    @ThreeUKSupport It used to be good. They did some work in the area and it’s been bad ever since. Have contacted customer services already who say now the service is less in the area. Outside is a bit better but not a great deal.

    @ThreeUKSupport It has been going on for 3 weeks. Business team gave me a date for the mast fix but hasn't happened. I need this fixed. At least a date to fix. I will not leave this issue. I can only escalate it

    @ThreeUK very upsetting calls last night from a call centre claiming to be from Three offering upgrade deals. When I said I wasn't interested man kept ringing back in different numbers and swearing down the phone. Presume not your staff but you not sure if outsourced call centre?

  • danvitale
    Dan Vitale (@danvitale) reported from Takeley, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I have an existing complaint logged for this since November. There are no options to help the situation, like I said we are rural and it’s down to lack of capacity for a tower that will in my opinion not be resolved

    @SophieEB @giffgaff @ThreeUK Giffgaff is great and when u go abroad I just buy a local sim and you still use your UK number on wats app. So much cheaper!Obviously only works if your phone is not locked to a particular network tho! X

    @RinaLeia2012 @ThreeUK It’s really poor treatment of loyal customers, particularly as they only said in January they had no plans to do this 😢

    @ThreeUK , i have tried for 10 days to transfer a number to you. Multiple messages on twitter and your company cannot help me. Disappointed doesn’t begin to cover it.

    Fuming with @ThreeUK right now. Been on hold/passed around for 1 hour and 40 mins so far and still counting...Shocking customer service. Clearly, being a loyal customer with 4 contracts doesn't make much of a difference 🤬😠 #three #ThingsWeShouldCancel

    If you employ people to answer phones make sure they do not hang up on people @ThreeUK Upsetting old people is ******* vile and unprofessional.

  • kleague_kilt
    The K-League Kilt (@kleague_kilt) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport ur home broadband service in South Lanarkshire has been woefully unacceptable for almost a month as has your attempts at "customer service". Definitely pulling the plug on my contract as soon as possible.

  • rachel_l_james
    rachel james (@rachel_l_james) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I’m getting a ‘working on the network in your area’ msg for SL2. We’ve not been able to use the internet since Saturday… meaning no tv or wfh. I want to know how long this is expected to go on for? Days? weeks? And why would you not reach out to us to warn us?

  • futralph

    @threeuk @ThreeUKSupport fix your damn haven’t been able to top up for other a week and I’m out of data. What a joke!

  • PHILIPCARRUK
    Philip Carr (@PHILIPCARRUK) reported

    @ThreeUK why have you billed me for 5–6 months of line rental after I cancelled my SIM and moved my number to Vodafone? Now I “owe” £190+ due to your error. Take responsibility and fix this.

  • kattyork
    katie t  🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@kattyork) reported

    Why is @ThreeUK so **** says I can get 4G at work I sometimes have nothing or 1 bar like in York city centre

  • BambieBambini
    Kitty Coco (@BambieBambini) reported

    @ThreeUK Warning for 3 PAYG Users They cut off my service and kept my remaining credit, claiming no chargeable activity for 6 months, despite a recent call I have the logs on my phone to prove. This is the last time they will rob me. I’m switching to another provider.

  • ArunasZidonis
    Arunas Zidonis (@ArunasZidonis) reported

    Is it @Sainsbury's in Ellesmere Port jamming phone signal? Or has @ThreeUK become worse after the partnership with Vodafone?

    Steve Harrison (@stevejh1973) reported

    @ThreeUK even after the merging with Vodafone my actual phone signal remains at one bar at home (E9). And, for some reason, my WiFi calling hardly works too. It is not my phone as I have always had this problem. Basically it is impossible for me to actually make calls at home!

  • durgut_arda1
    ARDA BATIKAN DURGUT (@durgut_arda1) reported

    I use @ThreeUK in London, but the internet is practically non-existent... The signal is zero, the speed is terrible. This experience is truly unacceptable in 2026. 🙃 Am I the only one experiencing this problem? @ThreeUKSupport
