    They'd stuff up your credit rating & eventually send the bailiff's round!

    I've not really had a problem with 3 in the last 5 months since I got the phone...

    I think they're pretty good!! especially for the money!!!

    I'm glad you had a good experience, just dont drop your phone!!!!!

    They are very cheap, no doubt, last week I got my £40 credit so w00h000 but as far as service goes its a thums down from me.

    I'd go back to Orange or even o2 (and thats saying something) today if I could get out of my contract.

    c975 ... how can i kkeep track each month on how many minutes i've used ??? ... on all our other phones .. all nokisa .. you can go to "call dration .. reset timers ..." on the billing date each month ... reset to zero and then always just check the current reading on the handset ..

    but on this 975 motorola ??


    Dial 333 go through the menu.... you get minutes left and number of txt for the month.

    Firstly, must apologise - haven't read all 26 pages of posts so if i'm repeating anyone - big sorreee!

    Just wanted to let you all know (if you don't know already), my friend is with 3 and he has 500 mins xnetwork and 200 texts free each month - but if he goes over his free texts - they charge 83p per text!!!! So if you are a textaholic (like me) please think twice - the costs could be astronomical!

    I assume these are normal texts to the UK.

    The 3 website says that when you use up your allowance texts are charged as follows.

    To 3 Mobile 10p.
    To Other UK Mobiles 10p.
    To Uk Landlines 10p.

    Has your friend got his sums right,if he has, he should take it up with 3 Customer Service pronto.
