quangobaud<p>The email reply from Three customer services "Proof" section (first picture), that prompted the first toot in this thread. </p><p>Context: Their reply is basically saying that I should use their AI to resolve the issue which is run by the same company (and so the same staff) that I'm complaining about. </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ThreeUK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThreeUK</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GamblingAddiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GamblingAddiction</span></a></p>

Al Sutton<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://awscommunity.social/@Ric" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Ric</span></a></span> You need to set up a tunnel. </p><p>I have a <a href="https://snapp.social/tags/ThreeUK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThreeUK</span></a> SIM, and their network seems to be IPv4 only, so there's a lot of folk who'd be blocked if you go IPv6 only on the consumer facing end.</p>
Michal Bryxí 🌱<p>Oh boy. So it turns out that <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/ThreeUK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThreeUK</span></a> deactivated my old phone number for some reason. The phone number that I kept on running on an old phone within UK, because I knew it would be deactivated after three months physically outside of UK.<br>The phone number that got exactly zero warning texts or something.<br>You know why I kept that number alive? Because effing 2FA in UK often times can't be used over "foreign" phone numbers.<br>Sigh, this will hurt to fix.</p>
