British mobile network Three is having data issues this morning, cutting its subscribers off from the internet.
Despite having no access to the web, frustrated users still managed to tweet about how annoyed they were to be kicked offline:
This AM @ThreeUK rolled out their new 0G internet to a few thousand London customers. Thankfully the full roll-out isn't for a few months.

I wish @ThreeUK would spend less time tweeting picture of cats and more time fixing our internet. #three #3g

The firm did not provide any detail about what the actual problem is or how many of its customers are being affected. ®
