I've got round to setting up my dongle and have registered with my3, however it's not giving me the option to buy a 5 pound add-on; the only ones available are for texts or mobile broadband (at a tenner for 1 Gb :-( ) I've changed my registered mobile to be a phone to see if that helped ... it didn't.
Am I being thick here?
Thanks
Kevin
Sorry, there is a link........won't let me put link on but here is the address but you must be logged in to my3 already before clicking. This should give you the 5 pound option. Hope this helps. (put the http prefix thing on it first)

briefly reading costs, t seems the basic option doesnt give much bandwith at all.. maybe better offers about, taking into account costs of extra downloading?Long time away from MSE, been dealing real life stuff..

Hi, to all who are trying the 5 pound unlimited 3 mobile broadband, there is a problem.... I DID get the 5 pound unlimited but they have enforced the 1gb fair usage limit. Ah well.... worth a try. I did take the pi*s a little bit by downloading streaming films though
Hey there. Can somebody confirm how this works please...?
I have a 3 dongle and a 3 Pay as you Go SIM. I can only see on the website that any top up will give me 150kb of free Internet. That's a long way from 1gb! What am I doing wrong please...?0 -
For the pricing it states £10 gets a 1gb allowance for thirty days which enables you to surf the internet for 10 hours ?!
Does this mean £10 would only buy you ten hours surf time ?!?!
Im trying to decide between this and O2, the only thing going in o2 s favour is I can just pay by the week and use it for holiday surfing.Merry Christmas MSE!0 -
i could do 10 hours in a day! see myself having to top up much more than £10 a month to feed my habit!Long time away from MSE, been dealing real life stuff..

The software in the youtube does work. It reflashes it to a ZTE 626. You need to use the supplyed manager as it says in the Video not the supplied 3 one. I use a iphone o2 sim which has been workin fine for when i want to surf away from home0

What type of speeds are you getting with the o2 sim ? I tried the 3 sim and I was getting decent speeds, tried a o2 payg iphone (3G) sim and the speeds are much slower.0
