Why Three?

Three Reasons to buy 3…

The 3 Mobile network offers three key benefits over and above other UK mobile networks:

1. Unrivalled value for money on the latest mobile phones
2. Innovative services based on 3G technology
3. No-nonsense price plans

Value for Money

Three have now become the market leader for offering high-value 3G mobile phone contracts at very reasonable prices.

Three tariffs start from as little as £12 per month, and all offer free internet plus a healthy allowance of anytime minutes and texts.

Simply put, no other network offers as good a range of phones on such low cost tariffs as the 3 network.

Innovation

The 3 network is the only dedicated 3G network in the UK. Essentially a 3G network is similar to a traditional network but has the added value of being able to support advanced services such as broadband on-the-go, mobile TV, video calls, free Internet calls (with Skype), MSN messaging and much, much more.

Because 3 are experts at 3G they have tailored all their phones and tariffs towards offering these advanced services. This means they often come at no extra and are highly accessible from your 3 phone.

Coverage and Reliability

3 have an industry leading 90% 3G coverage and an impressive 99.5% text and voice call coverage. For the 10% of the country where a 3G signal is not always available your 3 phone will default to the T-Mobile network with a 2G connection. This ensures that coverage is never a problem for a 3 customer. To check the signal in your area enter your address into the 3 Coverage Checker.

Tariffs

3 have three types of tariff; Internet Texter, Internet Talker and The One Plan.

The Internet Texter is ideal for most people, but especially those who prefer to text than call. You get a free 3 mobile phone and 5000 texts plus 500MB of mobile internet and a great anytime minute allowance.

The Internet Talker tariffs also come with 500MB of mobile internet, and the same number of anytime minutes as the Internet Texter - but as they come with less texts, they carry a cheaper price tag.

The One Plan is our "practically unlimited" tariff. It offers you incredible value if you're a very heavy user - with 2000 anytime minutes, 5000 texts and 1GB of mobile internet from only £25 per month.

Broadband on the go

Finally, 3 offer a cutting edge Mobile Broadband service. From just £7.50 a month you can access a broadband speed Internet connection (basically like a fast home connection) using a 3 USB Modem which comes as part of the package.

Like a 3 mobile phone, 3G broadband is bought as a monthly contract. The higher the value of a contract the more data you are allowed to download. Most users’ needs will be satisfied with the 5GB £15 a month package.
