I have two active accounts for 3togo (back from 2003) that haven't been used for many years (and I can't find the sim cards anymore).

Does anyone know the price details for calls, data, texts, etc - and whether they have any free benefits - such as the free roaming that was announced recently ?

I will obviously need to get replacement sims, but wanted to know whether they were worth keeping or if I might as well cancel them.

Thanks in advance

    Holy crap! 3ToGo was discontinued back in October 2003!!!!! Surprised you still have it going.

    You might as well cancel them buddy.
    Whilst you don't pay anything per month for it, if you start using it today it's going to cost you a fortune. Three's 321 pay as you go is much more competitive now.

    I'm trying to remember but pretty sure 3toGo cost around 5p a min to Three mobiles, 10p a min to other mobiles/landlines, 10p per text and a ridiculous amount per mb.

    I thought it gave you all the benefits/promotions available to contract customers, but without a monthly charge ?

    If we were still in 2003 yeh. You got like free emails and like £10 worth of downloads from the Three store but that's not going to work today.

    Like I said mate, it's an old tariff that isn't competitive anymore and you're better off moving over to a new tariff or cancelling. Whilst it was an excellent tariff for it's time, it can easily be beaten today.

    I was meaning you can add £3/month for unlimited data - but no good to me as you can't use it for tethering (I don't think).

    Thanks for your comments. I might as well get them cancelled.

    Thanks

    I don't know. Maybe you can?

    Just ring up first and see what they say as Three will have all the full details. If you don't like it then cancel.

    Take a trip back to June 2003 and see the Three website in its former glory...

    No per MB charges that I can see, just refers to "content" and price bands.

    At that time were Three still operating their walled garden? So no general internet access you paid for what you did rather than how much data you used?
