Just so you're all aware Three UK 3G network has gone down.

Wow .. that's pretty huge. It'll be very expensive for them if they don't get it back up and running again quickly.

Mine is fine in the Glasgow area also, obviously not a "global outage".

Wow, I knew 3's coverage was good, I didn't know they had global coverage now.

Calls seem to work for me but I'm using a signal box

Mine has been fine all day. Apart from op mooned seems to have gone down. Sure it wasn't your phone or mast near you.

This global outage seems very localised!

That's just a standard message they play on the CS service line.

Doesn't mean everyone is affected.

There is no nationwide outage.

Fine here too.

Jack_Wilson2 - if you knew there was an outage, why on earth did you clog up their already busy phone lines?

I asked a few 3 users in Glasgow today when I read this thread and none seemed to suffer any disruption.

There was no message posted on the IVR system.

This kinda proves it did go down ;-

There's being so many reports.

Also since EE has had problems it looks like a MBNL outage ;-

That's not a "global outage".

Also every network has these spikes every once in a while. Look at Vodafone's page and it shoots up every day pretty much.

We all know that Vodafones overall network is nothing compared to Three UK and EE. It's like comparing a bicycle to a super car.

That's not my point. And Vodafone's network isn't crap either.

What I'm trying to say is a spike in down detector doesn't mean there is a nationwide outage.

Don't be ridiculous...... yeah a network serving 19 million is a 'bicycle' and one serving 8 million is a 'super car'. For how long do you think that situation would last? Get real!
