Three mobile problems: Official thread

Totteridge/Whetstone

A few users seem to have been having problems access Fabswingers on three mobile network despite having adult blocks lifted. This is a problem at three network, it is NOT a problem at Fab.

First step: Call three customer services on 333 and explain the problem.

Still no joy? Submit a complaint on the three website:

http://www.three.co.uk/Support/Contact_Us/Complaints_code

We'd be interested how you get on, feel free to add comment below.

As mentioned in other thread, if your handset allows it, change the APN three.co.uk to 3internet.

Googling this will tell you how to do it on your handset.

this worked for me until three get back to me.

Three could not fix this for me despite having adult website restrictions lifted. I have installed Opera web browser and it has cured the problem, I only had problems with safari

if you go through the planet 3 way

you will get blocked or not authorised

but, if you go onto the yahoo search engine on your phone - and type - fabswingers.com/login

it should let you do it and the login page for fab should come up

Using opera works if accessing Fabs on the handset.

However, if your are using the handset as a modem, or to tether your pc to, this doesn't work.

I'm awaiting an email reply from three about this.

"As mentioned in other thread, if your handset allows it, change the APN three.co.uk to 3internet."
Just to confirm that this works, but I have no idea how this might affect your billing, so at your own risk!!!!:

On my phone, so it should be similar depending on model,

Settings - Wireless and network - Mobile networks - Access Point Names - New APN

The following are the only fields I've set:

Name: 3Internet

APN: 3Internet

MCC: 234 (Default)

MNC: 20 (Default)

Authentication Type: None (Default)

APN Type: internet

All other fields are "Not set".

Best of luck!

"have been having the same problem for the last few days. Thanks to the guys who suggested downloading opera web browser which i have done but when i load it it's still blocking me.

Have you downloaded the correct Opera? There are 2:


"Opera Mini always uses Opera’s advanced server compression technology to compress web content before it gets to a device. The rendering engine is on Opera’s server.

Opera Mobile is a full Internet browser for mobile devices. The full web-rendering engine – Opera Presto – is run on the phone using the phones’ hardware to download and display webpages."

I think it is Opera Mini's "Opera’s advanced server compression technology" that gets round the restriction as you are accessing their site, not www.fabswingers.com!

"Hugely annoying. Why have they done this? "

I 'think' that its a back end change how they deal with adult sites and how they are filtered which has resulted in some (not all) people not getting access to some adult sites.

I have replied to their blog about the issue and have a moderator reply to me asking for account info so they can look into this. I have replied and await their further response, which will be sometime next week I expect. I will keep you informed.

The change to 3internet seems a common workaround listed on the 3g forums with no mention of billing issues.

I can log on but takes absolutely ages and loading any pages and on most occasions when I send messages it sends them at least twice.

When I first joined the Three network there was a filter on my browser that stopped me accessing Fab when using 3G. After one phone call to 333 this was resolved but I had to wait 4 hours.

Only a few days ago I extended my silver membership by text and to my surprise I could not access Fab after. It took three calls to 333 before it was finally resolved.

I believe if you are on pay as you go this is more of a problem than if you have a contact with Three. Just be persistent and you will finally get an operator who will resolve your problem.

i'm on three and never had any problems getting on to fab. i go through planet3 and fab is one of my faves. the only issue i have is the time it takes to change page and post things. i am on a contract so that may make a difference.

Mine was working for a while (on the three.co.uk APN) but as my home broadband has now gone off Im tethering to my Three phone and wont work, so had to swap APN's back to 3internet.

As far as I am aware, Three dongles use the 3internet APN so will be fine.

I am emailing Three back and forth just now. Ill repost when I get more news.

The problem can be solved instantly by downloading the opera mini web browser to your phone and access fabswingers through it instead of your standard browser. Even if you haven't lifted your adult restrictions, you can still access any adult content through opera mini. Hope this helps fabbers.

Possibly sounds like a cookie issue try checking your cookie settings on your mobile OR try another browser if you can download one e.g. operate mini

Somewhere near you?

Re 3 Dongles. If you take your dongle to a three store and verify your age they will unlock all adult sites for you. You can also do this over the phone by making a credit card payment of £1 which they recredit you.

Re tethering of 3 phones. Three "refuse" to unlock phones for adult content, after talking with one of their customer reps, they explained it is so that a child cant pick up your phone and access objectionable material.

I have had partial success tethering my phone and using the opera browser (with turbo mode active) I can log in to the site, browse and post in forum (this post) and send messages. The only thing I have been unsuccessful with is chat!!!

I am going to try using Firefox with the "tor" plugin and see if this proxy server software will give us a workaround for the whole site until 3 see sense. But I doubt they will.

Wish me luck

Pleased to report a 90% success. Unfortunately the tor button project has been shelved. But if you download the Tor browser bundle. It will let you bypass the tethered phone problem. even allowing you into chat. But so far I cant make webcams work.

The tor browser bundle is a tor client (anonymous proxy system) and an older version of firefox patched into a runable, portable file. Not a permanent fix but it will help in the mean time.

My girlfriend uses a Three 3 month/3gb data sim in her Samsung Omnia Windows 7 phone and she is unable to access Fab unless we use a proxy server. We have already rang Three about it, and they have told us that data sims are restricted, and they have no plans to remove it. In Nottingham Three has the best 3g coverage with O2 being the worst.

Had this problem on my iPhone on 3 for about a week. All other adult content was fine Inc Fab Flirts. Checked with 3, they said other users had this issue too and they were working to resolve it. This was Friday and I'm now sending this post on it, so fixed (for me, anyway).

How much fun it was spelling fabswingers.com phonetically to an Indian call centre. Lol

Got this at lunchtime today when I tried to log onto Fab, in fact even when I typed it into the search engine, it made no difference. Perhaps you can tell me what it means

'Network Error (gateway_error)

An error occurred attempting to communicate with an HTTP or SOCKS gateway.

The gateway may be temporarily unavailable, or there could be a network problem.

For assistance, contact your network support team'

Anyone care to translate?

"Seriously just ring them up and explain to them you can't get on certain websites, they will report your problem to the "technical team" who will then ring you back within 72 hours, they will resolve the problem!!

I had the same issue but one phone call and it was fixed, and don't worry about being embarrassed telling them what site you can't get on, as there in India anyway and struggle to understand you when you tell them your name, nevermind knowing what fabswingers is lol.......just ring them!!!!"

I had that, 72 hrs, if you check my comment where I said that to see when it was, I am still waiting but its sorted anyway, on Sunday, and that definitely wasnt 72 hrs

"if you go through the planet 3 way

you will get blocked or not authorised

but, if you go onto the yahoo search engine on your phone - and type - fabswingers.com/login

it should let you do it and the login page for fab should come up

This worked for me. Many thanks
