    ROFLMAO - I love the bit about 3 having a stolen goods dodge going on the side!
    Seriously tho - I wouldnt touch three with a bargepole - had one of their phones a while ago, and aside from the fact that the reception was complete poo, and seemed to only work if I did slightly esoteric things like stand at the end of my garden on one leg on a wednesday wearing a daffodil, their customer service was dreadful - they put a "free" football service on my phone (I hate football) and when I tried to take it off again told me it would take three (chargeable) months. Eventually spoke to my dealer and told them I worked for a large law firm, and he got the contract cancelled for me. Im now back with t-mobile - a bit retro, but they do what they say on the tin!
  • OMG
    So a moby you ordered
    Yesterday
    Didn't arrive today ?
    Is it really
    Such a catastrophe
    To be without
    A new moby
    For two days ?
    How did
    Your Grandparents
    Ever survive ?

    Incase you hadn't noticed Zappster - this is the 'Consumer Vent Board'

    Computer Woman is unhappy with the service that 3 have provided and is using this board to air her views. Why do you have a problem with that? :rolleyes2

    the point was,
    it was ordered on wednesday on next day delivery
    then they implied I'd already got it,
    which I haven't
    so no mobile no new contract
    thats the point,
    why should I be stuck in a 12 months contract with no new mobile
    cw



    Pls be nice to all MSer's
    There's no such thing as a stupid question, and even if you disagree courtesy helps.
    Tomorrow never come's as today is yesterday and tomorrow is today:confused:

    Some people are never satisfied. You say you are going to shout at the delivery driver, how in any way could it be his fault?

    If he hasnt got the parcel on the van in the first place, what can he do?

    I ordered a PS3 from amazon ten minutes ago. It STILL hasnt turned up. Those lazy, incompetent idiots :rolleyes:
    and the point of this is,
    consignment number says parcel is on van and will be delivered today friday,
    then they changed it to say they had called and left a card which was a blatent lie,
    how would you like it if loads of people kept saying yes it'll be here today then it doesn't show,
    would you think that it would just turn up sometime,
    or would you think
    have they lost it,
    have they delivered it somewhere else,
    has someone else got it,
    then to be told that they tried to deliver but you were not in,
    bullsh@t,
    cw

    where I live on the north east coast, the reception for 3 is very good,
    never had a problem with it,
    and up-until now I have not had a problem with 3,
    apart from the one time when I got a large bill for a lost phone,
    but they didn't persue it,
    I used to use CPW (talktalk) for pay as you go phones,
    which were always £150 plus whatever you put on it, for the duration of the phones life,
    I have had contract phones from 3 now for 3 years this being the 3rd up-grade.
    first 1 on 12 month contract
    second 1 on 18 month contract
    this 1 on 12 month contract
    so 2 1/2 years this being the start of the next 12 month contract,
    and been quite happy,
    but I must admit I must have had them sweating over the past few days
    as they have never rang us so much,
    but my point about this is
    it is a next day delivery,
    and now I am in my 3rd day of waiting for the phone,
    so its not next day,
    and they implied that I had signed for the phone on thursday,
    to which I had to get @rsey with them,
    as I had not,
    when you get your new phone its like getting a new toy,
    but they have taken all the joy out of it,

    signed for means signed for
    not still in the back of a van,

    Why does it cost more to phone Three mobiles on most tariffs than what it does to other mobile networks? I've never liked Three for this reason.

    got an email from parcel line
    We were concerned to learn from your contact with us that you are unhappy with our service. I attempted to ring you today but there was no answer. The driver attempted delivery to the address of:
    xx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx
    xxxxxxx
    xxxxxxx
    This would be reattempted on Monday 16th April. I have passed your mobile number to the driver and advised that previously you never received a calling card and he may have gone to the wrong address.
    We thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and apologise for the inconvenience and frustration caused.
    they did not ring either:
    total waste of time
    lets see if they turn up tomorrow,
    cw
