  • TonyMaloneUK Tony Malone (@TonyMaloneUK) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Resolved in part.... but my written complaint received a letter simply asking me to call you.... to be told to reply in writing as they can’t deal with it over the phone....

  • AdamLee2011 Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I have been trying to cancel my mobile broadband contact for the last few days whilst still in cooking off period, however every time I’ve got through I have been told their system is down. How can I cancel within this period if I can’t get through? #threeuk

  • TonyMaloneUK Tony Malone (@TonyMaloneUK) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Still with three as I had more than one account... wanted to upgrade my other one too but hit same issues as simply can’t talk to any one in mobile broadband customer service

  • mattrymon Matt Rymon (@mattrymon) reported from Marshfield, Wales

    SO Disappointed with the level of service from @ThreeUK Recommended a family member to them and never received the referral money even though I have chased 5 times! 6 months on! Shocking service.

  • 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. 😡

  • AdamLee2011 Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport how long are you customer service systems going to be down? 3 days now I have been trying to speak to somebody to cancel my contract and 3 days I’ve been told system is down. #three #network #shitcompany

  • gordonpr1c3 Gordon Price (@gordonpr1c3) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Shouldn't the message read, Hi, valued customer, we are super busy right now, please try again later? Or something other than we are closed?

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

    That @ThreeUK broadband customer survey was interesting. Answered all the questions.

  • Champers_88 Charmaine (@Champers_88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I’m having issues when people are calling me sometimes it says number invalid. Any suggestions?

  • 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

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

    @XiaomiUK @Android @ThreeUK Hey! What usually happens is, when I start a message with another 'Chat' user it can still be on SMS. I'm settings Chat will dispy as Connecting & sometimes fail. Or when another messages me they see it as txt not Chat. There's been a software update recently, it seems better now

  • ffion_sb 𝕱𝖋𝖎𝖔𝖓 𝕾𝕭 (@ffion_sb) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK are lowkey the best network, just changed my contract and I’m paying £11 a month for all you can eat data, unlimited texts and calls 👀

  • AdamLee2011 Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport worse company I’ve ever had to deal with. Trying to cancel is a nightmare. Just cancel my contract useless ***** 😡

  • DjGiggsy Giggsy (@DjGiggsy) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @djphilg101 @ThreeUK You should have 5G down with you now, 4G is good up here tbf

  • JAMIEGRANNELL Jamie LFC Grannell (@JAMIEGRANNELL) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport despite weeks of promises of soemone calling me and myself daily contacting you via live chat I’m still no closer to resolving issue. I have numerous contracts with you are you going to keep ignoring me as I’ll take my business elsewhere all five plans

  • kellsandbulls 𝕂𝕖𝕝𝕝𝕪 (@kellsandbulls) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport how long is the website going to be down for please? I have been trying all morning to get on there.

  • AdamLee2011 Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

  • kels80 Kels (@kels80) reported

    @ThreeUK Hi, I moved to a new sim only tariff with you recently and the first 6 months was advertised as half price, however I’m being charged full price. Are you able to help me? Thanks

  • Zoumaired Mino (@Zoumaired) reported

    @ThreeUK @ChelseaFC @ChelseaFCinUSA you are the worst sponsor chelsea have had

  • prettyprovoking Jordan Evans (@prettyprovoking) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK still waiting for the Google Pixel 5 to be in stock for upgrades and your customer service (though lovely) can't tell me when they'll be back. Yet new customers can buy them online no issue. I've been with you for more than 5 years, but it seems that doesn't matter...

  • Wullster Wullster (@Wullster) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport order a new iPhone 12, they lose the order, take money out my account, I cancel the order, they give me compensation, the phone arrives, they won’t take it back. 7 hours on calls and no progress !

  • MilinduW Milindu Wickramarachchi (@MilinduW) reported

    the 3 customer dude just said to my mum that she has a nice name, he's hitting on her - bro this a new low for @ThreeUK

  • beatrixgrimbly Beatrix Grimbly (@beatrixgrimbly) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport @aaronbrockhurst So frustrating. Between this password error and the constant errors with adding top-ups/add-ons it’s almost like Three are trying to lose customers on purpose!

  • stevejibailey1 Steve Bailey (@stevejibailey1) reported

    @Vitt2tsnoc @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK And they’re a truly awful company to deal with from a CS perspective. Apart from BT I’ve never known a worse company for Customer service. I’d never ever go with them, ever. Funny tho as o2 are the complete diametric opposite, amazing service, benefits, deals, can’t fault them.

  • loueeren Louise Re (@loueeren) reported

    One more year and I’ll finally be free from my toxic relationship with @ThreeUK 😭. Clearly didn’t learn my lesson the first time. Worst network in the UK. All that data but never any reception. Serves me right for cheating on @TheO2 😒

  • subject_z24 Timo-too fast for you-Werner (@subject_z24) reported

    @ThreeUK @ChelseaFC @ChelseaFCinUSA Never ever hype a match like this again

  • geoitforme Geoitforme (@geoitforme) reported

    @ThreeUK worst service I’ve ever had from a mobile supplier and I’m not even a customer yet. Applied for a PAYG SIM card 8 days ago and nothing not even an email acknowledgment tried again 3 days ago, guess what SAME AGAIN now looking at another supplier. DISGRACEFUL SRV’CE
