    This may be something that only affects me but it's hugely unfortunate @ThreeUK are discontinuing their Three In Touch app. I don't have that great a signal in my house and being able to make calls and text over WiFi was a massive benefit. Arg.

    @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 Yeah and the problem was still there, my phone was changed because apparently was the phone and the problem is still here! It’s been 2 years contract in hell!! I can’t wait to finish it

    @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

  • thisisjmx
    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!]

    @ThreeUK customer service is horrendous

  • 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.

    Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RIKZ200 @EE @jay_smithy_13 @ThreeUK I couldn't agree more. 3's coverage is the worst of them all. Duped by their lying 'coverage' map. Can't even get a signal in my house. Roll on moving back to #EE

    @ThreeUK How come you are charging for the Go Roam? It was always apart of the package. Makes me think that your packages are no better than any other network and such poor signals. Will probably leave Three because of this.

    @ThreeUKSupport how long is the website going to be down for please? I have been trying all morning to get on there.

  • 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 .

  • 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 !

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

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport now you want to charge me £13.92 for a service I wasn’t even using during the 16-20 May when I had no mobile WiFi installed because you kept sending me packages with missing equipment. Worst experience with a company ever!

    @Jamesefield @ThreeUK the issue is that since then, I ve noticed that jitter was increased. it was already way worse than 02, now they killed it completely.

    @ThreeUK owe my boyfriend a refund from almost two months ago, they cancelled the order and have still yet to provide the bare minimum of service.

  • GayToryJon
    Jonathan 🇺🇦 (@GayToryJon) reported

    How odd, whenever I get one of these calls claiming to be from @ThreeUKSupport and I tell them I’m 3 staff (I’m not) so if they tell me their name and staff code so I can locate them in the company directory they always hang up. Almost as if they weren’t really from 3….

    @ThreeUK What's going on with there being no service in Cambridge today? The chatbot is asking for patience, but I'm running out of it.

    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!
