  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RobBruceK @ThreeUK @O2 @EE @VodafoneUK No awful. Just spent 5 days with no data/calls due ti Insufficient bandwidth. My family and friends who were with O2/BT/Vodaphone had no problems. Worst ever. So regret leaving previous provider last month. Their coverage checker is inaccurate too

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport @StroopWafel13 Your service at Glastonbury was virtually non existence! No other providers had the issues 3 customers did at Glastonbury!!

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport They said wait a week and try again, and it’s still horrendously slow.

  • KrisheleG Krishele Guzman (@KrisheleG) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @dlever21 @ThreeUK My problem was they added a new condition this time that said if you haven't used it since January. but @ThreeUK ran the offer in May and I used it then. Guaranteed they caught LOADS of people out 😡

  • MK__C MK (@MK__C) reported from Barry, Wales

    Imagine waiting 30 odd minutes for the upgrades department to then be put to customer service who then says yeah upgrades is down at the moment @ThreeUK 🙃 Legit wasted my time

  • MartynPreece79 Martyn Preece (@MartynPreece79) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK great if you have no issues, as soon as there’s a problem they give all the bull!! 👎👎👎

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @JohnDubyaUK @ThreeUK Yeah they’re all in such a rush to get 5G out, they just seem to have given up on trying to get 4G sorted out. At least show me I’ve got a crap signal, don’t pretend it’s all full speed and awesome.

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport No improvement after a restart and I tried 3 different phones so I know it’s not my phone. The phone is on 3G most of the time anyway and it is around the same speed as 4G. The signal is absolutely terrible.

  • KrisheleG Krishele Guzman (@KrisheleG) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Horrible T&Cs usage by @ThreeUK and #Wuntu on their Google Play offer. Tricked me into charging my bill instead of using the offer!!

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Exactly the same problem I had with @ThreeUKSupport at #Glastonbury. No service unable to keep in contact with my family both onsite and off. Their coverage checker is false for the vale of avalon area! #ripoff #falseadvertising #threeuk #3

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport This was in CF83 1XP and it’s been terribly slow for months now.

  • oxWelshElisexox 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿Welsh Elise🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿2k (@oxWelshElisexox) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @EnglishPhoebeX1 @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport **** mines been cutting out on calls but not no network

  • WildthingJ74 Johnathan Williams (@WildthingJ74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @samboc86 @hockey_laura @Apple @ThreeUK I hate change and I'm sure they bank on being being apprehensive about it. I'm never going back to them

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

    @jgfoxy @O2 @ThreeUK Good choice! I love being with 3 and find my signal is much better than that on my work phone which is o2.

  • SueLidds Susanne Liddeatt (@SueLidds) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @ThreeUKSupport This mornings ‘live chat’ seems to have solved the problem. I will wait to see if I no longer get two contract bills . I live in hope !

  • Bubwal Ade (@Bubwal) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @jaybee_ms Moved to them last month. Advise against it. Data service has been awful. Wish I'd never moved provider. Tried all the main providers and 3 is by far the worst #threeuk #crap

  • welsh_stu 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Stuart 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Been through this, you won’t check as it’s a business account and the business team never follow up. 2 years ago Caerphilly had around 40mb down now it’s about 4mb down and no one there seems bothered.

  • SueLidds Susanne Liddeatt (@SueLidds) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @ThreeUKSupport They have absolutely messed the whole thing up! I have no 4g, no phonecall facility and when I check the plan on the app I seem to have reverted to the old one. Each ‘chat’ tells me it will be ‘perfect and not to worry’ total nightmare! I’m paying for an invisible service

  • TicketTattle Andrew Thomas (@TicketTattle) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @omnitix @ThreeUK first 3G only network innit

  • ClareO74 Clare Owen (@ClareO74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK Not great service! Look after your loyal customers #loyalcustomersmeannothing 😡

    Literally in shock at how bad the Internet is. Standing outside your store on market Street manchester and can't even open Google @ThreeUK

  • IanBirch1978 Ian Birch (@IanBirch1978) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi , no its his account , he called today to explain he’d changed it accidentally & was told they cant help !

  • nitesh_jindal_ Nitesh Jindal (@nitesh_jindal_) reported

    @48Ireland @ThreeUK Guys please beware of 48 network operator. There are only bots who work. I had a simple port rquest from Three to 48, and it is stil in prgress since last 8 days. They have no chat support, even they have it is inefficient. They blaming Three for not releasing my nmbr

  • V13St3 ST3V13 (@V13St3) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport your option to top up on the phone system is not working. Before confirming there is a message and option 2 ends your call!

  • deafmilkybarkid Deafy (@deafmilkybarkid) reported

    Advice needed: Broadband is with @ThreeUK, however, they are unable to continue to provide service at my new address but insist that I continue paying despite having 0 internet. What can I do?

  • KadronG Kadron Gregory (@KadronG) reported

    As I am aware is that we already got you setup on our servers so a second access is not allowed” now @ThreeUK hasn’t educate its customer service team as to the fact that there is a smartwatch pairing service because times and times again I have to be sending @ThreeUK staffs..

  • Scuzzie2k Paul Martin (@Scuzzie2k) reported

    @_KoLAN_80 @stargazer_synyx @ThreeUKSupport Same here tech support are hopeless

  • SomewhereOnAMwy SomewhereOnaMotorway 🚨🚔❌ (@SomewhereOnAMwy) reported

    @deafmilkybarkid @ThreeUK Consumer rights act might help you.

  • spa3010 Stephen Anderson (@spa3010) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Charging for international roaming is ridiculous and not what I "signed" up for, when back from holiday I'll be calling to cancel this contract as you've changed it mid term and I'm neither happy nor satisfied with that.

  • nathanwright74 nathan wright (@nathanwright74) reported

    @ThreeUK when will you be fixing your Apple Watch pairing problem ???
