    @ThreeUKSupport hi. I’ve been with you and few months and i’m really struggling with signal when indoors. Today I had two bars of 5G and couldn’t load anything. Later went to full bar 4G and same issue. Have videos to show if helpful.

    @ThreeUKSupport They said wait a week and try again, and it’s still horrendously slow.

    @ThreeUKSupport how long are you customer service systems going to be down? 3 days now I have been trying to speak to somebody to cancel my contract and 3 days I’ve been told system is down. #three #network #shitcompany

    @XiaomiUK @Android @ThreeUK Hey! What usually happens is, when I start a message with another 'Chat' user it can still be on SMS. I'm settings Chat will dispy as Connecting & sometimes fail. Or when another messages me they see it as txt not Chat. There's been a software update recently, it seems better now

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

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

    @PedroClarke1 @ThreeUK Sadly my Three is still crap where I've in Penarth. And it hasn't changed much in the centre of Cardiff either.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • paullittle1977
    Paul Little (@paullittle1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @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

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

    @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!

  • mindspits
    Rhys (@mindspits) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @mythofechelon @TMobile Could be a @ThreeUK issue as their network was down overnight.

  • JAMIEGRANNELL
    Jamie LFC Grannell (@JAMIEGRANNELL) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport despite weeks of promises of soemone calling me and myself daily contacting you via live chat I’m still no closer to resolving issue. I have numerous contracts with you are you going to keep ignoring me as I’ll take my business elsewhere all five plans

  • 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.

  • LisardoVivas
    Lisardo Vivas (@LisardoVivas) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Well that’s the problem, I didn’t requested my wife had the same message and she didn’t request it either.

  • matthewthowells
    hi i’m matthew (@matthewthowells) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I don't usually have good experiences with customer support calls, but tonight's call was one of the best I've had. Finally, staff that I can clearly hear and understand. Unfortunately I am moving on from Three but your staff tonight were excellent. 👍

  • SimoneJonesx
    Simone Jasmine Jones (@SimoneJonesx) reported from Alway, Wales

    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

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

    Just had the @Huawei E5783B-230 today. I'm setting it up, but I don't see 4G only mode under any network mode settings. Has this been taken away? @ThreeUKSupport @Huawei_Europe

  • TonyMaloneUK

    Four webchats, 3 hours on hold and still not got through to @ThreeUK mobile broadband team... epic fail again with @ThreeUKSupport

  • 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 😐

  • 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

    Robbo$ONDO (@Robbo2024) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK Best bet use a Revolut sim. I had the same issue with 3. £12.50 a month with Revolut keep same number, 20GB while abroad and 50mins calls. Took 2 days to get old number transferred.

  • desmoderby
    delwyn hawkins (@desmoderby) reported

    @ThreeUK Really pi**ed today. Buy European roaming as an extension to our contact with you. Approaching Verona no signal for 90min which meant no navigation around 2 serious accidents. Fortunately we have driven to where we were going in Verona before. Nowhere good enough.

  • JadeThinksALot
    🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍉 Jade 🇵🇸 (@JadeThinksALot) reported

    @Threeuk can barely load up my bus ticket in the city centre never mind doubling the price of the Caffè Nero reward and expecting that to load up in time to purchase. If only companies focused on improving their services before taking away the perks.

  • fundcruncher
    White Apathy (@fundcruncher) reported

    @ThreeUK I can no longer listen to voice mail unless I record a stupid message? Are you on crack? Fk off. Give me access to my voice message or I'm changing provider. Not negotiable. Fkn tyrants.

  • DebHiton
    Deb Hiton (@DebHiton) reported

    @ThreeUK Please explain how, when I’ve dropped off a device with DPD but they can’t find it, I can still be responsible for the device and subsequent non-return fee of £350? I’ve raised a query with your customer service team but communication from them is abysmal!

  • BFCDrinkers
    Matchday Drinkers 🍻 (@BFCDrinkers) reported

    @NameIsRichard @ThreeUK My deal runs out very soon so bye bye. Tolerated bad reception for sake of the deal and four in the house are on Three but no more

  • tedmirra
    Tiago Sá (@tedmirra) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK I thought about building somthing related to this. Would you pay for a service where you could have a Sim card online? To send / receive sms.

  • bearded_courier
    the_bearded_courier 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@bearded_courier) reported

    And for the previous 22 days you will have charged me £9.88. How on earth does this make any sense what so ever. So now instead of keeping me as a customer I will be moving all four of these plans to another network. Seems 20+ years of loyalty means zip in the world of @ThreeUK
