  • alunT
    Alun Thomas (@alunT) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve just had the worst #customerservice experience I have ever. My knowledge of your products and services was much better than your staff. Also, TV background noise made it hard to understand the Glasgow accent and adviser 2 spoke fast and did not listen 😡

  • SueLidds
    Susanne Liddeatt (@SueLidds) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @ThreeUKSupport They have absolutely messed the whole thing up! I have no 4g, no phonecall facility and when I check the plan on the app I seem to have reverted to the old one. Each ‘chat’ tells me it will be ‘perfect and not to worry’ total nightmare! I’m paying for an invisible service

  • TrystanOwens
    drunkmuppet (@TrystanOwens) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport can I make a complaint as recently you always seem to have problems in my area which is impeding my services.

  • Bubwal
    Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RIKZ200 @EE @jay_smithy_13 @ThreeUK I couldn't agree more. 3's coverage is the worst of them all. Duped by their lying 'coverage' map. Can't even get a signal in my house. Roll on moving back to #EE

  • Bubwal
    Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @jaybee_ms Moved to them last month. Advise against it. Data service has been awful. Wish I'd never moved provider. Tried all the main providers and 3 is by far the worst #threeuk #crap

  • RosskoKeniston

    @ThreeUKSupport I'm nearing the end of a two year contract! I don't live in a great signal area unfortunately, calls tend not to reach my phone at home unless I have the WiFi on. I'm definitely not complaining, there are huge benefits to Three, InTouch was literally a lifesaver a while back!

  • welsh_stu
    🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Barry, Wales

    @ThreeUK i keep losing signal on Barry Island, postcode CF62 5TQ. It’s stopping me tweeting 😭

  • TonyMaloneUK
    Tony Malone (@TonyMaloneUK) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @Scoutsscarter @ThreeUK I’ve had no end of problems with @ThreeUK as a customer over the summer... both for broadband and mobile. Still no apology or offer to discuss the problem.

  • RosskoKeniston
    Rossko 👉👉 (@RosskoKeniston) reported from Porth, Wales

    This may be something that only affects me but it's hugely unfortunate @ThreeUK are discontinuing their Three In Touch app. I don't have that great a signal in my house and being able to make calls and text over WiFi was a massive benefit. Arg.

  • gingio
    Shane (@gingio) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @NathanWyburnArt @Apple I’m having a similar issue and @ThreeUK won’t do anything about it. They told me to download some app which won’t help anyway as it’s unknown caller. I think next step is I’ll be forced to change my number 😐

  • CPMumma79
    Js Mum (@CPMumma79) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK be aware i just got charged £15 for a 21 minute conversation with another mobile user! That is appalling. Please explain why your charges have gone up 250% I will be changing network ASAP.

  • TweetterRoss
    Ross Maisey (@TweetterRoss) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Extremely annoyed with your service. Been a customer for many years and have two lines. Tried to upgrade and was told a price. I asked was there any upfront costs to be told no At the end of the call I was asked for £90. Livid and will be leaving

    @ThreeUKSupport 😂😂 am already with you.. just waiting to upgrade in September hopefully the iPhone 8 will go down a bit

  • thisisjmx
    James Vincent 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    So 2 weeks ago there was a 4G issue in my village with speeds in kbps range. It's been better but last few days now fine 50-70 Down, around 18 Up. @ThreeUKSupport It's not easy when living a completely mobile network operator life. No home fixed ISP. 1/2

  • DjGiggsy

    @djphilg101 @ThreeUK You should have 5G down with you now, 4G is good up here tbf

  • abbie_hunt
    abbie (@abbie_hunt) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK I had to change my data to ‘3G’ as advised from your in store staff, because the network is so slow atm.

  • welsh_stu
    🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Been through this, you won’t check as it’s a business account and the business team never follow up. 2 years ago Caerphilly had around 40mb down now it’s about 4mb down and no one there seems bothered.

  • mattrymon
    Matt Rymon (@mattrymon) reported from Marshfield, Wales

    SO Disappointed with the level of service from @ThreeUK Recommended a family member to them and never received the referral money even though I have chased 5 times! 6 months on! Shocking service.

  • TicketTattle
    Andrew Thomas (@TicketTattle) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @omnitix @ThreeUK first 3G only network innit

  • Bubwal
    Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport @StroopWafel13 Your service at Glastonbury was virtually non existence! No other providers had the issues 3 customers did at Glastonbury!!

    @ThreeUKSupport trying find a way cancel my sim only since contract is up but can’t find a way to do so

  • boydie123
    Natalie ❤️ (@boydie123) reported

    @ThreeUK I’m having issue with logging in to the App the MFA isn’t working and it’s actually not sending me the code. Your website isn’t helping neither is the chat

  • TheAsylumDr
    The Asylum Doctor (@TheAsylumDr) reported

    @ThreeUK I was verbally abused today at the Angel store by the manager "Wandy" and her henchman, told to **** off and get out the store after i placed an online order and went in to collect after receiving confirmation, only to be told to get ******** out!

  • beevers93
    Luke Beevers (@beevers93) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I cannot go into enough detail on the issues I've been having with you. But apparently according to your customer service I ordered 1 SIM on a 2 for 1 SIM offer, which makes little sense. Despite actually using your "connect together" program.

  • lunaangel10
    LunaAngelReiki (@lunaangel10) reported

    @ThreeUK can I cancel paramount plus of all my four accounts never wanted it or used it ?

  • djt81
    Dave (@djt81) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport it's 2026 and the service is absolutely diabolical!! Fifteen minutes worth of scrambled phone calls just to tell someone a phone number. Sort it out

  • Legmo_2
    Legmo2 (@Legmo_2) reported

    @ThreeUK - Hello! Ever since Vodafone and Three have merged my signal at home went from 250-300mbps download to 3-4mbps. It only goes back up when I turn my phone to airplane mode on for a few minutes and then back off. Any help would be much appreciated!

  • bazisbackagain
    The Honeydripper (@bazisbackagain) reported

    @ThreeUK the worst broadband and customer service ive ever experienced, cancelled my contract without me asking, then took £140 out of my account when I was told it wouldn’t go out, 5 times I’ve been in contact and they say it will be resolved in a matter of days, still waiting…

  • chrisbignell
    Chris Bignell (@chrisbignell) reported

    Three (@ThreeUK) absolutely the worst customer service I've experienced. Just cut me off on business chat, previously useless in store and online. Constantly promised calls that do not materialize. Absolute joke...

  • nazarbekto
    Nazarbek (@nazarbekto) reported

    @ThreeUK Hi @threeuk . Why I can’t play games and watch twitch on your internet? Why should I pay for that service? And why I can’t leave you? Worst internet in uk ((( you are very bad
