    That's if 3UK last that much longer.

    That's some interesting info - thanks.

    With the amount of discounting going on, it certainly sounds like they're on the ropes at the very least.

    Anyway, my 3 number was ported to Orange today so i'm not bothered :)

    Anyone else getting any/numerous sales calls ?

    Yeah me

    Must have had about 10 calls from them now.

    all along the same lines "your our greastest customer as you have been with us over 4 years"

    And then i get there offer " Mix & Match 300 with a E71 for £9.79 (ish) a month"

    And then the best line ever "We are a special department in 3 nobody else can offer you this offer"

    I have been offered this every phone call and even call when i cancelled. And i told them this and they called me a lier.

    I am so glad i am leaving as the way i have been treated even after i had the text saying i could leave for free is unbelieveable.

    My phone swaps over to PAYG on the 14th, and will request my PAC then. So i am ready for the 19th June and iPhone here i come.

    Tesco deal seems great, data is poor @ £4 a MB so a no-go for me, whats good is the inclusion in the £300 cap of international calling this is the kind of plan that 3 brought to the Australian market and other's followed suit ;) Sure beats flexible plans from T-Mobile's Flext & 3's Mix n Match with the international inclusion...it even seems ROAMING costs are included in the £300 cap :eek:
