    Cancelled my subscription within the 14 day timescale still continued for months to take money out of my account and sorting this out was a true nightmare. All phones were locked on strict settings and this took forever to get sorted. When asked to escalate things a speak to a manager I was told 3days and we might get back to you. Very very unhelpful. If you try to raise a complaint expect to get fobbed off and the process to be hindered and blocked by this company. I am still awaiting them to send me the legal complaint protacols, they haven't.. ombudsman next I think

    So, I decided to try a 3 mobile broadband. This is a nightmare. Believe me. Just avoid it. Even if you have a good speed, the ping and packet loss are insane. Sometimes my ping goes to 1500ms and the packet loss is always more than 5%. It’s impossible to play video games. And there is no chance you can stream. Unfortunately I have a 24 months contract, but right now I’m considering to cancel my contract and get a proper internet. Getting a 3 mobile broadband was the worst decision in my life. You pay for something you don’t actually have. This internet is extremely unstable. Don’t make my mistake. Get a proper internet even if it’s more expensive

    I went with 3 mobile (using a MiFi router) as I wasn't sure how long I would be at this address and the only other option seemed to be Satellite. Speeds have been incredibly poor - no more than 9mbps, but usually under 5 - since I have been here and often drops out. Customer service response is always the same as "status checker" on the internet - "we are working on masts in your area", which seems to be permanent, and in 18 months there has been no improvement. If it wasn't for the cancellation fee I would have changed months ago. The worst internet I have ever had - and I have lived in remote areas in Brazil with better service!

    Absolutely the worst connection since dial up. I have complained twice and of the 3 months I have paid for the have refunded 1 and never had a good connection.

    They have admitted it is over subscribed and or they are doing work in the area and upgrading.

    Initially they promise it would be fixed in Febuary now they are saying end of April.

    The broadband was overpriced, not very fast and quite often dropped out. But that's not my main beef with 3. When I opted for a cheaper, faster service with another provider, the agonising process of cancelling my account began. It involved several conversations, during one of which I was informed that I had to return the router etc within 5 days of receiving a prepaid envelope, or I would be fined £170. That in itself is bad enough, but I discovered I was also expected to return the 'gift' of a google speaker which was offered as an inducement to join in the first place. My understanding of the concept of 'gift' is that once given, it remains in ownership of the receiver. Not, as it seems to be in the case of 'gifts' from 3, something conditional and reversible. And what are they going to do with a second hand speaker? Land fill? It's a cheap, tawdry attitude on the part of 3, and it will put me off ever considering them again.

    The worst broband ever!! Try to call customer support and they need 20 minutes to pick the phone just to tell you that they are sorry but they can’t help you! the internet is not working for a week now but it seems like they don’t really care! 95% of the time the internet is not working!!! so shame that a company like then allow something like this to happen! shame!

    At first my mobile broadband was good. For weeks now it is pretty much non existent. I called 3 to ask why my mobile broadband connection was so incredibly slow. In the end of the call an agent at 3 told me they would investigate and call me back within 7 days. They never did call me back. I Still have a rubbish connection. Also it's is very hard to understand the people they have on the other end of the phone. Its all quite rubbish and I'm still left with a super slow connection. The live chat never seems to work either.

    We decided to try the 4g home hub as internet speeds and reliability are vital for my wife who works for the NHS from home three days a week. (The other days she works in the hospital). From the start the speeds were nothing like as advertised. Our old adsl connection were as fast (between 4 and 6 mbps) and the reliability of service was woeful. I (foolishly) persuaded her to stick with it to see what happened. What happened after 4 months of frustration and unreliability is that we cancelled the agreement subject to having to pay almost £350 for a service that was so pathetic that it is disgraceful that any company can be allowed to trade with such misleading and false claims. Presumably this is how they make their money. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COST. WE ARE LOSING £350… DON’T BE NEXT
