Free included texts on 3
Just interested. Are the free texts with every top-up on 3 for national use only or can they be used to text say the USA for free? There doesn't seem to be info on what they can be used for on the website.
I switched to 3 over a week ago and have had no trouble what so ever, infact I haven't spent any credit yet... with Vodafone my credit didn't last a week. I'm loving the free included 150MB Data allowance and the free MSN... not used skype yet and not sure I will. With Vodafone data was 50p a day and you only got 25MB the tight fisted *replace with chosen profanity here*. Calls on Vodafone seemed really expensive too, a call of a few minutes seemed to eat a large chunk of a £10 top-up. |

Well basically heres how it works:
You top up by £10: 300 free texts You top up by £15: 600 free texts You top up by £20: Unlimited texts These free texts can be sent to all UK networks only. No matter how much you top up you get: Free Voicemail Free 300 3 to 3 minutes Free Skype Free internet on your phone 20p per minute calls to other UK networks 15p per minute calls to 08 numbers All your Rewards last for 90 days unlike any other network! When you first get the sim card, you will automatically be on the Flat12 plan which offers calls to all UK mobiles and landlines for 12p per minute,free voicemail and free skype plus you can stretch your top up with a stretch which offers mix and match minutes and texts. To move onto the 3pay tariff that gives Free texts and internet on your phone, dial 444 and listen to the options. For great value on international calls you can purchase an add on called International Saver, it costs £15 per month and offers unlimited calls to international landlines and mobiles to popular destinations like USA and Canada and European countries. Alternatively you can call other 3 mobiles and non-UK landlines and mobiles through Skype. Hope that helps! |

I checked my balance information through 4444 and it said you catualy get 5000 free 3 to 3 voice minutes but there is a fair use policy notice under it on my my3 page which I do agree with.
The national free text allowance only could be extended IMO they could deduct two texts from the allowance for every international text. Can a member of staff please merge this topic with the other one titled the same. Sorry to end up with 2 topics of the same. Thank you! |
