Was looking to switch from giffgaff due to bad 4G performance, found ID Mobile that runs on the better Three network and is actually cheaper than what you get on giffgaff! This deal is the best value I could find if you don't call much.
Three has more 4G bands than O2, see details here:
For those who want to be with 3 themselves, you can force them down to either £11 or £12 (£12 for me) for unlimited txts, minutes and 4gb of data

Atrocious customer service, they owe me nearly £200 for overcharging, CPW Chief exec's office has been on the case for 3 weeks and still not sorted my refund.

How's 3 4g coverage?
This looks better than giffgaff right?

I have repeated mistake of going to Three twice for price reasons, and I regretted in both cases. The coverage for my case was pretty bad ... 4G coverage is also pretty limited. But where you get coverage their speed is OK.
I highly recommend EE (or BT who piggy back them) if you want decent 4G. Superb coverage and speed IMO. They're not cheap but you get what you pay for!

I admittedly live in London and spend most of my time between here, Oxford and more metropolitan parts of Essex, but in all three of those areas it's absolutely superb.
The customer service is the only vague grievance I have with Three.

Threes 4g is garbage, the download speed I get now is less than when I was on 3g with three. And the Signal drops out all over the place including my house which is in the middle of a major city. Not recommended.

Seems good. Why the cold votes?

Could be that it is a car phone warehouse vmo, not sure but I've voted hot on the price
Three has more bands than O2, which is why it will supposedly perform better given that you have coverage. Living in London I assume coverage is not going to be a problem

why did you manage to overpay by £200?

Did they overcharge you and take it out by direct debit ?.
If so call your bank and by the time you have explained it to them the money will be back in your account.
Orange 3 tmobile and o2 have over charged me.
one call to bank and refunded instantly.

I've recently moved to Three, currently getting 25Mbps download speed in a park. I'm happy enough.

Ha ha not hiding in the bushes watching ride films I hope.
I get a mix of speeds and must have a cell tower near my local tesco as when I am out walking the dog I get over 25 mbps which is not too shabby at all.

cpw. don't tell you that they have a 14 day refund if no signal and they don't always do a signal check for your property.
