  • antoinettedunle Antoinette (@antoinettedunle) reported

    @tescomobile have tried numerous times to register and it won't allow me to register (tried on laptop and mobile). Can somebody help pls? Keep getting error message saying registration cannot be finished (always when I try to skip the club card section)

  • notoriousgreen1 notorious green (@notoriousgreen1) reported

    @tescomobile Nope we are all on Tesco in this house and we are having the same problems as bob up the road and Mary in the next town!! It's not our new phones that we have all just been and up graded or the sims it's your Dodge network, apparently you know there is a problem in this area!!!

  • HelenDoyle_5 Helen ♊ (@HelenDoyle_5) reported

    @tescomobile just changed from EE where I had 4g pretty much everywhere to Tesco and the first few days using it I can barely get a signal, all I get is h and nothing loads when off wifi. Really regretting leaving EE now!!

  • _bxston Demi :) (@_bxston) reported

    @tescomobile It’s not issues all the time but the real issue he’s having is his 4G not working and such

  • Jessies_Kitchen The Crazy Kitchen (@Jessies_Kitchen) reported

    @tescomobile is there an issue with the network today? My son hasn’t been able to get 3/4G today. Plenty of data left

  • Thingummyjig3 Thingummyjig (@Thingummyjig3) reported

    @tescomobile Just to be clear, this was a queue of 3 people (them and me) for mobile phone help, not the till check-out. The couple wanted to buy a new mobile phone and take out a year's contract with you. They left empty handed. I helped them later. You lost 3 customers that day.

  • tom1tc TL Moore (@tom1tc) reported

    @tescomobile can you assist with an issue logging in to my account please. Online and app showing up with issues

  • HelenDoyle_5 Helen ♊ (@HelenDoyle_5) reported

    @tescomobile I only moved to you because my husband has a phone with you. He is also having the same issue as me. Really disappointing after 16 years with EE and no signal issues.

  • Tanhouse1 tanhouse1🇪🇺 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #LUFC #FBPE FBPR (@Tanhouse1) reported

    @tescomobile pls can you say how to cancel online. EE and daughter could not find? Will it require a pointless phonecall? Request for number transfer already done!

  • _bxston Demi :) (@_bxston) reported

    @tescomobile How would that work though when his phone is locked to Tesco network? There’s no way of us testing this out on another phone..

  • jensnursing Jenna💜 (@jensnursing) reported

    @tescomobile hello my phone screen a bugging out a lot lately and I have no control over it most of the time (I’ve written this tweet 4 times now and my screen closes down the app) I need it repaired but also can’t be without it due to my work, please can someone dm me?

  • _bxston Demi :) (@_bxston) reported

    @tescomobile hi my boyfriend has had issues with his phone with 4G not working doesn’t matter where we are, we’ve been to Cardiff all weekend and it wasn’t working. He’s also having problems when he’s making phone calls..

  • MarcusDuffen MarkDuffen (@MarcusDuffen) reported

    @tescomobile Your 4g speeds seem to be getting increasingly slow , particularly in Staffordshire. Also , when can we expect to get 5g coverage in more places - it’s currently woeful .

  • DaveGander Dave Gander (@DaveGander) reported

    @tescomobile More atrocious service in the Lewes area. Major signal issues, lost work, unable to contact family, customers or friends. Useless assistant in Tesco Lewes says it's up to me to claim compensation. Like hell it is it's your duty to provide it without being asked.

  • SGC1978 Simon Chambers (@SGC1978) reported

    @tescomobile I've spent an hour this morning trying to sort out your issue with customer services, but the solution offered is far from ideal and requires further, unnecessary work on my behalf to resolve. Not happy and feeling concerned by what has happened / is happening.

  • leonosullivan Leon O'Sullivan (@leonosullivan) reported

    @tescomobile Hi, I'm getting a 'SIM 2 not allowed' error message, preventing me from making/receiving calls. Can you help?

  • PFindersDomain Stewart Grainger (@PFindersDomain) reported

    @tescomobile Status checked, and issue fixed in the area, I will also monitor and continue to report.

  • SoniaWoodhams sonia woodhams (@SoniaWoodhams) reported

    @tescomobile Thank Callum. I felt very patronised on the chat. I will now be leaving Tesco . Such poor customer service.

  • obriekp Johnny O’Brien (@obriekp) reported

    @tescomobileire has to be one of the worst providers for travel abroad. Three days in London and unable to get data or calls. Companion on @VodafoneIreland and seamless connections. Time to move from #tescomobile

  • deanthorpe172 Dean Thorpe (@deanthorpe172) reported

    @tescomobile And yet the cost of an out of contract data bundle is £6 for one gigabyte, I will be making a complaint, through the media, and also the ombudsman as this is just wrong. It was a rare occurrence that happened only once but clearly @tescomobile have no compassion or morality.

  • oliversmission Olivers Mission 🇬🇧❤🇺🇦 Посмішка Іллі (@oliversmission) reported

    @VodafoneUK Wish we never moved from you to @tescomobile Data drops, coverage is poor, especially inside, no wifi calling etc. Pay your money, take your chances. Vodafone were getting too expensive, but never had an issue. #dailyissues with Tesco mobile. Three contracts, all have issues.

  • _bxston Demi :) (@_bxston) reported

    @tescomobile It’s not really possible to be testing it on another phone.. he recently just took out a new phone contract with you and it’s been crap ever since

  • lillypoirot Valerie (@lillypoirot) reported

    @tescomobile I thought you were part of the O2 network??? Why wasn't I informed about this when I signed up?

  • daniellismore Daniel Lismore (@daniellismore) reported

    Dear @tescomobile someone is you if your service to scam people out of money including my friend. This is their number. Please take action +447596249311

  • Charlot03365887 Charlotte Willshire (@Charlot03365887) reported

    @tescomobile shocking service, trying to port mobile number since 24th August, should take 24 hours, its been 14 days. Both numbers now inactive no number for work or banking. Keep getting fobbed off, getting cross pathetic customer service, being lied to constantly.

  • Tom_T91 Tom (@Tom_T91) reported

    Can someone at @tescomobile help with a logging in issue. I sit on the phone to customer service to get cut off 3 times in a row and web chat is not working. I just want to log into my app with my newly ported number.

  • keysermooze MOOSEHORN (@keysermooze) reported

    @tescomobile firstly 4g running slow all weekend. To the point I couldn't connect to my push doctor appointment this morning. Secondly tesco mobile app doesn't recognise my postcode. Thirdly customer service sends me a link that doesn't work.

  • MissEmilyStrong Emily Hawthorn (@MissEmilyStrong) reported

    Sorting through your deceased husbands stuff is hard enough and most companies have been good to deal with but @tescomobile you have been awful! Horrendous company 👎

  • SGC1978 Simon Chambers (@SGC1978) reported

    @tescomobile A catalogue of errors on your behalf which has left me (currently) being switched to a PAYG contract.... I could document all the errors here but don't think you'd appreciate the negative publicity. And, to mention, none of this is my fault and have complied 100% with your terms.
