    the good thing is you dont have to topup anything to continue getting the free skype and msn messenger, but topup the £10 and you get the internet and texts free.

  • Thanks for the info, the 3 site mentions 2 payg tariffs one of which charges 20p per min for calling landlines and other networks the other 'flat12' charges 12p per minute. Both are quoted to come with the 'free stuff' (internet, texts etc) - does anyone know whether the Flat12 tariff is still actually available? I've tried the 'contact us' page on the 3 website but it appears to be down.

    TIA

    msun you only get 600 texts if you top up online for £10, you only get 25 texts if you top up £5.

    cwthomas Already with 3 Pay As You Go?
    If you joined us before June 2009 you'll either be on our Flat12 or WePay tariff. Don't forget to switch to our new 3Pay tariff if you want free 3-to-3 calls with every Top-up
