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

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve just had the worst #customerservice experience I have ever. My knowledge of your products and services was much better than your staff. Also, TV background noise made it hard to understand the Glasgow accent and adviser 2 spoke fast and did not listen 😡

  • TweetterRoss
    Ross Maisey (@TweetterRoss) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Extremely annoyed with your service. Been a customer for many years and have two lines. Tried to upgrade and was told a price. I asked was there any upfront costs to be told no At the end of the call I was asked for £90. Livid and will be leaving

  • CatTPeters

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

    @jgfoxy @O2 @ThreeUK Good choice! I love being with 3 and find my signal is much better than that on my work phone which is o2.

    @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.

  • Dariogutier
    Darío Gutier (@Dariogutier) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Is the same whit whatever I do. Every area I’m going specially when is crowded around me. I have changed SIM cards, phone and the problem is still here

  • 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. 😡

  • x_Gabrielle_x
    Gabrielle Jenkins (@x_Gabrielle_x) reported from Newport, Wales

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

  • thisisjmx
    James Vincent 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    So 2 weeks ago there was a 4G issue in my village with speeds in kbps range. It's been better but last few days now fine 50-70 Down, around 18 Up. @ThreeUKSupport It's not easy when living a completely mobile network operator life. No home fixed ISP. 1/2

  • 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.

  • 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?

    @SteffRidderwall @666hazard @chrisaarongrima @ChelseaFC @nikefootball @ThreeUK I don’t it just came up on my timeline and it looked awful just my opinion I’m sure some will like it

  • ClareO74
    Clare Owen (@ClareO74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK Not great service! Look after your loyal customers #loyalcustomersmeannothing 😡

  • 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

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

  • 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

    Ronald (@ronaldlangeveld) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK I just changed my plan to prepaid, keep roaming on, doesn't even have credit on but usually as long as its connected to a network its good and I can still receive texts.

  • RyanSael
    Ryan Sael (@RyanSael) reported

    @robj3d3 @ThreeUK I switched to giffgaff before left and just use payg without monthly plan, never had a problem since. maybe try order a new sim via ukpostbox then forward to your current address, that might help.

  • Richpuvo
    Rich (@Richpuvo) reported

    What's going on Three G .... you I have no signal in my area. You are absolutely rubbish @ThreeUK

  • Mainstreamlive
    Airlim (@Mainstreamlive) reported

    @coveragechecker @ThreeUK Nah no favours I could call in but then I would want everyone to get good signal and at least something decent lol ah the masts they were a good thing, at least you get some really good stuff lol

  • NeddyOrNot
    Neddy (@NeddyOrNot) reported

    It should be illegal how phone companies handle cancellations once your minimum term ends. If the contract's over, I should be able to cancel it online in 30 seconds, not spend an hour jumping through hoops just to stop paying them. I'm talking about @ThreeUK here, but let's be honest, they're all at it. Why is this still considered acceptable?

  • SteveMeek82
    Steve (@SteveMeek82) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Sudden issues in WR3, next to zero connectivity with latency at 2.5 - 3.8 seconds. What’s happening?

  • keanie14
    David McKean (@keanie14) reported

    Your solution is to send me a link to a chat which won’t open. Any chance someone can just call me to sort this?! @threeuk

  • Ralph_Hapschatt
    Mike Baldwin  (@Ralph_Hapschatt) reported

    If someone phones you pretending to be from @ThreeUK, asking you to read them a one time pass code, two them to **** off.

  • Robbo2024
    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.

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport how do you guys even get customers. I’d have better signal with a Nigerian provider
