    It’s goodbye to @ThreeUK you lost a loyal customer with one price hike too much, and Hello @tescomobile same contract I was on before but at the price I paid 4 years ago, with a bonus of upping my monthly data to 250gb for a year, was a no brainer to switch

  • Nicsboys2 Nic Foakes (@Nicsboys2) reported from Grays, England

    @tescomobile can some contact me. My Mother recently left @ee for your network. Nothing but problems, now her sim isn't working and she's without a phone. What are you doing?

    Yo, @tescomobile, are you gonna be selling Google Pixel 5's or 4A 5G's? I wanna come back to your network but want one of those handsets!

  • hovis21 Tom Wright (@hovis21) reported

    @tescomobile hi there. Got a quick question to help out my octogenarian dad who's a customer of yours. He has a pay as you go phone with you but wants a new one. He can't get the sim out of the old phone. If he buys a new phone from you, can you transfer his number to a new sim?

  • MhairiHodge Mhairi Hodge (@MhairiHodge) reported

    @tescomobile Nope not a thing. That’s why I resorted to here. I finally found another way, and got it done. But with no thanks to your customer services

    @tescomobile Diolch yn Fawr Jade Apparently the engineers are on the case for this blackout but are there any plans to increase coverage in the Rhondda or is it being scaled down ready for 5G? Have o2 been reducing power ouput as the last 12 months the signals become weaker and weaker?🤔🙁
