  • GarethMBE Gareth Humphreys MBE (@GarethMBE) reported from Wigan, England

    @ThreeUK I have two long term contracts. Tried three times to open a third one, different staff, different questions still no third contract. So poor

  • tms96_ Tom (@tms96_) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I want to stay with you, but I don’t know why you can’t offer me a deal that you’re promoting through USwitch 😞 You say when I call that I’m a valued existing customer, but it doesn’t make me feel like one

  • Akinrinmade_14 Akinrinmade Adegbite (@Akinrinmade_14) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUK technical support has to be the most useless have experienced in a while!

  • cazatmacs Carol Johnson 🐝 (@cazatmacs) reported from Middleton, England

    @Cheryllee64 @O2 @tescomobile No people are having problems here with them too, I’m going to try @ThreeUK

  • Jack_T11 Jack (@Jack_T11) reported from Manchester, England

    Hi @ThreeUKSupport, I have been trying to get in contact for the past 3 days. Live chat is always unavailable, even though it says it’s 24/7. I have tried to call this evening and you’re closed 😖 HELP!

  • MsRoxanneLouise Roxanne Louise (@MsRoxanneLouise) reported from Urmston, England

    Been trying to pay my @ThreeUK phone bill since 10am to get my services back up n running and they’ve had tech problems all day! 🙄😑😤

  • DjStylusUk INSTAGRAM - DJStylusUK (@DjStylusUk) reported from Manchester, England

    3 network could be the worst network in the actual whole universe I swear.. you hit a main road and boom, no signal! Anywhere with people, no signal. Disastrous 😫😫 @ThreeUK

  • TheJamesBailey Jim Bailey (@TheJamesBailey) reported from Chorley, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I’m not sure to be honest. It’s not like it’s the worst thing, butnit is an inconvenience, and it’s annoying that I don’t know why 😂 the mystery haunts me!

  • Bikeboyslim Bikeboyslim (@Bikeboyslim) reported from Salford, England

    @ThreeUK @SamsungUK @SuperSaf @GadgetsBoy Yep and here it is. I’m sick of crap service from Three UK so I’ve left.

  • natalie_19851 Natalie Johns (@natalie_19851) reported from Salford, England

    @DjStylusUk @ThreeUK Them voda a EE shit 😂

  • Quinny898 Kieron Quinn (@Quinny898) reported from Salford, England

    @nunosilvaramos @MishaalRahman @VodafoneUK It's clearly all a marketing thing, their cheapest 5G included unlimited data SIM only deal is £23/mo (not a bad price actually, as I pay £20/mo with @ThreeUK for 4G), but that's capped at 2Mbps. But then they can claim they have the cheapest unlimited 5G plan at £23 of course!

  • Bigglesdaf Andrew (@Bigglesdaf) reported from Bury, England

    @ThreeUKSupport No it doesnt! ANY use of @Huawei means that I would not be able trust the network! The simple fact is under Chinese law the company must provide information to the Chinese security services no matter what assurances they make to other governments or companies! That’s unacceptable

  • ChrisMissesNina Chris Williams (@ChrisMissesNina) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport #Manchester network has been awful for the two years I’ve worked here. Been told to turn off 4G, have had very spotty signal, which has been particularly the last two weeks.

  • Bikeboyslim Bikeboyslim (@Bikeboyslim) reported from Salford, England

    @JamesFrith re @ThreeUK ad using Henry VIII ASA advised me that due to ad and nature of complaint they contacted @ThreeUK immediately who took the ad down.

  • Akinrinmade_14 Akinrinmade Adegbite (@Akinrinmade_14) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport last words i heard from your network was 8hrs ago! Disgrace and shambles of a network

  • huzaifaanwr Huzaifa Anwar (@huzaifaanwr) reported from Bolton, England

    @ThreeUKSupport whenever somebody tries calling me it says that I am “on another line” when I am not , pls help me resolve this

  • tms96_ Tom (@tms96_) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I was offered a deal, yes, however it was more expensive than the deal you offer to new customers. I did take it out of convenience, but it may be worth considering customer experience in future when promoting deals through a third party.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • milh0use Steven Hirschorn (@milh0use) reported

    @Android @ThreeUK suggest I switch off 5g functionality on my Google Pixel 6 phone because their 5G network doesn't work locally. I can't find a way of doing this in the UI?

  • SJLingwood 🌍 Stephen Lingwood (@SJLingwood) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have a card registered but I still seem to need to write it in manually online so it takes longer. I can do it, but should I give up using the phone line? Has 3 effectively shut it down? Is 3 intentionally discouraging the use of it?

  • SilverVixxn Amber (@SilverVixxn) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Thanks! I’m taking out another three contract, but not with three directly. I’m assuming I cancel as if I’m leaving?

  • Thehitmonliam Hitmonliam 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Thehitmonliam) reported

    @ryanlgray @ThreeUKSupport @O2 Three are the absolute worst. I live 20 minutes outside Edinburgh city centre and struggled to get any data reception for almost a year.

  • theweegram Gram. (@theweegram) reported

    @TRNSMTfest @ThreeUK Piss poor.

  • ryanlgray Ryan (@ryanlgray) reported

    @Thehitmonliam @ThreeUKSupport @O2 I never had any issues with them unlit the past 9 months. 4G not working, calls dropping out etc. Not to mention dropping the roam like at home.

  • SJLingwood 🌍 Stephen Lingwood (@SJLingwood) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport But the problem only started when that message (with the Scottish accent) about "sim only deals" was inserted into the top up process, making it impossible to top up unless I talked to someone about your deals! So while that's the case I'm afraid I'll remain suspicious.

  • EnglishRhino Ryan Cuthbertson (@EnglishRhino) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport , for the first time in a decade your upgrade deals are awful, I’d be £15/£20 a month better off going to sky mobile. Don’t spout coverage, yours is no better where I live

  • Ianh1108 Ian Hefford (@Ianh1108) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Can you please tell me why you keep reducing your signal level between noon and 5pm in Cowes IOW every day this week. I have both a 3 mobile phone and home broadband account. Both are unusable.

  • RhysCameronWat1 Rhys Cameron Watkins (@RhysCameronWat1) reported

    12 days and still have signal issues can we go for 15? @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK
