Three network 321

Can anyone help, I have read somewhere that you can top up with the 3 network on the 321 tariff with £5.00 if you do so online can anyone confirm if this is possible looking to join 3 on pay as you go just for data.
Thank you

    Shouldn't this be in the mobiles section ?
    Yeah you can top up £5 online, you also get 150mb of data each time you top up.

    I don't think this should be in the mobiles section I need to top up with data for my mifi, but thanks for answering the question.
  • I thought the 321 terms and conditions only allowed use in phones, not tablet, mifi or dongles.

    Seems i found an answer . According to 3 cs you buy a £10 top up witch lasts for 30 days at a time . 321 is for phones only mores the pity as i only use the mifi now and again

    You can of course buy a cheap android phone, and effectively use it as a mifi. However I think tethering is also against the terms and conditions.

    This is weird, in the past I found that tethering to my iPhone on the Three 321 tariff was instantly blocked. Today however the hotspot suddenly works using Safari on the iPad and connected via Bluetooth to tether to the iPhone.

    Elsewhere I read rumours that new 3 SIMs (mine is recent) have firmware built in to block tethering even more instantly.

    Well it works now... but cannot be relied upon I suppose.
