General Comments

The LG U8110 is a amazing tool for the first few months Then the signal starts dropping. Three are the worst service providers I have ever known, if the phone has a problem the service centre is in India. You are charged national rate on a landine. After five minutes of security questions you try to explain the problem to a person thousands of miles away. Eventually phones are picked up and returned three days later not working. The LG phones all need reflashing, software replacement. After a few months 3 will not replace handsets once you are eight months into contract. They will try to sell you another. Lots of my friends are having problems with the LG. After the signal drops the phones starts turning itself of then they dont work at all. I received mine new in mid august it is now completely dead. 3 refuse to change it. last time it went for repair i, like many others got Three's standard letter saying the phone was beyond repair, but was not covered by the manafacturers 12 month guarantee as they felt it could have been dropped or moisture could have got into it. You then are asked to buy another phone. The amount of poeple that have received this letter when they are 8 or nine months into contract is amazing. In conclusion the LG is great for the first few months then it starts giong very wrong. You are hours without a signal, days without a phone. Last year I spent over 50 pounds ringing Three and being transferred to their call centre in India. Average wait to speak to someone is 10 mins another ten mins explaining problem. You get little or no support from three. If your phone breaks after 8 months + . You are left with nothing. LG need to improve the handsets, Three really need to improve or customers will leave in droves.
