    @ThreeUK I have just had the worst customer service experience I have ever had. My knowledge of your products and services was much better than your staff. Also, TV noise un background made it hard to understand the Glaswegian accent and adviser 2 spoke fast and did not listen 😡

    @DJAshBash @ThreeUKSupport I'm a Three user and have had experience of both good and bad network in and around the Cardiff area. What Three are stating is true but it's taking longer than they planned originally. Three have the largest 5G bandwidth allocation of all the UK networks plus they also have..

    @ThreeUKSupport You have lost me a customer as of today and my complaint is currently with the ombudsman. Your staff and managers are awful!

    Christian Clark (@christianfclark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Have been with @ThreeUK for years and always been very happy with service. However since renewing to a 24 month contract and 5G getting turned on, my service has been absolutely terrible. Terrible or no 3G/4G, calls cutting out or failing. 1/2

    @ThreeUKSupport Is the same whit whatever I do. Every area I’m going specially when is crowded around me. I have changed SIM cards, phone and the problem is still here

    @DJAshBash @ThreeUKSupport ..a new chunk of 4G 1500mHz aka Ban.d 32. When they're actually commissioned the Three network has huge potential to deal with all these issues virtually overnight. Sadly they don't communicate the cause and ther solutions very well hence disappointed customers.

    On hold to @ThreeUK possibly the worst phone company i’ve ever encountered in my whole life

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve just had the worst #customerservice experience I have ever. My knowledge of your products and services was much better than your staff. Also, TV background noise made it hard to understand the Glasgow accent and adviser 2 spoke fast and did not listen 😡

  • peterkin1010
    Peter MacCabe (@peterkin1010) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @PedroClarke1 @ThreeUK Sadly my Three is still crap where I've in Penarth. And it hasn't changed much in the centre of Cardiff either.

    Shane (@gingio) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @NathanWyburnArt @Apple I’m having a similar issue and @ThreeUK won’t do anything about it. They told me to download some app which won’t help anyway as it’s unknown caller. I think next step is I’ll be forced to change my number 😐

  • TrystanOwens
    drunkmuppet (@TrystanOwens) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport can I make a complaint as recently you always seem to have problems in my area which is impeding my services.

  • christianfclark
    Christian Clark (@christianfclark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes I usually switch between when my 4G struggles. My calls have been dropping and not working properly too though in a variety of locations.

    Gabrielle Jenkins (@x_Gabrielle_x) reported from Newport, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Worst company i’ve ever encountered. No wonder why your basically failing as a company

  • abbie_hunt
    abbie (@abbie_hunt) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUK I had to change my data to ‘3G’ as advised from your in store staff, because the network is so slow atm.

  • SimoneJonesx
    Simone Jasmine Jones (@SimoneJonesx) reported from Alway, Wales

    Imagine being a @ThreeUK customer with 2 contracts for years on end and being told to find another service provider because they can’t fix the masts in my area and then refuse to refund what I’ve paid off this mobile or even pay my upfront cost for my next phone 😡 #scabs

  • Dariogutier
    Darío Gutier (@Dariogutier) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ThreeUKSupport Yeah and the problem was still there, my phone was changed because apparently was the phone and the problem is still here! It’s been 2 years contract in hell!! I can’t wait to finish it

    @ThreeUK why am I paying for a service that NEVER works at my house - BS494EQ

  • peterkin1010
    Peter MacCabe (@peterkin1010) reported from Barry, Wales

    @DJAshBash @ThreeUKSupport @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK I am also on Vodafone. And I would agree they now have overall a formidable network But they have less bandwith 5G than Three..50mHz as opposed to 140mHz so when Three eventually launch 5G 5G it'll be interesting how it all pans out.

    I have never had such an infuriating phonecall in my life until just now with @ThreeUK customer service. I called up to ask a simple question about canceling my contract and asked at least four times and was constantly bombarded with...

    @ThreeUK Really sad and annoyed at the level of help 3 are willing to give their customers even when trying to discuss financial difficulties, no one seems to want to help at all.

  • Bluebelldan
    Di Butters (@Bluebelldan) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport having network issues with box & mobiles. Cutting off on phones & can't stream or use Internet. Like this for well over a month, despite calls to you. Difficult to talk as keep getting cut off. Reset box about 20 times, no different. Will cancel today if not fixed

  • RetroSnowflake
    Victoria Wilson (@RetroSnowflake) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes, I eventually managed to get my contract cancelled but I shouldn't have had to ask numerous times. I was a long time customer and the entire situation was so frustrating.
