    I’ve had my mob number for over 13 years. @bt_uk confirmed with bills, PAC code. Yet when I tried to port it to @tescomobile, they repeatedly claimed my number was “inactive,” ignored my accessibility needs, and refused to escalate my complaint despite me asking multiple times.

    @colinsmith50 @tescomobile I do not understand why Tesco mobile is being criticized or complained about every single day but none of the other companies. My experience of them is that they are one of the best companies in the UK for service and everything

    I am fcukin furious with @tescomobile I put £10 on mobile 1st March, haven't made a phone call, or text or used internet and credit has evaporated. Noo credit today. No explanation from Tesco/Twitter or cust svs. I will now leave/find another provider and never shop in tesco agai

  • StefScope
    Amy (@StefScope) reported

    @tescomobile Why was I told a refund would be processed yet now I’ve received an email stating it won’t. You can not take payment for a service, cut off that service and keep the money for it. Absolutely furious at the lack of customer service and ineptness of your ‘care’ team.

    @tescomobile I upgraded the 4 sim only contracts I have with you, & decided to add a 5th contract with a new S26 over 3 years. Ordered, paid, & nothing arrived. Cust 📞 service told me it was deemed suspicious & cancelled. I tried in store , but it wouldn’t go through…1/2

    @tescomobile your delivery service is a joke. Apparently I have missed my delivery but having been in all day why didn't the door go? My phone has been broken for weeks and you haven't replaced it. Angry is not the word

    @tescomobile Hey, loving this new 'guess when you'll have network' game. Been going on since 28th Feb...getting told it's 5 working days then another 5 days. No one ever updates me. Is there a leader board or prizes?

  • MrChrisAdley
    Chris Adley (@MrChrisAdley) reported

    @adzk80 @tescomobile I gave up she's been told all week the SIM will be activated in 24 hours, yesterday live chat tried saying the mast in the area was down (rubbish as my phone was fine)and then reverted to will be active in 24 hours, this was too much for an 80 year old so boxed it up .....

  • MissKillikelly
    1234 (@MissKillikelly) reported

    @tescomobile I did a network reset and still no joy. A member of your team told me to raise a formal complaint and this will be responded to within 24-48 hours. AGAIN, this has still not been fulfilled. I am paying for a service I am not receiving. I want this resolving ASAP!

    @tescomobile The mast must be down in Polegate. No 5G or even 4G for days. Can you advise exactly when my service will return please?

    Maddy🤙 (@22_maddy_08) reported

    @tescomobile hello, I’ve stuck my new sim in my new phone (sim only colleague super deal) & the sim shows no service. It still shows no service when I put it in my old phone that’s on the same Tesco super colleague deal.
