  • Ladysherb Amanda (@Ladysherb) reported from Alresford, England

    @ThreeUKSupport a new phone was supposed to be delivered today. DPD say 3 requested it back. Live chat says call, call centre says closed and use live chat. Can someone help please

  • Gavrielo Gav Amante (@Gavrielo) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Hi @ThreeUK my 4g is super slow too. No excuse as I live in town and full signal. I tested on an o2 and much speedier. I will be leaving as soon as my contract ends in October.

  • ItinerantHam John - M0IDA (@ItinerantHam) reported from Colchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport That won't work i was told. My contract will be extended to cover the extra day as i am bound to give exactly 30 days notice. This is what i was told today and is the essence of my complaint.

  • HarveyMnh1972 2e0mnh (@HarveyMnh1972) reported from Tiptree, England

    @ThreeUK That's is wrong because I just turned my phone off and then on again still no signal

  • SuePownall Sue Pownall Artist (@SuePownall) reported from Bures Saint Mary, England

    . @ThreeUK not only is coverage bad but you've now discontinued the wifi app so I have no service at home. #timetochange #mobile

  • mikemackay Mike Mackay (@mikemackay) reported from Witham, England

    @ThreeUK Any idea or ETA on eSim support at all? 🙏🏻

  • HarveyMnh1972 2e0mnh (@HarveyMnh1972) reported from Tiptree, England

    @ThreeUKSupport still no signal what is going on

  • ade_dehinbo Ade Dehinbo (@ade_dehinbo) reported from Colchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Please have the decency to read the feed properly before asking daft questions ... as I have already stated I never cancelled anything, I merely informed you that as of the 18/9 (the date my contract finished) I no longer wished to be use your services! Nothing more nothing less

  • SherbetKirsty Kirsty : Polkabops (@SherbetKirsty) reported from Great Bromley, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I’d be grateful if you could Charley. We have been sent a very large bill for a line that we were told had been cancelled. We’ve had a catalogue of problems & in October the whole issue was escalated to a manager who cancelled everything as a good will gesture, I don’t get it!

  • TallGarv Kieran Garvey (@TallGarv) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Three are fixing an issue in my area I just noticed on your Network Status checker so that might be why

  • SightedBike273 I like the webuyanycar 2010 ad (@SightedBike273) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport it's been 5 days since you've started "work" on the mast. I've been getting barely any signal. Any idea when it will be back? I can dm you my post code if needed

  • vinorodders vino (@vinorodders) reported

    Yo @ThreeUKSupport have you lost your mind? The worst service in the world recently and you’re raising the monthly price?

  • DgtmooreNft Dgtmoore.Nft (@DgtmooreNft) reported

    @ThreeUK Question 1: Why does Three rate 1.5 stars on Trustpilot with 60% giving poor or bad reviews? Recent reviews are almost umanimously 'terrible'.

  • p1nksx Poonam (@p1nksx) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport is three down again? Can't call out and no one can call me either?

  • hondobaby Adele D (@hondobaby) reported

    @ThreeUK is there a way to speak to customer services without entering a Three phone number?

  • Kate_Denyer Kate Denyer (@Kate_Denyer) reported

    Sick of getting an @threeuk message just recently, saying I have nearly used my monthly data allowance. You have given me the warning for the last three days. I have only used 0.22GB out of 1GB. I never got close to running out. Please change your algorithm, or I must mute you.

  • dustybottom2 Ross Miller (@dustybottom2) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport having issues with making calls, keeps failing.

  • AQ74410 AMQTK (@AQ74410) reported

  • beckynorrisx Becky (@beckynorrisx) reported
