  • richrocks Richard Fielding (@richrocks) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @ThreeUK Im still having issues three days on.

  • Jess09xx Jessica Bingley (@Jess09xx) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    Looking for recommendations, my wife is due an upgrade with @ThreeUK but after bad experiences (very poor customer service) i'm looking for a better provider. Any help appreciated. Looking to spend between £35/45 a month for a decent phone and contract!

  • Biker_Buzz BikerBuzz (@Biker_Buzz) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    Getting sick of @ThreeUK homefi service. Pointless trying to call support because you just get fobbed off. It's been shitty for weeks now.

  • Bomberherald Bobby, the premature elf on a shelf 🎄🎁 (@Bomberherald) reported from Conisbrough, England

    Caught in a weird login and validate email loop trying to upgrade my phone. @ThreeUK must really want me to have an iphone (🤢) as every time I click on Samsung I get thrown back into an eternal cycle of validation hell. It's working that well that Bethesda want to publish it.

  • stevengrocock ⓈⓉⒺ ⒼⒺⒺ (@stevengrocock) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @Tim_Arnold1977 @ThreeUKSupport Cred it to them from here too. All the data, calls and text whilst I was away all went on my normal contract so I was able to keep in contact with home, book tickets and hotels etc without any charge to my normal account. I’ve been with them a while now. Great service.

  • GracePerry_x Grace (@GracePerry_x) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @ThreeUK your service is actually disgustingly bad! I have been trying to contact someone since 9am!

  • jalfrazer Frazer Smith (@jalfrazer) reported from Edwinstowe, England

    So glad I finally swapped my @O2 sim only for @ThreeUK possibly the best decision I’ve made for a while. @O2 sooo expensive for a poor service🙄 So much for ya money with @ThreeUK

  • Biker_Buzz BikerBuzz (@Biker_Buzz) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    If what you're looking for in an ISP is a service that makes data transfer of any kind frustratingly pointless may I recommend @ThreeUK. I can't wait for my contract to end. This message brought to you courtesy of @bt_uk

  • nwagchineye pisc3sszn (@nwagchineye) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @ThreeUK I hope you lot are charging me for this month because I have no service all day whilst I was out. This isn’t a first time occurrence either.

  • CazowenI Carolyn Owen (@CazowenI) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    Just has the worst experience with @ThreeUK took 12 calls over 1 hour just to pay one bill hung up on by 3 different members of staff for telling them they were wrong (they were btw) #badcustomerservice

  • Biker_Buzz BikerBuzz (@Biker_Buzz) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    So my @ThreeUK broadband is up and down like a brides nightie. Spent 4 hours today trying to watch a single program. A far cry from what I was sold.

  • Biker_Buzz BikerBuzz (@Biker_Buzz) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    Hey @ThreeUK my broadband has been out two days, any chance you could wake up someone in support to fix the issue. I'm fed up of rebooting the router.

  • junaidjamil99 Mike Ross (@junaidjamil99) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @ThreeUK Absolute worst company I've come across. Worse than vodaphone in terms of help and customer support. Tell my why my contracts £8 a month for my grandma's phone and they've charged me £90+ for 2 months and when I try to cancel they try to charge me a cancellation fee😡🤬

  • junaidjamil99 Mike Ross (@junaidjamil99) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @ThreeUKSupport No a block hasn't been added. I'm 3 months into the contract and when I signed up I explained that I am only signing up as you're able to block any additional charges as my grandma is over 90 years old. I wouldn't have joined if you couldn't offer this service and if this was..

  • Lara_fantastico ⭐Lara⭐ツ (@Lara_fantastico) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    FFS @ThreeUK wtf are you playing at!!!

  • Lara_fantastico ⭐Lara⭐ツ (@Lara_fantastico) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @ThreeUK funny that your opening hours are 8-8 but have problems after pathetic @DailyMailUK network down yet again!

  • nickwlee Nick L (@nickwlee) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @ThreeUKSupport There wasn't. Ironically the connection dropped and the chat window ended the the chat. I asked what are my options, clearly the service isn't right. I'd rather we come to a sensible conclusion and I'll go wired with someone else.

  • CazowenI Carolyn Owen (@CazowenI) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @ThreeUK been trying to use live chat for about an hour, need to speak to someone about the phone of a vulnerable adult & I keep getting disconnected help!!!

  • TPBranson1 Tim Branson (@TPBranson1) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    Yet again rubbish service from @EE . Let's see what @VodafoneUK @ThreeUKSupport @O2 and any other has to offer for someone who has been with them for 20 plus years

  • famousstrauss Jamie Ramage (@famousstrauss) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @ThreeUKSupport when will you have any service in Mansfield? It is really important I have WiFi available as I am working from home and I can't support my students without it.

  • BenPearce19 Ben Pearce (@BenPearce19) reported

    @ThreeUK anyone there care to explain why the #EnoughIsEnough campaign site is still inaccessable on your network? When will this be resolved?

  • cfccarp Roofer Gray (@cfccarp) reported

    @Fabian_cfc @OliviaBuzaglo @ThreeUK Yep, they will never be accepted back by the fans. Scummy company

  • sadiqafrid1 Sadiq Afridi® (@sadiqafrid1) reported

    Three 4G and 5G both is ****.!!!!!! @ThreeUK

  • Zyxkot Qwertyas (@Zyxkot) reported

    @Pattyshiva @ThreeUK Sorry about that cyber_cracks1 on IG specialize in recovering, of deleted accounts, either games or social media and he also fix all kinds of accounts problems.

  • trancingrs Paris (@trancingrs) reported

    @PositivelyHani @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK Worst network provider for mobile phones so would hate to think what their broadband bundles are like. Didn’t have signal on my phone in my area higher than 1 bar and they said the signal is fine. Then proceeded to try increasing my monthly cost. Cancelled direct debit and left.

  • Bootmaster69 Boot Master 🌑 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 🇺🇸 (but not Trumpism) (@Bootmaster69) reported

    @ominologist @ThreeUK I always used to recommend "3" to anyone who asked or who I thought might like their roaming packages. But not anymore. Customer service has gone and it's been pure profit and To Hell with the customer.

  • vFightMacFight The World Hates Me Pebbles (@vFightMacFight) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Apparently it's a known issue but was wondering if anyone knew at three hence the tag

  • jbayrshire jsb74 (@jbayrshire) reported

    @ThreeUK is your network down ? I no it’s been absolutely garbage but you can’t get on anything for the last 2hours

  • ShannonOsborrne Shannon Osborne (@ShannonOsborrne) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport But if I wait until after the 26th, would I be charged? As I have a bill coming out from you on 24th. Would that be my last bill with you? And would I need to cancel my DD with you once moved over or will that auto cancel?

  • charleyjaiuk Charley Jai (@charleyjaiuk) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Customer Service reps say they'll reimburse me and will stop the fee from being added to my monthly bill. Hasn't happened. I'm going to change networks once my contract is done. I've had enough of @ThreeUK
