Poor Internet Service in contrast to what was promised

patrickquaye
Fledgling

I got my home broadband hub today from Three, and I am extremely disappointed with the quality of service provided, especially after being assured of top-tier internet performance. Even though the device shows 5G connected, the connection is highly unreliable, frequently dropping within 20 minutes of use. Additionally, websites take an unreasonably long time to load, often syncing for several minutes before they open. This has made it difficult to accomplish even basic online tasks. Given this experience, I am already considering returning the equipment. I plan to contact your office tomorrow to arrange a return. However, I would appreciate it if you could provide an immediate resolution or clarify the return process to expedite matters.

Hello @patrickquaye,

Welcome to the Three Community. 

It's a shame to hear you've not had a great experience with your new Home Broadband, and I understand it's frustrating.

Please connect with our Home Broadband team during Business hours and we'll run some troubleshooting with you to see if the performance can be improved. 

Otherwise, you'll be able to cancel within 30 days and the team will help with the arrangement of this.

Thanks,
Michael

...... it could be construed as 'mis-selling'. My next action is to compare my ACTUAL upload and download speeds, versus promised or Three's quoted levels!

Before you switched did you bother to check on their NETWORK COVERAGE page for your postcode?
