Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Swanage and nearby locations:

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s like I’m doomed not to get help. I’m really sorry but who do I have to talk to to get a qualified engineer on the phone not someone following a script - he’s taking forever and not getting anywhere because my answers don’t fit his script he doesn’t know how to help me

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Tech today going well... @VodafoneUK: KNACKERED, no ideas what’s wrong, @SkyHelpTeam TV WiFi iffy - engineer Thursday to make box feel better, @ThreeUK temperamental as using data due to no broadband. Haven’t been able to work or relax all day with all these issues!

  • ssorhpesoj Joe (@ssorhpesoj) reported from Poole, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Managed to phone the 3 number on the website and spoke to someone but got a different answer to what was given to me last week. I will be going to one of your stores to get a resolution and if that doesn't work I will be going to the ombudsman.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport having really bad issues with regards to data of last few days almost unusable - on an iPhone in good signal not too busy an area, any ideas why it’s suddenly so bad?

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Have run network setting reset - still seeing my signal drop - calls are showing as only using WiFi calling

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUK I know you hate me and never can be bothered to provide me with phone service and I do apologise for actually using a healthy wedge of my unlimited data today - please take up grievance with @VodafoneUK whose broadband has been dead all day even after phoning for help!

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I’m sorry to say the back of a crisp packet is more helpful than what I got - clearly the advisor is not trained to help beyond very basic queries and doesn’t have access to any resources to help him. Now on a lengthy (cold) transfer to customer services to log a complaint

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi this is terrible I keep dropping inbound calls. I have coverage and WiFi calling but people are struggling on non repeat attempts to call - including Vodafone trying to fix my broadband can’t get through!!!!

  • Ela44 Elaine 💙 (@Ela44) reported from Corfe Mullen, England

    @keavaoloan @ThreeUKSupport Same here in BH18 I have managed to make one call today but all the others number not recognised and dropped. WhatsApp calls on WiFi working so problems with 3 signal still my friend only 6 miles away has no problems with calls.

  • Stephen61934614 Stephen Edwards (@Stephen61934614) reported from Christchurch, England

    @ThreeUKSupport three days now of zero mobile WiFi service in BH23 4HU!! Businesses are relying on the service during this critical Covid period.... to ad insult 45 mins waiting for you support only to be cut off!!!! What is going on?!?!

  • Ela44 Elaine 💙 (@Ela44) reported from Corfe Mullen, England

    @ThreeUKSupport emergency calls only available in BH18 area calls can't be made or received can you tell me what is happening in the area please

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUK why is your network so rubbish - months now I’ve been suffering bad signal everywhere. I’ve even had my iPhone replaced to try and resolve things and all you say is “doing works to improve” in the area every time without prior warning and they never improve

  • ssorhpesoj Joe (@ssorhpesoj) reported from Corfe Mullen, England

    Calling @ThreeUK and I'm pretty sure it's not hold I can hear.. I can hear people mumbling and laughing in the background... this is absolutely poor from Three.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Have now demand he either finds me a more senior colleague or a manager as the answer after a five minute hold to “investigate” was “we know there’s a network problem” which is the same tired excuse I always hear from THREE

  • ssorhpesoj Joe (@ssorhpesoj) reported from Poole, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Contacted you to cancel my contract 2 months but contract wasnt cancelled and further payments have been taken.

  • jamescusens18 JimmyUnderwood™ (@jamescusens18) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Hi @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I need someone to call me back tomorrow to help sort out the mess that you’ve created. You’ve taken my phone number and swapped it with my mum (NHS worker), now she is without a phone. Complete mess.

  • Stephen61934614 Stephen Edwards (@Stephen61934614) reported from Christchurch, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Sorry but this is beyond a joke, service in BH234HU has completely crashed again - you really need to give an honest explanation of what is going on, people are trying to do their jobs here!

  • Ela44 Elaine 💙 (@Ela44) reported from Corfe Mullen, England

    @Kiai_Kas @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Hi Karen yesterday down here in Dorset I couldn't make or receive calls when I tried to ring out it said number not recognised and dropped. 3 came back to me on here to say engineers working in several places trying to fix it. Signal today is very low and phone is intermittent

  • NicolaSyms Nicola Syms (@NicolaSyms) reported from Christchurch, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, I’m not a 3 customer but received texts recently threatening to disconnect my phone as bill couldn’t be paid. I know it’s a scam but some customers may not. Do you investigate these please & if so how do I report them? (If not I’ll just block/delete) Thanks!

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Well that went as well as before... no help - click the link “error”, try again “no operators” even though it’s inside your posted opening hours

  • sinemkent Sinem Kent (@sinemkent) reported

    @ThreeUK your three plus has not been working for 3 days. You say you give extra discounts to your customers but half of the time it’s not working. Guess it’s time to move over to Vodafone which does give great offers and apps that actually work

  • sachu____ Sachin (@sachu____) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I won a competition from your Instagram account last year for a £25 Google Play gift card. The gift card arrived and never worked and your Instagram account said they'd look into it but then just ignored every message I sent.

  • JamesGLA90 James (@JamesGLA90) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, I have service at home (and in towns/cities) but as soon as I leave ‘civilisation’ by going into the countryside for example, the internet is basically unusable. I get that you were better value than the competition, but now without roaming others come out better.

  • fabioprofumo Fabio Profumo (@fabioprofumo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s extremely slow, less than 1Mbps, and very high ping both ways. I used to get 50+Mbps up until yesterday morning

  • Laica23 Laica (@Laica23) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Couldn't tell you the postcode of where I was when I asked, but without moving an inch my phone was running up and down the Gs etc, but the whole of PE19 has been off and on for a few days

  • paowong1 Pao Wong (@paowong1) reported

    @ThreeUK it’s a joke your three plus app not working !!!!?

  • Bennett66 will (@Bennett66) reported

    @ThreeUK can you tell me why I have been receiving texts from Jun 2021 that you are working in my area to improve my signal and if anything it much worse

  • stewart_oscar Oscar Stewart (@stewart_oscar) reported

    @ThreeUK just some advice, get better chat centre staff. After 2 mistakes "upgrading" my contract in 4 months, you've lost a customer that's been with you for 8/9 years. I'm out, can't be dealing with having to go through the same thing every couple of months.

  • seaside_sophie Indie Queen (@seaside_sophie) reported

    @ThreeUK trying to switch my mobile number, just keep getting unexpected error, online chat unavailable! Can someone help ASAP please

  • CiaraMarsh01 Ciara Marsh (@CiaraMarsh01) reported

    @ThreeUK poor customer service, had my phone for 3 months every month issues with my DD taking unortharised payments a week before my agreed date leaving me overdrawn and random payments of £40 now being taken! Do not go with Three! No regard for there customers
