How to check Three's service status - is Three broadband down?
The Three app is a good tool for checking service status, but you can also see the network status its 4G or 5G network using the coverage checker page.
If it looks as if there’s a problem, there are a few things you should check before getting in touch with customer service.
First of all, make sure there are no obvious issues with your 5G or 4G Home Hub router. Reboot your devices and then the Hub. If the internet connection doesn’t spring back to life, the fault may be on Three’s side.
