    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

    @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.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport No improvement after a restart and I tried 3 different phones so I know it’s not my phone. The phone is on 3G most of the time anyway and it is around the same speed as 4G. The signal is absolutely terrible.

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @ThreeUK I need to cancel because signal is ****.

    jrdn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@jrdnphp) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport This was yesterday mind! I have not tried that, but if I experience it again I’ll switch. I was with a couple of people on 3 who had full 4G signal but no connectivity so am pretty sure it’s not my device, if that helps any!! Thanks

    @ThreeUK I had served l sent a tweet to you earlier asking if there was issues. Ok. There's Android Instant Messenger & Signal. Thanks for letting us know.

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

  • 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.

    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.

  • CatTPeters
    Cat Peters (@CatTPeters) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @fonehouse hi there, I’ve just upgraded my phone, I’m still on @ThreeUK and it says “Sim not supported”. Please can you help?

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • TonyMaloneUK

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

    On hold to @ThreeUK possibly the worst phone company i’ve ever encountered in my whole life

    @ThreeUK My service has been fine. My husbands on the other hand has been non-existent since last night.

  • BritainAnon
    BritainAnon (@BritainAnon) reported

    @ThreeUK and @VodafoneUK are you aware at how bad the 4G and 5G is in Luton, specifically the whole of the town centre? It’s not about “coverage” but the lack of speed and the completely congested network you both have. You’re making millions from this town, please upgrade it!

  • AntonyAttree
    Antony Attree ☘️ (@AntonyAttree) reported

    @ThreeUK can you please explain to me why in the last few weeks your network coverage has become so bad in the BS26 area?? Struggling to send & receive calls & messages,internet is non existent! I have to walk to areas to find signal? What’s goin on

  • ROSS_G3LL3R
    naomi (@ROSS_G3LL3R) reported

    @ThreeUK is there a reason why I pay for unlimited everything and have paid for my go roam passes for you to not let me use them? Really helpful when I’m driving across Italy without anyway of mapping or googling locations. As a customer of 18 years I’m not very happy

  • VirginiaMcClane
    Virginia McClane (@VirginiaMcClane) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport have you got any issues with broadband in Larkfield Kent @ThreeUK

  • omnishredder_
    Omni (@omnishredder_) reported

    @ThreeUK random query, after putting my current SIM in my mifi device I bought, would it be cheaper to have a SIM only for calls and texts and one purely for data or stick with the one SIM? Existing customer on SIM only roughly £30 a month

  • woodland246
    woodland246 (@woodland246) reported

    @CBTwizard @MartinSLewis @ThreeUK If it’s less than 14 days since you took out the contract, call them back and explain that the law says they must allow you to cancel. It’s not disputable, it’s your legal right. Alternatively try Citizens Advice Bureau? Wishing you good luck 🤞

    @ThreeUKSupport why is the service so crap I’ve been having problems for about two weeks now it’s ridiculous Birmingham area it just hit and miss

  • AntonyAttree

    @ThreeUK are you experiencing problems in the BS26 area?? Coverage here has always been bad! Really bad,but the last few days It’s been horrendous!

    @ThreeUKSupport When will the signal issues be sorted? There's areas with no signal, emergency calls only, no internet. Different locations as well. Been like this since early yesterday morning.
