mobile phones - anyone use 3? (the network, that is.)


Recommended Posts

Been with 3 for about 5 odd years and they are fine. Get better or more reception from them than my husband's vodaphone! Have always found their customer service really good too!! They have even changed to a different plan half way through my contract which I think is pretty decent of them. Also they are still cheaper than everyone else me thinks!! I pay ?25.00 for 750 texts and 200 minutes talk time a month.

I've been on 3 for a year or so with no probs. Downloading from 3 music store is easy..if you are bothered about that. Have used the phone abroad too...I've never had to bother with customer services...If you have found a good deal, go for it. You can check your usage, time left etc etc easily.

I've been with them for about three years, and they've generally been pretty good. Signal coverage is consistently sound, and their price packages are excellent. I've had a few dealings with customer services which have been reasonable but nothing to write home about. The main call centre is in India, although rumour has it that there is another one in Scotland that they use when things get particularly technical....

Thanks all,


I ended up staying with Orange in the end. Free new phone (sony ericcson k800i), 400 anytime xnet mins and 1100 texts all for ?20 per month. But if I hadn't threatened to go to 3 I doubt I'd have done as well.


Will still consider them when this new contract's up though.

Have to say I'm happy with t-mobile flext 35.


I was ready to leave t-mobile as my last contract was costing me a fortune (?100 a month!!!!!!). But I use my phone loads, and with this flext 35, it's the equlivilent of putting ?180 on a pay as you go phone for ?35 a month... For an extra ?7.50 you get unlimited web&walk which is really really handy!


Best thing is there's no set amount of minutes/texts, you use your "credit" how you see fit...


I feel like a salesman for t-mobile now :-S It's the best price plan I've had though.

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
