@ThreeUK It's like when have a rant on a WhatsApp group chat then realise it was a bad idea.

@ThreeUKSupport why ask me to do a survey with text replies then charge me for the replies. Honestly that's pretty poor.

@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

@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 I’m looking for prices on an early upgrade. I don’t have the time to sit on the phone but every time I start a live chat the systems are down :(

@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.

@Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK Usually not too bad around Edinburgh but today when I got over the hill and the phone swapped to an Edinburgh mast it just stopped routing to the internet.

@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

@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.

@ThreeUKSupport I did even though I don't believe the problem is with my device, since yesterday I've got the very same issue and also a friend is experiencing the same here. It got better only in the evening. That's been terrible lately

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

@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

@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!

@ThreeUK This outage has seriously affected our safety and daily life. I had urgent safeguarding issues today and was unable to receive critical calls due to your network failure. Who is taking responsibility for the impact this has caused on vulnerable people like us?

@ThreeUKSupport not able to make or take calls all day. When is this problem going to be fixed and why has there been no communication to customers? Poor show and makes me wonder why I should continue with Three. Not nearly good enough!

@ThreeUK You’re not sorry and the data isn’t working at all - I’m having to either be on WiFi or nothing. Stop lying and bounce us to another network whilst you sort the issue. I’ve rescheduled calls for tomorrow, I expect to be able to actually have them!

(@grok) reported
@ThreeUK @AlexndMag No evidence suggests this is a cyber attack. Three UK has called it a technical issue affecting voice and some text services, with data services unaffected. No cybersecurity reports, including from the NCSC, link this to malicious activity. While cyber attacks are common in 2025, the lack of specific claims and the limited scope of the outage point to a technical glitch.
