Three's "The One Plan" - A few questions if someone could help please?

Hi,

I am thinking about moving to Three's "The One Plan" and would be grateful if someone knowledgable on this, or has it, can answer a few questions please.

1. It says it is a 1 month rolling contract, but if you click on the Plan Details option, it says Contract Length - 12 months. Bit confused about that, could anyone elaborate on that please.

2. It is to go in an iPhone 4 (officially unlocked). Can I request a micro SIM? or will I need to cut down a regular SIM to fit?

3. As it is "All you can eat" data, I want to use it to tether to my iPad 2. Is this possible? Is it free to do this? Does anyone currently do this?

4. I have heard some horror stories about people never going with Three again (after they have managed to leave). Are there actually any happy Three customers out there :D

Thanks for the help,
Kevin.

    why not just get it from your local three store?
    -the contract length has been reduced to a rolling 1 month contract.
    -you can request a micro sim, either in store or online when ordering. i got a micro sim instore but a friend cut down a standard size sim with a sim cutter.
    -you can tether with the one plan.
    -i am with three and i love them, never had a problem, the customer services are in india but so what! they always help with any query you have and are as good if not better than any other customer services i have dealt with. give them a try i am confident you will be happy, you have nothing to lose with the rolling monthly contract.

    Mainly cos there's £53 cashback available via Quidco, which will pay for the first two month's useage.

    Thanks for all that. I think I will give them a try. Like you say, can't really hurt if it is simply a rolling 1 month contract. I was just a bit confused about the 12 month bit in the plan description, but sounds like they have forgotten to update that bit when they changed it to the 1 month rolling contract.

    Appreciated,
    Kevin.
