router 3 Pro. There are no updates pending and I've restarted the machine (again!), but now I'm being told that there's no Internet connection over WiFi. This started yesterday and is causing me major problems with my work.

    @ThreeUKSupport my 4g is down and I need it for my job, this is a joke £100 a month and for the service to be down

  • john_rafa
    Joao R. Carraro (@john_rafa) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ThreeUKSupport Since I've moved to Edinburgh last December. At home even though the signal strength is between 50% - 75% I never got a decent speed. I've opened many requests for the technical support to check that but nothing changed so far.

    @ThreeUKSupport Hello. I have an ongoing router issue & spoken with someone on the phone, who's running tests & getting back to me next week. Now I'm getting an APN connection error, have zero WiFi in EH11 2NQ & the system thinks I've not paid my bill, which was taken on 2 Nov.

    @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

    @ThreeUKSupport hi I need to talk about my account I’m being charged twice when I’ve already paid my bill. I’m on the phone with customer service but they’re no help

    @ThreeUKSupport Internet seems to be down in the SL99DH area. Thanks.

  • UKBeautyOnline
    UK Beauty Online (@UKBeautyOnline) reported

    @ThreeUK no 5g for nearly 2 wks in our area, despite living 20m from a mast. Whole area affected, but you continue to deny there is a problem. It is now impossible to WFH as the service is so poor, and £4.60 compensation. Lost the will to live with your terrible customer service

  • MollieCoin
    David #RejoinEU #FBPE (@MollieCoin) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport When people call me and I dont answer, my phone goes to answerphone, where they are greeted by a woman call Jan. I am a man called Darren. I have tried to re-record, tried instant chat & called in a Three store, nobody can help. Can you PLEASE!

  • AmaraCajetan
    Shuga Jar (@AmaraCajetan) reported

    When it comes to frustrating you, just leave it for @ThreeUK They have got to be the most useless UK network ever! Unfortunately you’re forced into a freaking contract with them.

  • MarkJohnpotter
    Mark 💙🤍 🇪🇺 🌈 (@MarkJohnpotter) reported

    Many thanks to the hopeless @ThreeUKSupport for waking me up despite clear instructions not to call me before 1pm clearly they didn’t listen to a word I said. No idea of customer service.

  • Placebob2

    @mavishier @ThreeUK Yeah ive been with them a lot of years hoping joining with Vodafone would help but not so far

  • HannahF_24
    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?
