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

    Just came back from North Wales and thanks god I have a sat nav & sos button in my @MercedesBenz as otherwise my journey in the morning would involve searching for an actual road map since @ThreeUK was down, so no service nor data during 4h journey from Cardiff 👎😑🙄 #threedown

    @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.

    @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

    Excuse me for being blunt here @ThreeUKSupport but what is with your trash My3 app? Can't load recent usage, [pdf bill ain't ready yet but that's fine, today is reset day] Website won't give me usage. Why is this a regular basis oops we have an issue thing?

    Does the @Huawei B535 support VoLTE? Your site says no. But with the AI Cube B900 supporting it, it wouldn't make sense for this new model not to. @ThreeUKSupport

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport worse company I’ve ever had to deal with. Trying to cancel is a nightmare. Just cancel my contract useless ***** 😡

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

    @ThreeUK I have just had the worst customer service experience I have ever had. My knowledge of your products and services was much better than your staff. Also, TV noise un background made it hard to understand the Glaswegian accent and adviser 2 spoke fast and did not listen 😡

  • 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....

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

    @tower_cell @ThreeUKSupport Yes they have. One corner of my village didn't have any signal. There's now low inside signal but at least it's something.

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

    @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..

  • Gezitsme
    Geraint Herbert (@Gezitsme) reported from Cathays, Wales

    @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.

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

    @DJAshBash @ThreeUKSupport ..a new chunk of 4G 1500mHz aka Ban.d 32. When they're actually commissioned the Three network has huge potential to deal with all these issues virtually overnight. Sadly they don't communicate the cause and ther solutions very well hence disappointed customers.

    @ThreeUKSupport I have been trying to cancel my mobile broadband contact for the last few days whilst still in cooking off period, however every time I’ve got through I have been told their system is down. How can I cancel within this period if I can’t get through? #threeuk

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

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

  • welsh_stu

    @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.

    Breaking News @ThreeUK @VodafoneUK @SMARTYMobileUK Currently there is a scam going on for upgrading your account to 5G because of signal issues! These 3 companies of HUTCHINSON 3G don’t care about its customers in fact they have sold their database with every ones numbers on

    @ThreeUKSupport oh dear your customer service is useless now on my third call the last two lasted over a hour no further forward than when I started last Friday. It’s a shocking service.

  • NoveNight
    NN (@NoveNight) reported

    @ThreeUK is an absolute joke. They cancelled my phone plan with no warning and won't even let me lodge a formal complaint. Are there any authorities in the UK where I can escalate my complaint?

  • petronious
    Tanzanian Terrier 🇬🇧🇹🇿🇺🇦🇮🇱 (@petronious) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I continually have problems using mobile internet in the area of HD8 9JX. Signal strength is adequate but access to the internet is shocking to non existent. I know others also on @ThreeUK who have the same problem. This has been going on for several years now

    Rizwan Ali (@rizwanalihaidr) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport and I’ve now been told £176 will be taken this month. I have spent the last 2–3 weeks repeatedly contacting customer service, but no one has provided a clear explanation or resolved the issue. My time has been wasted, and the lack of accountability is extremely

    Chris Bunnett (@chrisbunnett) reported

    @ThreeUK - I ******* hate your network. I haven’t called anyone but now you tell me can’t make a call ‘as I used up my balance!’ You are a bunch of crooks and thieves. Fuckwits.

    @ThreeUK @VodafoneUK lies lies lies…. Your service is NOT better since you joined forces, in fact it is ABYSMAL Can not get signal or calls from 3 till 9pm EVERY SINGLE DAY

    @ThreeUK I’ve had no calls or mobile data on 2 business lines since mid-Feb 2026. Multiple contacts, SIM & eSIM changes, still unresolved. Formal complaint sent 12 March – no acknowledgement received. This is now a serious business impact. Please escalate urgently
