Update 22/05/2024
Hi everyone,
We're sorry for any disruption and inconvenience this issue has been causing over the past few days. Our team have been working hard on this, and the underlying issue should now be resolved.
For anyone who has been charged from top up credit when they had a pack or add on which would have otherwise covered the usage, the credit used should be restored automatically.
If you're still experiencing any difficulties using your service, please test if rebooting your phone restores normal services.
If the issues are still persisting, please let us know what you're experiencing in the replies, For example whether there's an issue with calls, texts, and/or data, and any error messages that you're seeing.
Hi everyone,
We've been receiving reports of some PAYG customers being unable to make calls or send texts since yesterday. We're working to resolve this as soon as possible, and will provide updates on this thread. We'll move all related posts to this thread in order to keep things tidy, and so everyone can easily find any updates. Please refrain from creating multiple threads about this issue in the meantime.
Thanks,
Jonathan

That's very strange.
It's difficult to determine what caused that, or what the solution would be. This is a forum for users to discuss their experiences and share knowledge, there's no one with account access here.
I'd recommend reaching out to the team on Chat where they do have access to the account and can look into the issue you've described.
Pete.

I'm still only able to use data when roaming... Calls and texts can't be made (although I can receive). It works in UK though... Any idea why?

Hey @joben,
Hmm, that is odd. Could you share what country you were visiting when this issue occurred?
Did you have an active Data Pack on your account when you travelled?
Thanks,
Kate

I have recently bought a Three PAYG SIM and topped up £10.
I can receive/send texts but can only receive calls not make them.
I have tried the SIM in another phone and same thing.
Any ideas if this is part of the same problem?

I can't make calls but can use data. I've spent over 4 hours in chats and calls to Threes customer service and technical support without resolution. I'm payg with an auto renewal data pack. I have been sent round in circles, checking network connection etc when on the very first chat I had been given a 2 quid credit. which let me make calls. And finally I learn here this problem is widespread and known to the company. Such poor customer service. But how can I resolve the problem? Everytime I contact Three I have to begin at the beginning and jump through all the scripted hoops they throw at me. How can I get help??
