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

  • 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?

  • 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

    @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

  • 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

  • MikaelaYurukova Mikaela Yurukova (@MikaelaYurukova) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @ThreeUK Can you at least fix the network connection. I have a Huawei device at home for wi-fi which is horrible, but also the mobile 3G/4g is even worse....

  • 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

    @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

    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!

  • 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.

  • 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!!!!

  • 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

  • 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!

  • DavidAGraham David Graham (@DavidAGraham) reported from Bournemouth, England

    I will never understand about Sales... SMARTY is a MVNO owned by Three Mobile - I was already on @ThreeUK. Three looses a customer, SMARTY gains one. The @SMARTYMobileUK sales guy still gets their bonus this year yet the group business is down £60/year. Thanks @claudelittner

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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?!?!

  • 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 Thanks - that issue has cleared up but I still have a lot problems where calls drop even when I’m not moving - doesn’t happen all the time and never happened on my old provider on and phone (only been with you a few months)

  • 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

  • ScubaRoss Ross (@ScubaRoss) reported from Poole, England

    @mcarhartharris @ThreeUK If you want the model let me know. Best headphones I’ve ever used, never fallen out when running AND they turn on, it’s like magic!

    @paulmarsh2101 @ThreeUK Three are a bunch of fuking nitwits man. Probs paying some poor **** to garner some social street cred points, instead of improving their despicable support

  • Emzymereaction Emma Doyle (@Emzymereaction) reported

    @GetMeAManager @ThreeUK But surely I shouldn’t have to pay for a service I’m not receiving...AND they were incredibly rude...AND it’s still not resolved, or fixed...you should butt out unless you can help me, you absolute fool

  • KindRandomAct ARK (@KindRandomAct) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport @monkey596 Hello, service went down completely for about 20 minutes in the LE67 area. No 3G, 4G or signal at all. (tried restarting phone no luck) Signal is back for now. Thanks for your help.

  • treelles Tre elle custom wigs (@treelles) reported

    @ThreeUK I have two contracts with you and the service is very limited. But most of all it is limited at home. If I get any service at all that is. Considering we have been at home for the last year I’d say I’m paying for something I’m not receiving. How can you help please

  • bha4p Andy⁴p⚪️💙 🚯 (@bha4p) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport is there a problem with the site & app login? said my password wasn't right (it was), I reset it, still saying password is wrong?!?

  • minimooey Mooey (@minimooey) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I need some urgent help here, I would appreciate a reply as soon as possible, all day I have been trying to deal with your customer services with regard to setting up a new phone with the wrong contract details. You have also cut off the old phone.

  • ch3zzah Cheryl McSweeney (@ch3zzah) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport once again on the phone to your customer service team who have no clue what they are doing. Do you need someone to help with customer service? I am available to train them!
