I have been a customer with 3 for about 5 years now. However in the past month or so the signal at home has deteriorated. My daughters boyfriend has also experienced a problem and 3 gave him 2 weeks rental free as they said there was work in our area.
So I called yesterday as the internet and phone signal seems to get worse by the day. The called back about 30 minutes ago and after a lot of discussion they offered me an early release from my contract or to be allowed to reduce my plan. They supposedly have been working to improve the network in our area but it is much worse.
Anyway they said I can keep my IPhone so I am seriously thinking of taking the cancellation offer and moving to a new network.
Any ideas anyone for good IPhone offers at the moment.

    First thing is check the signal strengths in your area.
    You don't want to take out another contract and find yourself having the same problems... ^_~

    I use this site to compare - there are a few redemption cashback offers and things for o2 sims - depends if you want to bother with the cashback elements

    I am thinking of taking an o2 aim only pay as you go deal to start with. However I can't seem to see iPhone sims mentioned and am not sure I would be able to keep my number.

    I eventually chose an o2 30 day contract and got 1200 minutes, unlimited Text, unlimited o2 to o2 minutes and 750 mb data for £30.64 per month and £25.00 Quidco cashaback that has tracked. O2 were a little slow in porting my number across but it happened last monday with no problems.
    So now I have my free IPhone on a 30 day contract and have escaped from Three and am not tied into a contract. Hoorah!!!
