    My first one took a bit of time the next 2 were straight forward(other than standing in the street to get signal).

    Between 3 phones we now have 1GB/ month free and can share with hotspot if one runs out.

    @getmore4less surely 3 SIMs would be 600MB (0.6GB approx)?  Now all you need is a usable signal.
    Certain OTT members have caused me to add this disclaimer: all advice given is free of charge & as such should be taken to be IIRC (as I don't spend hours researching all answers :eek: )!

    3 phones they have 2 sim slots each .

    The problem is with signal is in the house where I have wifi anyway.

    Most of the places we go where the data is needed/used we get a 3 signal. the RWG(EE)  is one back up and O2 1p/MB as another backup.

    Thinking of getting another RWG for our other main phone.

    @getmore4less are you using 2 data reward SIMs in one phone?  I like it, even if it is extreme.

    I think Motorola did a tri-SIM phone!

    I treated myself after a year with a broken screen old phone works and a handy backup with 2 data reward(make it a hotspot) or for when I don't want to take the new one out.

    Anybody having trouble completing registration for the 200mb free?
       I can get to the registration page Ok,  but, after entering my details, when I go to complete the registration process I get
    taken to a page saying 'Sorry we had problem, please try later'....!?!

    Ditto, exactly this. Been trying for last couple of days. Think I've done everything as per the first SIM I set up six months ago which is working fine.

    Had same issue and ended up calling 3.
    They 'are aware of a technical issue' and credited me some data for the next month.

    Do you have to keep trying to register for ongoing data or have Three completed this for you?

    It wasn't actually made clear on the call, and the data didn't appear until a few minutes afterwards.

    As the current data doesn't expire until next month, I have a few weeks to retry, and not sure if it wil automatically renew at 250MB.
