I contacted the Three team yesterday 3 times regarding how I can not send messages or make calls. This turned out to be because I apparently am suspended from my account and in order to remove suspension I must update my account information. Well here are the issues I am facing;
1. Yesterday when I checked my account settings to update them there was only the option to update my email and password , which doesn’t need updating. What I need to update is my name, address and date of birth.
2. I contacted again and I got told to send my identity and verification to their email. I do not wish to do that, I wish to be able to do so on my account.
3. I went to check again on the app but both on app and website when I try to sign in, It won’t sign me in because “there is issues that are not my fault” and I should “try again later”. It had been like this the past few days and I need it resolving quickly.
4. I tried to contact the team again through the live chat, but I was left waiting over 20 minutes and didn’t even receive help, even though they are supposed to be available 9 till 6 today.
I need this issue resolving quickly as I need to have access to sending messages and making calls. I purchased a 10 pound add on only a few days ago and it was working perfectly fine till yesterday. I have 30 days to use it and the past 2 days I haven’t had access to it, when I needed to have.
I have been a Three user for the past 4 years and I apart from regular website outages, I have had no issue with them. If this carries on then I would have to move elsewhere.
Does anyone have any help for me or at least know how long this construction will be going on for?
Thank you.

and not being willing to send your ID verification to them [as they requested] will further raise their suspicions.

I have checked the My3 app and web account and I can change my address but not the other details. I can understand why as this must be an anti-fraud measure. The details that 3 have are usually linked to your credit card, or bank card, that you used to open the account. If it was possible to change name, address and DOB then once a hacker has your details they could set up multiple accounts in your name.
If you have been with 3 for 4 years why do you need to change your name and DOB?
