    @ingl We had many problems with @ThreeUK when we had contracts! They promised discounts on both mine & Mrs' accounts when we signed only to find they charged us full price for both. When I complained and showed them written proof of their promise they wouldn't relent! #NeverAgain

  • JurgensTeeth Michelle 💙 (@JurgensTeeth) reported from Walkden, England

    @johnthecyclist @thedavidpage @ThreeUK Has this been sorted for you? I've had the exact same issue since 1st January, despite being promised 9 days ago that it would be resolved within 7 at the latest. Infuriating.

  • KerryM811 K e r r i (@KerryM811) reported from Horwich, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I contacted you last month to cancel a contract-I was advised, to avoid paying a cancellation fee,I needed a pac code to give to new provider(even tho im not taking the number)another monthly payment has now been taken and still no code received. How do I cancel?

  • DianeNivern Diane Nivern Clinic (@DianeNivern) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Day four and still no phone service! Agents say I will be connected in two hours time EVERY TIME I message them! I need my phone for my business this just isn’t good enough! @ThreeUK

  • SalfordRedKev Kevin Perry (@SalfordRedKev) reported from Salford, England

    @ThreeUK cant wait till my 3 mobile contract end, worst ever signal I have ever had, cant use my phone at home without losing signal

  • abstractgroove Simon Webbon (@abstractgroove) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport As I’ve already told you, I’ve done that and it doesn’t work. I am not using for the first time. I’ve been randomly locked out, unable to change password and unable to re register. Loads of customers having the same problem.

  • desouzadennis1 Dennis De Souza (@desouzadennis1) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport so I visited the store in Arndale MCR as I’m having issues with the network.. they are not able to assist me. I called up CC 6 times they are neither able to help me and directing me to the store. This is ridiculous service provided by staff Allister in MCR

  • Murphy_m13 joe murphy (@Murphy_m13) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport your network is going down the pan had **** signal and no Internet for 4 days now I wouldn't mind i just recommended you to a friend and there giving it me in the neck now sort your **** out pronto

  • Jayenkai Jayenkai [JNK] (@Jayenkai) reported from Little Lever, England

    @ThreeUKSupport You'll never know how grateful I was to have that bit of contact. With Covid lockdown in full force, and no hospital visitors allowed, it was phone or nothing. I'm so glad my phone worked as expected. *distant ascii hugs*

  • leon82uk L (@leon82uk) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport My SMS not working in Manchester. Please fix this! #ThreeUK

  • ShneurOdze Shneur Odze (@ShneurOdze) reported from Salford, England

    @ThreeUK 8 years a customer, 3 contracts.... Two weeks and 4 hours (cumulatively) on the phone and still not through to the right department... #TimeToSwitch

  • DonaldJudge Donald Judge (@DonaldJudge) reported from Manchester, England

    I'd use @ThreeUK mobile, except here in a populous part of one of UK's most populous cities, the signal is absurdly feeble.

  • gazza7713 gaz72 (@gazza7713) reported from Manchester, England

    @Boris72947177 @ThreeUK Never trust anyone from a number who randomly messages you never trust or give your bank details

  • SalfordRedKev Kevin Perry (@SalfordRedKev) reported from Salford, England

  • LuSchmoo Lu (@LuSchmoo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have to turn it off in order to completely access the box. Is there any update on this? I think I direct messaged you a screen recording of the issue awhile ago, that’s when you said you pass this on. Thanks.

  • JPCantais Juan Pablo Cantais (@JPCantais) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I had no signal whatsoever today until 1.30 pm, same as yesterday! What is going on? This is not acceptable!

  • breezy_yehmait Omoyemi Akinbola (@breezy_yehmait) reported

    @ThreeUK you guys must be a joke wanting to rip me of my hard earned money. My phone contract ended and I spoke with your customer rep who gave me a new sim only contract. I did what was required on my part by ringing you before the end of my previous contract. @Ofcom

  • McDoughnut2 McDoughnut (@McDoughnut2) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport phone keeps going to emergency calls only and mobile data is very slow (5g area near Edinburgh). Know it's not the phone as dual sum (O2) is working fine. Maybe a SIM problem? How can I get a reacement SIM please?

  • TalkingBollockz TalkingBollocks (@TalkingBollockz) reported

    @SpykerMP6 @tescomobile @ThreeUK PS. Just how small do you think Tesco are mate?! One of the biggest companies in the world who use the O2 signal, your mam actually uses an O2 signal but she gets it 2p a min cheaper, fair dos 👍

  • The_Baron_X150 Peter Braybrooke (@The_Baron_X150) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Thank you Jen for your kind advice. I have been in contact with O2 Customer Service by telephone, and following their investigations, it seems that my e-sim was not properly registered in the store in the first place! Lack of diligence by their store team….

  • IqbalSBedi Iqbal Bedi (@IqbalSBedi) reported

    @ThreeUK Very Very frustrated without ability to make calls and access data while traveling. Cant even call 333 to access help. No online chat options. You have left a family disconnected in a foreign country - very dangerous. Can you arrange to have somebody call me asap.

  • LeoMills34 Leo Pawel D (@LeoMills34) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport this is absolutelly crap , what I get in Melksham this year. Just wait to finish contract. Already had to use another sim another network another monies to get business working. Big f...crap three uk u are.

  • ChaffaSte Ste (@ChaffaSte) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Yeah. Not good enough. Smarty (owned by three) would give me eu roaming on a rolling contract today. I didn’t expect much by raising my grievance and it looks like I have got nothing. Instead my whole family shall be moving away from three as soon as we can and shall never return

  • Scottyboy0902 Doffing my cap, tugging my forelock etc. (@Scottyboy0902) reported

    @manc_wanderer @ThreeUK No problems I'm aware of.
