  • DannyHorne15 Danny Horne (@DannyHorne15) reported from Manchester, England

    I’m waiting on my delivery from @ThreeUK. The guy on the phone said between 8am - 7pm. Great so waist 11 hours of my day waiting for a parcel that needs to be signed for. I didn’t get any tracking details sent and I need to go food shopping. Excellent customer care! #Three

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK I have unlimited internet but it has been super slow or doesn't work at all since quarantine started (my postcode is M8 Manchester) 😫📱

  • DannyHorne15 Danny Horne (@DannyHorne15) reported from Manchester, England

    PLEASE RETWEET THIS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. STAY AWAY FROM @ThreeUK I ordered a SIM only plan 2 weeks ago and the SIM card still hasn’t arrived. I called to cancel my second contract too but that department “cant take my call.” Disgusting customer care and service. STAY AWAY #Three

  • tandleman Tandleman (@tandleman) reported from Middleton, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I have sorted out the issue on the App, but I have been using the desktop site off and on for years. No change of email address and password stored on pc. Could it be that I can't use 07 etc as your system has changed it to 447 etc. But still gives me the error msg quoted.

  • midnight___owl Elon musk and dank memes (@midnight___owl) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUK fix your systems Ive wanted my pac code for 3 days

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

    @ThreeUKSupport i have been unable to get a replacement sim, taking ages! CS seems to be out of network as “system is down” awful experience in the last 48hrs!

  • AliC66 Alison Stafford-Bentley (@AliC66) reported from Stockport, England

    @ThreeUKSupport how do I get to speak to someone. I’m a new customer due to move over to you tomorrow but not received a SIM card. Your contact number says unavailable. Not a great start !

  • NCrezz NateLynnCrezz (@NCrezz) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @MattyLeeT18 @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Whats annoying is that they haven't even got in touch with me saying sorry or they'd like their device back, they'll get it back no problem as I don't want it juat give me a package to put it in. They have been messaged on 3 different platforms and still ignore me.

  • NatalieMeah Natalie Meah (@NatalieMeah) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUK I have unlimited internet but it has been super slow or doesn't work at all since quarantine started 😫

  • ncobbe Neil Cobbe (@ncobbe) reported from Ince-in-Makerfield, England

  • NCrezz NateLynnCrezz (@NCrezz) reported from Atherton, England

    @LauraEnglish @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport 👀👀😱 What the actual ****, at leadt they admitted that you had poor service in your area that way its not your fault you've had to cancel.

  • waitresswoody Kelvin Wood (@waitresswoody) reported from Manchester, England

    @ThreeUK Seriously unimpressed with your Customer Service Advisors, today. Three separate calls, totalling 40 minutes in queues, and each time the advisor didn’t action my request correctly, resulting in being transferred to a dead line #poorcustomerservice

  • NCrezz NateLynnCrezz (@NCrezz) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK I have a mobile broadband contract and i would like to cancel ive spoken to people on the live chat and they weren't very helpful maybe you can help me.

    @ThreeUK A53 Westlands. Network problems. Mast crap.

  • EllaDuV Ella Duvivier (@EllaDuV) reported

    @ThreeUK one of your agents just put the phone down on me after I requested to speak to a manager. Can I arrange to have a manager call me please?

  • LAChocolates Lucy Armstrong Chocolates (@LAChocolates) reported from East Wittering, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Each time I asked customer service should I put my old SIM card in? they said no, put the new one in!

  • lottiewraith Charlotte Wraith (@lottiewraith) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport No I still have not received a bag, they said the realised the fault as to why I wasn't however still have not received another. It was advised that if I didn't receive a bag I would be issued a refund, this was a week ago, I have no refund, no bag, £300 down 2 days before Xmas

  • Jodie789__ Jodie 💙 (@Jodie789__) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport My elderly father is waiting for a phone to be delivered and has been waiting in all day only to be told it is now tomorrow. This is his only means of communication and he has very little signal and no WiFi. Can you give me details if I can send you order number?

  • Ghoul_of_London ⚠️Skeleton O'Rourke⚠️ (@Ghoul_of_London) reported

    @ladypokingham @ThreeUK The tactic is to get you to go through endless calls and router checks (even though they know that's not the issue) so they can hide the fault from public view. By the time you've spent a couple of weeks on the issue, sometimes it's fixed (6 months ongoing in my case)...

  • Ghoul_of_London ⚠️Skeleton O'Rourke⚠️ (@Ghoul_of_London) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport On the phone for another 1.5 hrs, then cut off when finally transferred to complaints team, where I politely requested I don't pay full price while not receiving the service. It's a pity, a year or so ago, Three was quite good for broadband. Now, appalling. @Ofcom

  • spa3010 Stephen Anderson (@spa3010) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport over 4 hours on live chat today and the only things that came out of that wasted time was I would never recommend 3 to anyone, your complaints and upgrades teams don't know anything about each other and I really want to leave! Shocking!!!

  • tomedthornton Tom Thornton (@tomedthornton) reported

    @ThreeUK has quite possibly the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. 9 months on and still locked out of an account…

  • GreenfordPeter peter greenford (@GreenfordPeter) reported

    @ThreeUK @samaritans Reach out to your customer service please,tell them to stop calling me everyday,wouldn’t mind but I cannot tell what their saying,my 5year old speaks better English which is amazing as I’m not English
