Three PAYG SIM no longer free?

  • I had an interesting conversation with someone of the Three customer service, as my brickphone suddenly stopped showing my 3 registration, and instead shows "deactivated". Also text messages to my 3 number still go through and open once, but if I go back to my messages they do not show. When talking to Mr Customer Service he said, yes unless I buy a data package that will be the status - how is that even legal? So I own a brickphone Nokia 110, which does not really do any data, and I just need it for phone/text messages, and cannot use it for calling or sending texts without lumping in some money every month for a £$%£*%$ data package I cannot even use??? Has anyone else this issue, and / or logged it with Ofcom? 
    What plan were you on before it stopped working? Standard PAYG?

    You might be able to add £5 cash credit online/MyThree app.
