3 (Three) Issues Reports Near Edinburgh, Scotland
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Edinburgh and nearby locations:
-
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!
-
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.
-
Charlotte L. 🏳️🌈 (@lotternine) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@ThreeUKSupport Nah, still not working - exact same problem
-
Jon (@JonInEdinburgh) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@Nate_Brady @ThreeUKSupport Will do. It does seem to new customers who are having the same issue. I only joined on Thursday. I’ve uninstalled the app for now and will try downloading it again in a few days. I don’t have much faith it’ll work though!
-
John M Hunt (@Johnmhunt) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@DMcGillivray2 @ThreeUK @Ofcom I had to threaten to report them to Ofcom Don as they guy was constantly asking me questions. He said he had never refused to give me the PAC code but just wasn’t getting round to it, demanding to know which phone, how much etc.
-
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
-
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
-
Katherine Aly (@itskatherinealy) reported from Edinburgh, ScotlandNot 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
-
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?
-
Ross (@Rawssy) reported from Edinburgh, ScotlandReally starting to piss me off how bad @ThreeUK ‘s signal is... I’m in central Edinburgh I have 1 bar of 4g and it takes 20-30 seconds to load 1 picture...... IN THE CENTRE OF TOWN
-
Stephanie Ashford (@steph_ashford) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@ThreeUKSupport are there network issues in EH11 2NQ? My WiFi signal is so bad, it's not even registering on a speed test and it's greatly affecting me being able to work.
-
Stephanie Ashford (@steph_ashford) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@ThreeUKSupport There's no issue with the payment. I've been with you around 16 years and had zero issues using all you can eat data on my phone, since I downgraded my plan & got your mobile WiFi I've had nothing but problems with my connections.
-
Richard Williamson (@shadlx) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@ThreeUKSupport Hmm. That sounds like a very standard excuse for the network behaviour I see pretty much 24:7 across the country - it suggests your network isn’t up to scratch
-
𝔸𝕕𝕒𝕞 𝕂𝕣𝕦𝕔𝕫𝕖𝕜 (@AdzKru82) reported from Eskbank, ScotlandNever 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
-
Stephanie Ashford (@steph_ashford) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@ThreeUKSupport is there any update on when the work in EH11 2NQ might be finished? Your unlimited mobile data home WiFi has an woefully inadequate signal at the best of times, but today it's dropping out every few mins & not even registering on a speed test. Not ideal when WFH!
-
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)
-
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 !!
-
Steph Munro (@StephMunroxx) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@ThreeUKSupport Not particularly, just seem to have poor service with both
-
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.
-
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.
3 (Three) Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
John 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@Iwantmytrain) reportedWhen @ThreeUK split their bills so you now get a separate bill for airtime and the device, it became the biggest inconvenience for the customer. Convenient for Three, not their customers. TERRIBLE idea.
-
Matt Stannard (@mattstannard) reported@ThreeUK - are there any outages in the Ipswich area? Zero 5G service on my phone, and as seems to be the norm across Suffolk the 4G service is flakier than snow. Does the hot weather prevent 4G/5G signals working as well?
-
nipplebuffet (@mimiheart29) reported@ThreeUK you have the worst customer service, I’m the phone with yall right now and the agent just left the call without any explanation??
-
FINGERSJOHN✌ (@jnafr) reported@ThreeUKSupport @VodafoneUK B43 Birmingham dreadful service.
-
Ell💕 (@MrSteveBerman) reported@ThreeUK Your customer service team is actually so impolite it’s ridiculous. Train them better please
-
Nic Lloyd-Evans (@AtticAtac) reported@ThreeUK why will you not let me upgrade my phone. 5 times I have called and as soon as I say no upsell just the phone they hang up. Once is an accident twice is a coincidence 5 times is enemy action.
-
jimmy (@jimmysunny85) reported@ThreeUK sold me a dodgey phone that now the battery swells and has basically become a bomb! I have told them this since August 2025 so nearly a year and they taking zero responsibility!! This is the customer service they provide as long as you pay them all is well!! Stay clear
-
Champersq 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧 (@Champersq1) reported@Benleo If you think that they’re bad, you haven’t tried @ThreeUK. I sometimes wake at 4am and cannot use the internet, I think I’ve cracked it and then it starts to buffer again 🤬
-
Jon Howick (@JonHowick) reported@ThreeUKSupport is your network down? Only got 1 bar or no signal this morning
-
BritainAnon (@BritainAnon) reported@ThreeUK and @VodafoneUK are you aware at how bad the 4G and 5G is in Luton, specifically the whole of the town centre? It’s not about “coverage” but the lack of speed and the completely congested network you both have. You’re making millions from this town, please upgrade it!
