hi guys just had a call from 3.

Basically offering me an instant£150.00 credit, new contract @£25.00 (with the credit though it means the first 6 months free).

However the tariff offered would mean a drop of 100mins and a drop of 100 text. ( I can gab all day!!) from 400 to 300. The rest stays the same as my current tariff i.e.25 video, 25 mms and £5 downloads

Oh and a new handset nokia 6500 which i am not keen on as it is a slide. I quite like the k850i but to get that I would have to tie down to a 18 month contract @ £23 per month (£150. credit still stands) and this will give me mix n match 500. (but no £5.00 downloads)

wat du ya thinks. Shes phoning me back tomorrow.

  • Thats not that good. If you look on Three's website, its comparable to one of the mix and match packages. Also do you really want an 18 month contract?

    I've asked for my sim to be converted to Pay as you go and awaiting calls from Three, apparently they offer better deals in the last week of your contract. Do check out the other Three retentions thread.
