Is 3 worth it?

123kid

Seen very good offers on e2save on mobiles on 3 network.

The 7600 @ 4.99 a month with 500 min and 100 texts looks great. whats their calls and text prices?

Any bad experiences? i live in Northern Ireland what is the coverage like?

Well, depends on what you want:

A good deal, then yes, its worth it. Moved to 3 this year, have 2 contracts and I actually quite enjoy seeing all my calls billed as inclusive. I can't be too sure of the reception in your area. However, I am sure someone on the board can help with that.

However, a word of warning also; their customer service is
not exactly the best either. If you feel that customer service is of paramount importance then maybe you should avoid them. I have personally not had any bad experiences with them although I have to admit I try not to call them too much. They take a lot of time on the phone and a few people I know have swore never to go back to 3 once their contracts are over. I know of someone who had a misfortune with their handset and 3 refused to offer him a replacement.

Kind of boils down to you and luck really.

i get regularly cutoff.
in particular when on the phone to customer services. four times last week for the same conversation.
in addidtion their cust services is really rubbish. most of their people dont seem to know what they are doing and just pass you to another dept. (it is very annoying because they pass on your profile to the next dept so you have to give all the details again.)

YES 3 are worth looking at. If you find the coverage is poor you have 14 days to cancel.

Where i live in south wales i have far better coverage with 3 than with orange.

No mobile network will work in all places, but ive had more problems with orange than 3. Most of my friends have moved from orange to 3.

The 3 contracts are simply superb value.
