I’ve been with Three for nearly three years, and am considering changing to another network when my SIM only minimum term expires in July.
I use about 3.25 GB of mobile data, 150 minutes and 50 SMS per month. I also holiday abroad for about a week each year, usually in a 'Feel At Home' country. Currently I’m paying £17/month for 200 any network minutes, 2,000 Three-to-Three minutes and AYCE data and texts.
The original reason for the change was simply resilience (OH is also on Three and we don’t have a landline) - I have no major issues with Three. If I do change, though, I want the same or better 3G/4G coverage and speeds.
I’m leaning towards EE because I see and hear everywhere that their 4G speeds are way superior to Three’s, as well as their 4G coverage. I was going to hang on and see what benefits the Three take-over of O2 would bring, but it now doesn’t look like that is going to happen.
The only thing that is stopping me is the £5/month more I’ll have to pay (the EE 4GB tariff is £21.99/month) – the experience would have to be dramatically superior to warrant a 29% increase in outlay!
Anyone got any thoughts? TIA!
