@ThreeUK I am being HOUNDED daily by scam callers.. is there anything you can do as a network??

Somebodyelse (@nobodywillobsrv) reported
@ThreeUKSupport Last iteration seems to have gone through now. At first it did not show. If the payment is solved, the only thing left is how can I report a dead zone in the three network?

@ThreeUKSupport hey! I’d love to switch to using you from VOXI - SIM only - I’ve never switched providers before, is there a way to keep my phone number? As I have a lot of people contact me on it
-
Jay (@blueStripeLeadr) reported
Ok @threeuk. Your MiFi cannot support a PS4 connection. Whenever it tries the MiFi decide just disconnects everything. Remind me, what am I paying for if you can’t provide a service?

Shaun S. (@plymavfc) reported
@ThreeUKSupport Hi, my number was supposed to be transferred to my new Three SIM today but it hasn’t happened. Please help.

@ThreeUKSupport Maybe, but performance has dropped of a cliff recently. Usually 50/30, 40/25 never 20/1. It never drops to wifi calling unless data speed drops as well.

I asked for a replacement SIM for about 7 days ago. 1st time I was told due to a technical problem it has not been delivered. After many chats on CS, I was sent the new one but it was said the SIM was faulty. I try third time now? What a poor CS @ThreeUK

Somebodyelse (@nobodywillobsrv) reported
@ThreeUKSupport I can not top up. I can not input my correct address. I have nearly no signal either.

Peter Mc Daid (@PeterMcDaidWine) reported
@ThreeUKSupport SIM will not read in devices, and customer support was dictatorial in 'no refunds'. Would not transfer me to anyone els (Vijay in Mumbai Supercharged Data office - said he has no employee number and 'I'm the only Vijay'). Next steps?

Peter Mc Daid (@PeterMcDaidWine) reported
@ThreeUKSupport Hi Kymberlie, went to chat support and they first told me I'd not been charged, then that the SIM wasn't active, then that is WAS active, then to go to point of sale for refund, then that there was no refund possible and that the SIM was fine - even though it's not 'readable'

Gokhan Celebi (@agokhan) reported
Been told the SIM was activated many times by your colleagues but it has never been the case. @ThreeUK

sam (@sxmwht) reported
@ThreeUKSupport Admittedly I don't make many calls, but I received a call yesterday evening from someone whom I know is not on 3, and it was fine. It might be a problem with the recipient's phone. I'm just wondering if there is any testing I can do to narrow it down. Any known issues in CB24?
-
Somebodyelse (@nobodywillobsrv) reported
@ThreeUKSupport There is some major problem with the website though. It keeps asking me to re-login and then register my number. It's like the cookies or auth mechanism is partially offline or something. Do you have internal site metrics? They might be fixing something.

David Groom (@groomyxs) reported
@ThreeUK I am looking to cancel 1 of my sim cards but would like the pac code can I go into the local @ThreeUK shop and sort this out?
-
Dave Thirly (@D_Thirlwell) reported
@ThreeUKSupport Some? Behave. I've had about 10 chats. After agreeing to cancel my contract as its in the final months for free. I've just tried to use the PAC CODE and it's been cancelled!
