    @ThreeUK network coverage lately is awful. I may need to consider moving after 18 years

    @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. 😡

    @dlever21 @ThreeUK My problem was they added a new condition this time that said if you haven't used it since January. but @ThreeUK ran the offer in May and I used it then. Guaranteed they caught LOADS of people out 😡

    @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

    @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 !

    @JimObasa1955 @ThreeUK People like this is the reason we need to put stupid instructions on packaging!

    Hi @VodafoneUK ever since @ThreeUK put a new 5g mast up less than 100m from my house I have barely had any signal in my house and surrounding area. Please can you investigate postcode cf11 6dr Thank you.

    @ThreeUKSupport @StroopWafel13 Your service at Glastonbury was virtually non existence! No other providers had the issues 3 customers did at Glastonbury!!

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

  • welsh_stu
    🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 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.

    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

  • Bubwal
    Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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

  • 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

    @ThreeUKSupport it is like a nightmare when cards have to be updated and details have to be passed to service providers but I hope this solves any problems

  • Alishaa_Ali
    Alisha (@Alishaa_Ali) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Please help.i returned 2 tablets using Three’s prepaid return packaging around April 2025. After repeatedly being told there was no evidence, BOTH have now been found. Three says they were “received” June 2026 and won’t fully refund me. I need this investigated

  • josephsinyor
    Joseph Sinyor (@josephsinyor) reported

    @ThreeUK My new broadband router from NextDayBroadband arrived today, but there’s a 3 outage from day one. Your status page gives no ETA, just “we’re working on it.” Customers deserve better communication and at least an estimated resolution time. Poor first impression.

  • dazbel74
    Dave Ball (@dazbel74) reported

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I bought a £10 SIM card from @asda that comes with 40GB data and unlimited calls and texts for the first month. SIM was activated but no data or calls. Chatted online with a Three agent and apparently it's not a Three issue, it's an ASDA issue. How?

    @CasinoCapital @ThreeUKSupport Is that a bad thing?

  • leeburridge
    The Real Lee Burridge (@leeburridge) reported

    @YTJustGetATesla @ThreeUK Im gradually moving off Three. EE gives a better signal and my company does a deal where I can choose any network and get a monthly contract SIM (not locked in) for a better price than I get elsewhere.

  • HavocAgain
    Alex Havoc (@HavocAgain) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I'm too fed up to complain. I just want to know why the service is so poor in Worcester and WHEN it will be retsored to something like normal? @tomcollinsworcs Please can someone from @ThreeUKSupport reply ... pretty please???

    @ThreeUK will outsource Customer service operations to India and what do you get for it? Stolen customer data they use for their scam calls

    @ThreeUK feel “3” to turn on your services I can’t even load google kry alone send a what’s app message this is awful it’s been all day

  • jamescookdev
    Cookie (@jamescookdev) reported

    Why is dealing with @ThreeUK such a massive ballache? Cancelled home broadband 2 weeks ago. Supposed to receive instructions from DPD on how to return the router. Nothing ever arrived. I will be charged if they don't receive it back. Tried to speak to them through live chat today. Takes forever to bypass the chatbot and and speak to a real person and when you finally get someone they reply so slowly it takes forever to sort anything out. Session times out while I'm busy trying to get some actual work done (that's how slow they are to reply). Website logs me out. I lose all the progress I've made. Try and log back in and their site is broken. Just ******* shoot me now.
