Flexibility that lets you pay only for what you use without the need to convert your credit.Full story here: http://www.threemediacentre.co.uk/Press-Releases/793/THREE-GOES-BACK-TO-BASICS-ON-PAY-AS-YOU-GO-LAUNCHES-GAME-CHANGING-OFFER Title: Re: 3 launch new cheap payg game changing tariff Post by: pharmaa on July 02, 2013, 09:33:25 AM A very clear pricing structure there.
Someone at 3 has been watching too much of 3-2-1. Title: Re: 3 launch new cheap payg game changing tariff Post by: mobileman on July 02, 2013, 10:37:10 AM I have to agree that the pricing structure looks simple, but one should be aware that it is a 'sprat to catch a mackerel'. :o It's perfectly fine is you want to make just a few calls or texts, or even to use a little data, but if your requirements grow bigger than that, beware! ::) For instance, you will only get 500 MB (http://support.three.co.uk/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBISAPI.DLL?Command=New,Kb=Mobile,Ts=Mobile,T=Article,varset_cat=payasyougo,varset_subcat=4124,Case=obj(4101)) of data for a £5 Add On using this tariff, whereas you get 2 GB (http://support.three.co.uk/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBISAPI.DLL?Command=New,Kb=Mobile,Ts=Mobile,T=Article,varset_cat=payasyougo,varset_subcat=4124,Case=obj(4100)) for £5 if you have an earlier tariff like 3Pay. ??? (2 GB for £5 also used to be available on the Flat 12 (http://support.three.co.uk/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBISAPI.DLL?Command=New,Kb=Mobile,Ts=Mobile,T=Article,varset_cat=payasyougo,varset_subcat=4124,Case=obj(4099)) tariff, but seems to have disappeared now.) :'( Title: Re: 3 launch new cheap payg game changing tariff Post by: seanjoe on July 02, 2013, 06:47:02 PM This is a really great tariff for a user like me. I have been on giffgaff for a while and the only reason i'm staying is because i was there from the very start with them, so good "status".
But this tariff is really brialliant - furthermore, there is no expiry for your credit, once you top up, you can go away for a year and come back, and your credit will still be there for use. I'm starting to think whether to jump ship...giffgaff has just been too slow to adapt; they were good when they started, but now, as time goes on, the other networks are upping the ante. Title: Re: 3 launch new cheap payg game changing tariff Post by: BJ on July 23, 2013, 04:56:05 AM I notice that http://text2topup.com/uk/call_throughs_three/ offer a short code for 3 users which means you can get UK Landline Calls down to 2p a minute.

Giffgaff is good for a certain user profile, but they have too many problems and thats why I stopped using them after 18 months with them earlier this year. Plus theyre slow to adapt. Theres plenty of other better networks/tarriffs out there. |
