    @ThreeUK fix up

    This is the worst rip-off ever. £19.09 for calling @parcelforce on their 09 number at over £3 a minute. + The expensive access charge from @ThreeUK didn't help. There was no 08 or 03 number as an option. @Ofcom needs to address this issue & Parcelforce needs to kill the 09 num:

    Imagine being a @ThreeUK customer with 2 contracts for years on end and being told to find another service provider because they can’t fix the masts in my area and then refuse to refund what I’ve paid off this mobile or even pay my upfront cost for my next phone 😡 #scabs

    @DJAshBash @ThreeUKSupport I'm a Three user and have had experience of both good and bad network in and around the Cardiff area. What Three are stating is true but it's taking longer than they planned originally. Three have the largest 5G bandwidth allocation of all the UK networks plus they also have..

    @samboc86 @hockey_laura @Apple @ThreeUK I hate change and I'm sure they bank on being being apprehensive about it. I'm never going back to them

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

  • christianfclark
    Christian Clark (@christianfclark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes I usually switch between when my 4G struggles. My calls have been dropping and not working properly too though in a variety of locations.

    @PedroClarke1 @ThreeUK While theres different types of mast designs. don't see problem with monopoles especially new designs. people demand better connectivity but reuse the infrastructure in their area. As long as an Operator is sensible on planning Meeting there's no reason to decline a request

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

  • peterkin1010
    Peter MacCabe (@peterkin1010) reported from Barry, Wales

    @DanielIqbal1999 @ThreeUK That should not happen. If the Three signal fails a 999 call should automatically be routed through any alternative network .

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

    @ThreeUKSupport Still with three as I had more than one account... wanted to upgrade my other one too but hit same issues as simply can’t talk to any one in mobile broadband customer service

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

    @JohnDubyaUK @ThreeUK Yeah they’re all in such a rush to get 5G out, they just seem to have given up on trying to get 4G sorted out. At least show me I’ve got a crap signal, don’t pretend it’s all full speed and awesome.

    J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I took a look on the Hi-Link app. Seems like @Huawei removed it. That's really bad of them to do that

  • AdamLee2011
    Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

    @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.

  • elisemarylin
    éli (@elisemarylin) reported from Barry, Wales

    @ThreeUK i literally need my phone to study yet i can't because your phone lines are down, absolutely ridiculous. i will 100% be switching after this, thank God my contract is up.

    @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.

  • 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.

  • cymboi
    MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUK Customer service is rubbish!! Don’t let them say they’ll close the case and then don’t sort the problem. I always thought they were pretty good, but, after a call of over an hour, I get nowhere! Extended my contract without my permission. 😡

  • 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.

    J∆MES 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Well I don't check it very often but around this time when I want to see my bills & usage it only works properly some times. No I've not talked to any other team. I've cleared cache thought that might help. [Apparently you've got a new system that is due to launch at some point!]

    After being a loyal customer for nearly 8 years time to cancel my @ThreeUK contact. Pay for TRULY unlimited mobile data then pay EXTRA to #GoRoam as you need data the most on holiday but you only get 12gb!! Absolute joke, it lasted 1 day!!

  • MicroManager45
    micro manager. (@MicroManager45) reported

    Can you confirm network issues, I have no phone, no broadband day 2 I'll cancel both if I hear nothing back @ThreeUKSupport

    @ThreeUK you have the WORST customer support personnels EVER!

  • andrejpwalker
    André Walker (@andrejpwalker) reported

    I’m so angry about this @paramountplus thing with @ThreeUK. I was basically forced into it by the salesperson. It’s impossible to access and impossible to cancel. £10 a month for nothing.

  • GayToryJon
    Jonathan 🇺🇦 (@GayToryJon) reported

    I think next time I’m arranging an upgrade of my mobile phone contract before I commit to a new one with @ThreeUK I will check which courier company they’re using for the delivery. If it’s @dpduk_ I will probably look elsewhere after the issues the last 2 times.

  • HarryWessex
    Harry (@HarryWessex) reported

    @ThreeUK Hi, can you let me know the progress of fixing the data around Basingstoke? 4G and 5G seem available, the the data is slow on non existent. It’s been like this for at least 5 months.

  • stephenlycitt

    @ThreeUK . Your customer service is extremely poor and processes very difficult to navigate!

    How do I speak to a human at 3 to pay my bill,the customer service and app is absolutely useless @ThreeUKSupport

  • axtumnbreeze
    chey (@axtumnbreeze) reported

    I was under the impression that with the Vodafone3 merge, I'd get better signal, so sorted a new sim and phone through 3 as I never had an issue. Since the masts were being merged, its been awful. Its ridiculous @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK never had this many signal issues beforehand🙈
