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

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

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

    @ThreeUK i keep losing signal on Barry Island, postcode CF62 5TQ. It’s stopping me tweeting 😭

  • 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 !

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

    This is the worst rip-off ever. £19.09 for calling @parcelforce on their 09 number at over £3 a minute. + The expensive access charge from @ThreeUK didn't help. There was no 08 or 03 number as an option. @Ofcom needs to address this issue & Parcelforce needs to kill the 09 num:

  • 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

  • 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

  • RosskoKeniston Rossko 👉👉 (@RosskoKeniston) reported from Porth, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport I'm nearing the end of a two year contract! I don't live in a great signal area unfortunately, calls tend not to reach my phone at home unless I have the WiFi on. I'm definitely not complaining, there are huge benefits to Three, InTouch was literally a lifesaver a while back!

  • 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.

  • matthewthowells hi i’m matthew (@matthewthowells) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I don't usually have good experiences with customer support calls, but tonight's call was one of the best I've had. Finally, staff that I can clearly hear and understand. Unfortunately I am moving on from Three but your staff tonight were excellent. 👍

  • jrdnphp jrdn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@jrdnphp) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport This was yesterday mind! I have not tried that, but if I experience it again I’ll switch. I was with a couple of people on 3 who had full 4G signal but no connectivity so am pretty sure it’s not my device, if that helps any!! Thanks

  • 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

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

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

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

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

  • 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!!

  • 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

  • RosskoKeniston Rossko 👉👉 (@RosskoKeniston) reported from Porth, Wales

    This may be something that only affects me but it's hugely unfortunate @ThreeUK are discontinuing their Three In Touch app. I don't have that great a signal in my house and being able to make calls and text over WiFi was a massive benefit. Arg.

  • 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!! 👎👎👎

  • 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

  • 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 😡

  • 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!!

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport So I guess for now the only practical thing I can do is put my spending cap up to £20 so I do actually have the headroom over and above my normal bill that I expected. You need to fix your system or fix the wording on your website.

  • HappilyUnwoke HappilyUnwoke 🇺🇦🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇸✡️🦖💚🤍💜 (@HappilyUnwoke) reported

    @ThreeUK I left your service nearly a year ago but I've got a debit on my bank account under "H3G" as a giro payment for £17.39 is this yourselves or a scam please? #H3G

  • peasmoldia Gary James Actor 🎭 (@peasmoldia) reported

    @_FearFighter_ @ThreeUK I don’t know where to turn next to be honest. I keep Three because I can use my allowance when in Australia and the US. But the signal here in the UK is bloody awful.

  • MrsJay14 Kathryn 📚 (@MrsJay14) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, in the USA atm and phone constantly auto selects AT&T network which doesn't include making/ receiving calls. Keep having to manually switch to T mobile to make call/listen to VM. Any tips to stay on T mobile? I've followed all the data roaming tips on app.

  • Laurent617 CHA5ER (@Laurent617) reported

    @ThreeUK I have had 3 mobile broadband for 2 weeks and for almost a week i have had no service at all. i have made 7 calls/contacts to cancel within my 14 day and the agents keep deflecting me to technical team and refuse to cancel until i am over the 14 day restriction. Help!!!

  • CJD2K Dr Christopher Dillon (@CJD2K) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Started last night around 6:30, still ongoing. I’ve changed the DNS servers on each of my devices which has fixed the problem, but I have some devices which I cant change the settings on (smart bulbs, Alexa etc), which are having issues staying connected.

  • GlensChels Marcos (@GlensChels) reported

    @SiandDanTalkCFC @ChelseaFC Shame they couldn't have removed the awful '3' from it @ThreeUK

  • itsdanharvard Dan Harvard (@itsdanharvard) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport been on a train today and I must say compared to O2 and EE the signal across the country was appalling. Impossible to do anything. 1 bar or no service at all the entire time.

  • Fizzinnf David Physick (@Fizzinnf) reported

    Very disappointing @vodafone. My daughter been a customer for 20 yrs, yet somehow an a/c has been set up fraudulently in her name. Rather than consider merging with @ThreeUK you'd be far better getting basics right to prevent such fraud. Now, should I renew my a/c of 25+ years?

  • Toms_Metal Tom Brandwood (@Toms_Metal) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It connects, but no internet. There is signal and data on the phones, but it’s like Hotspot has been broken/disabled network side since all 4 went at the same time
