  Dr Karen Howells (@mind4sportpsych) reported 29 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @tescomobile I have not had a signal for 3 days now. I’ve been told that there is maintenance work being done on a local mast, but even when I move 30 mins away from home then I still don’t have a signal. What is happening??

  @tescomobile I can’t call or receive calls today, get call fail on them all but I’m able to text and use data without a problem. Is there a problem in the CF63 area?

  Seriously getting sick of the awful signal from @tescomobile 4 years I’ve been a customer and have 4 contracts with you spending &150-£160 a month and it’s getting worse everyday! Been trying to speak to someone all day (friend) and constantly getting call failed 😡

  @tescomobile my mobile data has just stopped working. Still got over 10GB available to me though. Is there a Network problem?

  @tescomobile what is the escalation process regarding a faulty phone that has been lost by @Tesco? My OAP mother has been without a phone since September and promises to resolve have failed. No senior support from Pengam Green Management or in-store guidance. #disgracefulservice

  @tescomobile re account 808724.I am extremely disappointed in Tescomobile response to the local mast outage which keeps happening for long periods preventing my household working from home. The recent outage started 24th April and persists to this day, so 4 days so far. The last outage from 28th March (maybe earlier) to 2nd April was also unacceptable. In fairness the last outage was refunded (a month) but the reaction from Tesco this time has been limp. Firstly Tesco should exert ultimate pressure on O2 to permanently fix this mast, in the 21st century having 4 day+ outages is not admissible. Secondly the agent reply to me to ‘let Tesco know’ when service is resumed is risible. Tesco should be all over this at least refunding my month payment if not more. I have another contract with Giff Gaff who use O2 and on hearing the service was down immediately refunded me….this is customer service and excellent customer recovery. Everytime I need the internet or need to phone I have to get in my car and drive 2 miles to keep contact with the outside world (we have no landline).Of course I can’t receive calls as well. This is expensive and extremely inconvenient as well as restricting my income.. I would like to hear Tesco response to this ongoing issue and I think you will agree this is not acceptable. I am out of contract…..convince me I should remain with Tescomobile.

  @tescomobile hey it seems like the network is not recognizing numbers in my phone when they call and is splitting off the first 3 digits of the phone number and saying it is a foreign caller when it isn't. Why is this happening?

  @nookiehider @tescomobile It's honestly ridiculous for the UK to be so poor in such a critical infrastructure nowadays. Rest of the world are MILES ahead of us.

  @tescomobile is there an issue with the app ? I am only getting a white screen and have tried offloaded and reloading the app but issue remains

  @tescomobile Hello unless I make a call via WhatsApp my phone is unusable due to breaking up/poor network. I have been with Tesco many years and always lived in the HU8 area. Is there a network problem? Thanks

  Called @tescomobile to port my number from different network after signing contract, every day I’ve called customer service. Nobody have a clue why my mobile number is still not active. Today I found out, all Tesco mobile customer service offices are in South Africa! We pay UK prices and all customer care services are moved to South Africa!!! Why British offices are not operating? Paying UK prices and getting services from Africa… That’s absolute madness!
