  • jo09xx Giraffe 🦒 (@jo09xx) reported from Bury, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Me either, considering 3 is major phone company yet can't put me through to the correct department or answer a phone successfully...I don't want to explain this long winded issue over chat...I want a phonecall to speak to someone who can sort this out.

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

    @ThreeUK 3 has been my network of choice since you first arrived in the UK but now you are getting more expensive than other networks your customer service is suffering badly and now to cap it all you’re closing Wuntu #TimeForChange

  • MegLlewellyn95 Meg Llewellyn 🦒 (@MegLlewellyn95) reported from Haydock, England

    Never know an online customer service more idiotic than @ThreeUK

  • AdrianAndreev Adrian Andreev (@AdrianAndreev) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Laura, thanks for writing back! Contacted tech support, waiting for the 72 hours to go past, so someone to call back and explain why signal is such peace of ....!

  • JonNutten Jon Nutten (@JonNutten) reported from Salford, England

    Think it’s time to go to @ThreeUK well over a decade with @O2 / @o2businessuk and they not really fussed about loyalty, customer service. The line used ‘it is what it is’ when I spoke to them about my contract options. 😂😂

  • Scarlet0Pimp Liam B (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @ThreeUKSupport That's SK3 but also SK1 has been pretty pretty poor recently. I have a Samsung my friend an iPhone both have same speeds

  • Alishamariiex Alisha Harris (@Alishamariiex) reported from Hindley, England

    @ThreeUKSupport can someone get back to me regards to complaint 28178216

  • els_photographs Emma L Strawbridge 🧜🏻‍♀️ 🏳️‍🌈 (@els_photographs) reported from Manchester, England

    When you been trying to upload photos/videos to Facebook for 5 hours but it’s not working as your signal from @ThreeUK is so shit in Manchester City Centre

  • DanielDelew17 Daniel Delew (@DanielDelew17) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s shocking customer service. I’m only with you because you’re cheaper. I guess you get what you pay for Looking forward to wasting another 30 minutes for some lies 👍🏼

  • WhyWouldWe X-Ray Katt (@WhyWouldWe) reported from Stockport, England

    The 4G and signal bar means literally noting anymore. Cue @ThreeUKSupport apologising & asking me where I am, but this is happening everywhere. It’s not my phone either, I recently upgraded & have the same problem. 4G Icon and 3 bars of signal & I’m getting rubbish connection.

  • AdrianAndreev Adrian Andreev (@AdrianAndreev) reported from Urmston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes, many times! Even have booster now . It's boosting the 3G, not the 4G I want. How a billion £ company like you can't fix their network is beyond me

  • ABeirne11 AB (@ABeirne11) reported from Salford, England

    @CraigRyan1986 @Three_Is_Broken @Apple @ThreeUK I’ve got the same issue, signal and service is atrocious

  • Alishamariiex Alisha Harris (@Alishamariiex) reported from Hindley, England

    @ThreeUKSupport your customer care is appaling!!!

  • jam_face Jam Face (@jam_face) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUK your signal has got atrocious over the last couple of months round Manchester. Seems to be constantly dropping 😒

  • Scarlet0Pimp Liam B (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @ThreeUKSupport My friend and I have noticed it for a couple of weeks I think. Maybe longer we were joking about how bad its gone then did the speed test in comparison to a friend's speed. I have no idea if it's only on 3g my phone says 4g

  • AdrianAndreev Adrian Andreev (@AdrianAndreev) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUKSupport And still have awful speeds. I got unlimited plan so I can use it for streaming , cause of the promises of reeeeally fast speeds. I can't stream even if my life depended on it... Stop with the lying Please! We all are tired Three telling us there is no problems.

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

    @sydkerrigan2018 @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK Very! I ha e jest been released from a 24 month contract only 3 months in at zero charge and they were only too keen to prevent me going to the ombudsman service! £1374 cancelled and £100 compensation

  • AdrianBeeby Adrian H Beeby (@AdrianBeeby) reported from Chorley, England

    @ThreeUK Data is as ‘okay’ if you could ever get a signal but then prices got crazy. What a nightmare giving notice was - the call operators just won’t give in and let you simply cancel. Moved to @giffgaff and been happy ever since. @giffgaff you are awesome.

  • Thisisme_jess Jess (@Thisisme_jess) reported from Bolton, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport even after your advisor assured me my address had been removed from one of your customer’s accounts im STILL receiving BILLS 🤬

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

    @crybabyrainface @ThreeUKSupport Big mistake switching Three have the worst network in the U.K. ! Their own staff now admit it! All they want is to concentrate on 5G at the expense of the current network

  • CloudKittyPrime Ex Inferis🔶 🐱 🐍 🖖🐉 #Rejoin (@CloudKittyPrime) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi. Neither my Mum nor I have a signal at our hose. I'm using Smarty (which is just another name for 3) and my Mum is using 3. Coverage checker says everything is fine in our area (postcode provided upon request). Please advise.

  • ScottPettifer Scott Pettifer (@ScottPettifer) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport As mentioned in an earlier post I cannot get through on your webcast service as it always says no one is available, nice to see you have read my previous posts........unbelievable poor service and customer support. @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK

  • PeterChallis10 Peter Challis (@PeterChallis10) reported

    @BrightonHoveCC Sounds great - will be interested to see what the pricing is like and which ISPs will used the @CityFibre physical network. I've registered my interest, but I'm not sure of the actual benefits to residential customers, and 5G home broadband from @ThreeUK is imminent.

  • Andy_darlz Andrew Darlington (@Andy_darlz) reported

    3 months and still @ThreeUK can't figure why certain @AmazonUK Alexa devices can't connect via their network. yet another poor performance trying to pass the book..

  • blp_COYS HowardCOYS -balesleftpeg (@blp_COYS) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Just to say, I don't live at this address. I work here sometimes and really struggle with the service here

  • randiitog RussFTL (@randiitog) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport To add insult to injury, logging on to three and not using the options are was given through e-mail, there's actually cheaper plans available to me, or would be if you hadn't already ignored the one i chose and have me down as not being able to upgrade til next year.

  • BeckyLakey Becky Lou (@BeckyLakey) reported

    @ThreeUK hi 3! If I have a problem with my phone, how do I get it resolved during lockdown? I'd like to show someone but the shops are closed and I don't really want to send it away. Will be it ok to go to a shop once lockdown over even if the issue is several weeks old then?

  • trueblue6716 TrueBlue (@trueblue6716) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I sent a phone back last year, you said I didn't issued debt collectors amd defaulted my credit file! I paid debt collectors and chased up with you, you found Phone now I can't get money back or default remo ed from credit file as you just keep transferring me!!! Shocking service

  • ScottPettifer Scott Pettifer (@ScottPettifer) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have tried on many occasion s to get through to your online Chat but no one is ever free to chat about my ongoing issues of very poor signal in my area. @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK What is going on... Please contact me as a matter of urgency. Poor company Poor Service, do not use.

  • blp_COYS HowardCOYS -balesleftpeg (@blp_COYS) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Ongoing issue since 2016? That's when I started working here and it's always been terrible.
