Depends what you are looking for, minutes / texts, combination of both. If you have a contract at the moment why not haggle with your provider and see if you can get anything out of them for staying.

Three have some £15 deals. http://www.three.co.uk/personal/price_plans_/index.omp

T-Mobile have £5.00 off their contracts until the end of the month, but you need to go onto their site, decide the phone and price plan and let it work out some deals for you.

[want2know?]

It would depend on whether you'd want to keep your phone or not. The best options seem to be:

New phone:

T-mobile flex 20 (£34 credit allowance)- £15 per month (until 31/4- 18 month contact)

Three mobile-
(a)500 any minutes
OR: (b) 600 texts, 75 any minutes

Cost= £15 per month (until 31/4- 18month contract)


Orange Dolphin (75 mins, 200 texts)- £20 per month (18month contractO

Old Phone:

Virgin Mobile Sim card (300 texts+anytime network mins)- cost=£20 per month (£10 or less if virgin media customer)-no fixed contract

Of course you could always get a new phone and use the virgin mobile sim card if it works out better. I'd recommend t-mobile out of the pay monthly options.

Whats the 3 Coverage like nowadays?

[on the air]

Its better than it was, and they now use orange for roaming on the 2g network if there is no 3g coverage. Another offer to throw in the equation is £17.50 for 300 minutes, 1000 texts with a reconditioned phone. You have to dig about a bit to find it so link below.

3 have a 99.9 percent coverage now and they have some good offers to http://threestore.three.co.uk/offerd...3&tariffid=530

Best coverage I have ever had on any network even when it is on 2g. But.........as you will see from other threads, dealing with the non-UK call centre can be a bit of a nightmare, if it's not in the script, they have difficulty providing answers. I have heard you can be put through to their UK call centre but have never asked for that yet. My contract ends in a couple of months I am curious as to what they will offer to keep me. Also to downgrade your contract after six months costs £25 each time and you can only downgrade in £5 increments or to avoid the fee you have to agree to extend your contract for six months, this is part of the reason I am thinking about leaving them.

Hi

I took out a £15 contract with 3 for my son . he got the phone of his choice the LG U400


500 x network , anytime minutes

I thought it was going to be £15 plus vat , but the first bill arrived today and its £15 inclusive of vat

My wife as an existing customer recommended him and she got £30 credited to her account and he got the same credit on his account

If you need a recommendation drop me a line

you don't have to pay to downgrade any more they stopped that a month ago but you can only move 2 down but if you want to move from expensive to cheap there will be a £25 charge then you can

I guess with the PAYG option 3 pay you for each call you receive

Bit more complicated than that, just checked out their website and it depends on when you joined, full details here:

they won't let you downgrade to the £15 tariff as it is a promotional tariff
