    The MSE article https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/mobiles/cheap-sim-only-contracts/#high  mentions an £18 unlimited 12 month deal with 3. The link goes nowhere for me, and on their page http://www.three.co.uk/Store/SIM/Plans_for_phones the nearest deal is 100Gb for £18 but a 24 month contract. Has the deal MSE refers to disappeared?
    100 Gb - that's fast!

    I've just used the MSE blagged Lebara £5/2GB/unltd UK/100 mins to a list of countries deal. Ported from Three because their great list of roaming destinations isn't a lot of use atm. Rolling monthly with Lebara means it'll be easy to port again later.

    Best I could get from 3 was an £8/month unltd minutes/texts, 12GB and unlimited streaming on Netflix and Spotify. Pretty good but will only offer on a 12 month contract and was looking for flexibility of a rolling 30 day: they wouldn't budge. I'm a long term customer. Considering switching to Plusnet for the flexibility (I don't use all that data or minutes!) - but do value the roaming (in normal times...)
  • Just managed to get from Three yesterday: unlimited data, minutes and texts for £16 for 12 months and 12Gb data, unlimited texts and minutes for £8 for 12 months. 
  • The 3 unlimited MSE 'blag' £16 link doesn't seem to work.. once landing on the 3 basket page it says "Nothing has been selected" 
    Has this been reneged on by Three as the expiry date was for the 4th Oct?

    Just tried using another browser (with a cleared cache/cookies) and it worked after I gave them my inside leg measurements ;)
    Thank you!

    LEBARA.  Got the SIM, activated via 5588, then discovered no option for the £5 pcm deal - (Press 1 for £10, etc).
    Going online the £5 deal is there but the Promo code (FREESIM) doesn't work.
    Alarm bells ringing.  I'm sticking to Plusnet for now

    Go to the website. Do buy now on the £5 - don't need a code - choose existing SIM (i.e. no need to order one).

    And it's £4.95/month via uSwitch. Plus unlimited texts.
    They credited me with £10 for porting in a number too.
  • Am on three net work, my 12 month contract ended in April, have been rolling on since then. Got email to say I’m out of contract so they will move me to a new 30 day contact if they don’t hear from me, which they show as £2.50 more. Phoned them and offered me 12 maths for £18, which on web site is available to all. Can they move me from my rolling on, I have Netflix  not out of my data included, and I think they are trying to get customers off the contacts as they have stopped “go bing”
