    @ThreeUKSupport TA8 2SE, I bought MiFi with 30 day contract and the coverage in this area is awful. I will be cancelling and going with another provider.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport please could you confirm when the mast work is likely to be completed in the np20 5 area of Newport, your network checker states repairs have been taking place for a week and I have had very little or no coverage for the last week. Thanks

    @ThreeUK do you have existing customer offers on the 5G cube?

    @PeterClaydon @PedroClarke1 @ThreeUK I wouldn't say clutter. It's the technologies needed. There really isn't anything wrong with that. I would like to see more of the cabinets green, especially to help blend more with hedges that might be behind.

  • Champers_88
    Charmaine (@Champers_88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I’m having issues when people are calling me sometimes it says number invalid. Any suggestions?

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

    @RobBruceK @ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK No awful. Just spent 5 days with no data/calls due ti Insufficient bandwidth. My family and friends who were with O2/BT/Vodaphone had no problems. Worst ever. So regret leaving previous provider last month. Their coverage checker is inaccurate too

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

    @ThreeUKSupport Resolved in part.... but my written complaint received a letter simply asking me to call you.... to be told to reply in writing as they can’t deal with it over the phone....

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

    @ThreeUKSupport This mornings ‘live chat’ seems to have solved the problem. I will wait to see if I no longer get two contract bills . I live in hope !

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

    Exactly the same problem I had with @ThreeUKSupport at #Glastonbury. No service unable to keep in contact with my family both onsite and off. Their coverage checker is false for the vale of avalon area! #ripoff #falseadvertising #threeuk #3

    @Carlz94x @ThreeUK They’re supposed to be **** hot since Vodafone bought them ! “Forming the largest uk network” my ***. I don’t get why my phone says 4/5G and 4 bars but can’t send an iMessage. ?!

    Ryan (@ryantalks1024) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK Idk if it's still relevant since I did it 4 years ago and never looked into anything else But I just use Google Fi

  • duxbury2002
    Golfing through 2025 (@duxbury2002) reported

    Anyone have issues with @ThreeUK data calculation? My new billing cycle started 3 days ago. My app says my usage is 996kb of data. That’s 0.001GB. The graph shows that I have 8GB left of my 12GB allowance, so 4GB used. I called them, they say I have used 2GB. #ripoffbritain

    @KayliePaylie @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK I think the only time we've paid more than like £6 for the cinema was when we were in London, and you expect it down there

  • NawazAteeb
    Ateeb (@NawazAteeb) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport just when I think your network can’t get any worse, you find new ways to lower the bar. The UK’s worse network. Your marketing team sends emails showing how clueless you are

  • OldLondonW14
    Back in Time West London (@OldLondonW14) reported

    Anyone know which mobile provider has better coverage in W14 area of London. I’ve been advised by @ThreeUK it’s best to cancel account as they’re struggling to provide adequate 4g let alone 5g.
