All Three One Plans to be cancelled from today

Spleen Sauce · 6 Apr 2016 at 13:03

Finally go through to three cancellations. They've offered unlimited mins and texts, 30gb of data for £20/pm for 12 months.

Tempted by EE's offer of unlimited calls/texts and 16gb data for £16.75/pm for 12 months though.

Choices.

I'm still on the same plan and haven't had any letters yet much to my surprise.
Just checked my bill and it is as follows.

Ultimate Internet SIM 200 1 month
14 March to 13 April 2016 £12.90

Where is it for £16.75? I see that for £20....

The £15 Data pack (pay as you go) give you 4GB might be worth a look for my as that would be enough for me. Does anyone know are the PAYG sims gimped in anyway compared to the monthly ones?

Thats what I'm on, got my letter yesterday.

EDIT: Just off the phone with 3, offered 4GB, 12 months for £14 (its £21 on their site) Thats tempting, but the network has been crap around here of late.... :|

Ordered it as a new customer and the sim arrived today. Got 7 days to decide whether to keep it or not.

ive taken 3 up on their £13pm deal with unlimited minutes/texts and 4GB data, on a monthly contract. Ill be moving soon and if my reception is awful i will jump ship. Im saving a couple of quid a month on what i am paying and i consistently use less than 1GB per month, only went upto 2GB in month only in the last year. I cant complain and if i go to feel at home countries i still have a reasonable buffer of data to use for sat nav etc.

cause that's not the one plan...?

I got the letter last month and they're increasing my tariff price...

A bit gutted, but I'm sticking with it for the time being - the best part of Three is being able to use my tariff abroad no extra charge. Does EE do anything similar?

Only 3 as far as I know.

Having been on the sim only One Plan deal at £15 pm, i never go above 2GB data. I do use sometimes 600 minutes per month.

They are offering me 4GB data and unlimited minutes/texts for £13 pm, on a one month contract.

Not sure whether to take it or not. O2 offer the same for £19pm

Also got offered this at £12 for 12months. They obviously want people off their data plans.

All old tariffs are changing, not just the one plans.

I've not seen anything to suggest they do, however I believe the EU roaming charges are abolished from mid next year.

Hmm that is interesting! I hope so, that's the way it should be in my opinion!

Already above..

FerretBoy · 7 Apr 2016 at 08:25

EE have 16GB for £19.99 but if you get through mobilephonesdirect you get £96 cashback (a some hassle) and £10 top cash back. So works out £11.16 a month for 12 months. Not had my letter yet but tempted to go anyhow.

Got my letter today on £12.90 sim 200 its gone up to £20 but they given me a £3 monthly discount so £17 a month not to bad.

I really like Three but mostly because the feel at home and I travel abroad I dont think any other operators offer equal service?

Edit: My bad its £20 a month now from £23

Crap :/ Guess mine will be on the way then. Got zero issues with 3 tbh and they're fast as hell over there. Guess I'll see what sort of deal I can secure.

But from the page, it sounds like it could shoot back up in price after the first year?

If I have the wrong end of the stick, I'll go on that plan. Currently on the old SIM 600 plan. (600 minutes, 3000 texts, all you can eat data, £15 a month)

Got my letter the other day and was a bit miffed!

Seems EE have decided to go back on honouring the price, they sent me a letter this morning stating I'll be paying £20 per month and not £16.50. So cancelled in the cooling off period and took up Three's 30gb, unlimited calls and sms for £20 per month. Seemed like the obvious choice.

Still says £16.49 on the site - why did they change it to £20? Did the say in the letter..? Seems pointless advertising a promotional offer if they won't actually let you have it... Or did it all start as a pricing error?

I also cannot see a 30GB plan with unlimited calls and texts on Three's site for £20 a month? Closest I can see for £20 a month is 200 minutes, all you can eat texts, and 30GB data.

I may just ask three to transfer me onto that plan, to save having to change my number and whatnot...

EE spotted that I wasn't an existing customer that was taking out an extra line, so even though it all went through someone is clearly paying attention there.

Three will only offer this deal to customers who have been with them 4+ years (apparently), I argued to try and get unlimited data but they wouldn't budge.
