NO WiFi signal or 5G in area

For 2 days now there has been zero WiFi connectivity on my 5G router or through my phone 4g/5g service. The website says there is an ongoing issue in the area. This isn’t acceptable for 2 days, no explanation of when it will be fixed, no customer service to expand further on the issue. It’s in Hedge End, Southampton. Anyone else have this issue or can shed some more light on the fix?

Just seen this thread (18th APRIL) - I've had so many calls with these clowns and they've never mentioned this!

One call was actually on March 17th, when I was promised that they expected it to be sorted within 7 days.

As a result of my most recent call, I decided to take out a separate contract to try an external hub, because for some reason they couldn't/wouldn't simply send me one. When I called sales, they put in my postcode and refused to sell me a home contract, because their database stated that they couldn't provide home broadband in this area!

But they've never told me, as an existing customer, that this is the case - neither have they mentioned this in any of the calls. Had I not contacted them, they'd have carried on, merrily taking my money each month.

At what point does this become fraud?

I did receive a couple of warnings over the past year or so that they'd be switching off 3G access, but there was never any mention that this would affect my 5G or even fallback 4G service.

Absolutely disgraceful, such a Mickey Mouse shower.

Yes , i have called three and they know there's a problem in the area but it's already been over 3 weeks now that we haven't got signal or Internet from three. And they don't know when it's gonna be fixed. We are stuck atm as we work from home .

The customer service has been a joke. I’ve ended up cancelling my subscription as there has been no fix date given. I have not paid any early cancellation fees either. I’d recommend doing the same, otherwise it could be weeks.

Ive been having the same issue. I work in hedge bed and have been unable to use my phone at work since Friday 14th March. According to the coverage map, there is no problems in the area. Im confused and frustrated!

Hey @Flow32 

Welcome to the Three Community Page. 

I'm sorry to hear that you are having these issues with the signal at your work address.

Based on the other interactions it does look like there was work being carried out on the local mast, but this should now have been completed. 

If this issue does persist, please pop over to chat with the Customer support team and they'll raise this for further investigation for you.

Just received an email that the mast will not be available from today, the replacement should be activated mid April!
