    @ThreeUK 4G service is crap! In London all day today. Full 4G signal, no service. Had to turn off. On the train now, 4G signal but no service. This is being tweeted on 3G. Similar problems in Newcastle. Looking to switch.

  • SunderlanDave Dave Lee (@SunderlanDave) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @ThreeUKSupport We are still getting nowhere with this a now just received a bill for early termination fee... Your customer service is absolutely appalling what a shambles if a company you are

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England

    @ThreeUKSupport very very poor service

  • stobbsmeister Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Murton, England

    @ThreeUK Aren't you the network that promised not to ditch EU roaming? Yet your subsidiary @SMARTYMobileUK still offer inclusive EU roaming. Genuinely couldn't wait to ditch three. Absolute money grab!

  • wils_pw Paul Wilson - AKA Sunday Willy (@wils_pw) reported from Shildon, England

    @ThreeUKSupport It's been like this for a long time to be honest, it's the area where I work. No of my colleagues seem to have any issues, mine is constantly lagging.

  • chopper602 Tim Robson (@chopper602) reported from Hurworth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Had the router for about 12 months. Your tech support couldn't find a problem, but seemed to be keen to go home for 8pm

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Ive been to the shop nearby (40mile round trip like i was asked to, got there and your systems were down!!!! Just going round in circles here, very poor service

  • chopper602 Tim Robson (@chopper602) reported from Hurworth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Strangely after talking to support and not getting a resolution, we are now connected again. How long before 5g is rolled out to my postcode?

  • feenjo Jo 💙💙 (@feenjo) reported from Murton, England

    @ThreeUKSupport it there a network issue is SR7 area as both my mobile and broadband seem to be effected

  • leeds2d JT (@leeds2d) reported from Bishop Auckland, England

    @Parlez_me_nTory @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK I tried 3 once but as I worked in 2 locations I needed reassurances that coverage was good at both. Yes they said. Got a sim and got half a bar at home and 1 bar at work 🙈 Their Customer Svc virtually called me a liar so binned them

  • remenos Joanne Emerson (@remenos) reported from Sherburn Hill, England

    So frustrated with @ThreeUK now. Parents’ mobile broadband won’t work and @ThreeUKSupport won’t talk to me despite power of attorney. So essentially elderly parents being charged for service they’re not receiving and no way of fixing it #customerservicefail

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Spennymoor, England

    @ThreeUKSupport No its still not sorted.... despite seeing proof of age etc at the time in your shop where they asked me to go, when i got there your systems were down so it wasnt sorted. You wont sort it till i do another 40 mile round trip to the nearest shop yet again

  • RobLow_7 W. W. L. D. ? He'd stay at home. (@RobLow_7) reported from Sacriston, England

    @nelliecarty @ThreeUK same with @skytv as long as you pay and don't complain they treat you with disdain. All they're interested in is new custom

  • SunderlanDave Dave Lee (@SunderlanDave) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @ThreeUKSupport It is now over a week since the incident and apart from receiving a bill for early termination yet you knew he didn't ask for the PAC code we have had no correspondence from 3 we are going to the press on this and you better have answers for them as we are contacting your CEO

  • chopper602 Tim Robson (@chopper602) reported from Hurworth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Since this morning. Your tech support couldn't find a problem, but seemed to be keen to go home for 8pm

  • living_life_me Living Life! (@living_life_me) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport @ShannonOsborrne It’s a bit ridiculous cos Smarty IS owned by three yet they make it out like it’s so hard. They all use the same network

  • niuou Vinski (@niuou) reported

    @ThreeUK is your site experiencing issues? I cannot sign in on pc or app.

  • BAL_D4KU_SINGH Bal Singh (@BAL_D4KU_SINGH) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport That's amazing... Just wondering why it's taken two weeks nearly to port a number over then??? One piss poor excuse after another... I'd understand if it was issues with different networks but... It's. Three PAYG to Monthly...

  • MislaMonty Allegedly Anna Ⓥ #ClimateEmergency (@MislaMonty) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport The issue persists whatever the browser.

  • iSax_UK Alistair Parnell (@iSax_UK) reported

    @ThreeUK I’m trying to work out why I’ve just spent an hour on chat being told I’m a ‘valued’ customer only to be offered a worse SIM deal than I could have got directly on your website myself. This feels incredibly dishonest! Has anyone else had this experience?

  • crumph Chris G (@crumph) reported

    @scully1888 @ThreeUK Three are mostly a joke but it was handy having free data when abroad earlier in the year. They have enough problems with signal in parts of Glasgow/SL. You can normally get a data sim/virtual sim cheap for countries outside the free usage areas.

  • AlbanNshimiye Chels fan of Rwanda (@AlbanNshimiye) reported

    @OliviaBuzaglo @ThreeUK How can I do to get this? I am in need of it. Please help

  • spinningoutaday Mr Danny (@spinningoutaday) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It's been around 4 or 5 weeks roughly. Biggest issue is the phone still shows good signal, so WiFi call doesn't always kick in and then the other end can't hear me on calls. My partner has contacted I think, I'm with iD Mobile who are investigating for me.

  • harlequin_1963 Gary Mackenzie (@harlequin_1963) reported

    @jbayrshire @ThreeUK thought it was just me having problems

  • matt_sapper Matt (@matt_sapper) reported

    @ThreeUK Hi, network status has been non existent for nearly 24hrs in NG33 postcode. Please can you clarify why there is no signal or connectivity in this area?
