Three are the "what cellphone Network of the year" for 2005. So a lot of people obviously disagree. You can check out coverage in your area via their website

There are many things I like about three. Particually the ability to check my remaining minutes etc online using their browser. This is normally very well maintained and is updated regularly. On orange i have to dial 150 to find out this information, worse stlil on my tarrif I'm charged for this or it comes out of my free minutes.
Worse still again, it's updated every 24 hours and rarely works.
Although a little on the bulky side most of the three phones are top class. After having a threeg phone I found it hard to use the older 2g phones.0 -

I did this offer a couple of days ago and got the £15 cashback from linemypocket in my account even before the phone arrived. I'm definitely not going back to greasypalm!0

the problem with 3 is they do not offer real GPRS only their "3" content...this makes the phone impossible for any internet based applications and no Instant Messenger clients work. (something I rate above being able to text!!!)
I found 3's service ok and got coverage most places I took it (although mainly reverting to 2g), although everytime a train went by my house it dropped my phone call! However, you get so many minutes so cheaply that this is not a huge issue...
I only lasted 9 months of my 12 month contract before taking a contract with a different company to get GPRS back!:hello: TTC since 11/090 -
I have just ordered mine and they have price matched me with https://www.mobileshop.com
who were offering the same deal for £1-99 for 12 months talk and text 600 . I'm not sure what 3 is like but for that price they're worth using just for the free minutes and texts as a second phone .0 -
Anyone know if this phone can be unlocked easily? i.e. using codes?0
