    @ThreeUK How come you are charging for the Go Roam? It was always apart of the package. Makes me think that your packages are no better than any other network and such poor signals. Will probably leave Three because of this.

  • djleekee Lee Smith 🌻 (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hi @VodafoneUK ever since @ThreeUK put a new 5g mast up less than 100m from my house I have barely had any signal in my house and surrounding area. Please can you investigate postcode cf11 6dr Thank you.

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @ThreeUK I had served l sent a tweet to you earlier asking if there was issues. Ok. There's Android Instant Messenger & Signal. Thanks for letting us know.

  • thisisjmx J∆MES 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Well I don't check it very often but around this time when I want to see my bills & usage it only works properly some times. No I've not talked to any other team. I've cleared cache thought that might help. [Apparently you've got a new system that is due to launch at some point!]

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    Just had the @Huawei E5783B-230 today. I'm setting it up, but I don't see 4G only mode under any network mode settings. Has this been taken away? @ThreeUKSupport @Huawei_Europe

  • SueRegan73 Suzanne Regan (@SueRegan73) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport hi my daughter had her new phone today with a new SIM card after and upgrade she activated the sim. But there was nothing when trying to into my 3 for new number would let us log in or update password. Kept saying technical error. Is there a problem.

  • thisisjmx J∆MES 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @JimObasa1955 @ThreeUK People like this is the reason we need to put stupid instructions on packaging!

  • thisisjmx J∆MES 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    Excuse me for being blunt here @ThreeUKSupport but what is with your trash My3 app? Can't load recent usage, [pdf bill ain't ready yet but that's fine, today is reset day] Website won't give me usage. Why is this a regular basis oops we have an issue thing?

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @PedroClarke1 @ThreeUK While theres different types of mast designs. don't see problem with monopoles especially new designs. people demand better connectivity but reuse the infrastructure in their area. As long as an Operator is sensible on planning Meeting there's no reason to decline a request

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @PeterClaydon @PedroClarke1 @ThreeUK I wouldn't say clutter. It's the technologies needed. There really isn't anything wrong with that. I would like to see more of the cabinets green, especially to help blend more with hedges that might be behind.

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I took a look on the Hi-Link app. Seems like @Huawei removed it. That's really bad of them to do that

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @ThreeUK what a load of rubbish customer service is!!

  • gingio Shane Andrews MBE (@gingio) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Delayed tweets thanks to pants service from @ThreeUK

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I raised a complaint, they asked to close it as it was dealt with, passed me on to another agent to finalise it and bang, back to square one as the issue wasn’t solved. Called again, the agent couldn’t see that the complaint and disconnected the call. I’m a long standing customer

  • paullittle1977 Paul Little (@paullittle1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport please could you confirm when the mast work is likely to be completed in the np20 5 area of Newport, your network checker states repairs have been taking place for a week and I have had very little or no coverage for the last week. Thanks

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    Does the @Huawei B535 support VoLTE? Your site says no. But with the AI Cube B900 supporting it, it wouldn't make sense for this new model not to. @ThreeUKSupport

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUK Customer service is rubbish!! Don’t let them say they’ll close the case and then don’t sort the problem. I always thought they were pretty good, but, after a call of over an hour, I get nowhere! Extended my contract without my permission. 😡

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @tower_cell @ThreeUKSupport Yes they have. One corner of my village didn't have any signal. There's now low inside signal but at least it's something.

  • thisisjmx J∆MES VINCEΠT 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@thisisjmx) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @ThreeUK do you have existing customer offers on the 5G cube?

  • xLaura Laura✨ (@xLaura) reported

    I am once again publicly complaining about the **** signal that @ThreeUK supply their customers with. Only 12 months until my contracts up & I can switch to @VodafoneUK 😌😌

  • northern_grumpy GrumpyNorthernGeezer (@northern_grumpy) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Good morning. Thanks for your reply. Work in the area doesn’t explain why with my phone hotspot, I’m able to get 13.9 mbps down and 9 mbps up With the Huawei 4G pro 3 router, speeds are 3 mbps down and 0 up Both devices are in the same room and I have line of sight to the mast

  • BigTom728 Tom Westbrook (@BigTom728) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I am connected to a local network, there are no issues there, I have reset my apn and network settings. I have now been told you need to raise an investigation that will take 7days

  • BigTom728 Tom Westbrook (@BigTom728) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport All caps have been removed. I have been a customer for 2 years without an issue, now I am 4hrs deep into live chats without any issue being sorted or resolved

  • WarrenT88801465 Warren Taylor (@WarrenT88801465) reported

    Just had some excellent customer service from @O2 although they couldnt offer me what i was really looking for it was a better service provided than my current provider @ThreeUK has given.

  • CraftyNigel Nigel Craft (@CraftyNigel) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I will try when I get home as the signal with @giffgaff still not working after nearly a month , wish I’d have stayed with you now

  • northern_grumpy GrumpyNorthernGeezer (@northern_grumpy) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have completed numerous cold reboots of the router, removed and reinserted the sim & factory reset the router. I have changed the settings for 3G only as per technical support advice but the service is patchy and unusable at times. £20 per month for the privilege.

  • DanMiles_92 Daniel Miles (@DanMiles_92) reported

    @MariagusMaj @ThreeUK I’m having EXACTLY the same problem. Ordered in August. Have been told to wait 10 days FIVE times now. Contacting the ombudsman for next steps as they’re breaking the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Horrendous service.
