Stupid question but someone might know the answer. If I moved to an EU country for 6 months or 1 year, and had this deal, I could use it without a problem abroad right??? Or does the new roaming thing have a limit?

EE impose a European zone data roaming limit of 15GB per 30day period, and after 120 consecutive days abroad EE will start the 14day disconnection procedure.

Free roaming is meant for holidaying/relatively short period of time abroad. If you are going to another country for more than 2 weeks I don't think you will get charged extra but most probably data service will be severely limited. I would recommend getting cheap data sim from a local retailer.

Good luck moving to another country, in case you hadn't heard... us Brits are being chucked out of Europe, and burning our bridges as we go!!!

After 2-3 months your data will either be chopped or cut off, plus just because you have 30gb per month in UK you may have only 12gb in EU, you need to check t&cs. This is so it is not abused abroad.

:unamused: I pay same price with same data and some minz + text on 3. These type offers have been on a few times on 3.

But 3 is a crap network generally compared to EE

Agreed. It's not a like for like deal. This is way hotter.

Don't believe the hype . I get faster network with 3three was with EE for 1 year . (Plus EE have hidden charges, check you bill people )

Are you going to offer any extra info to back up that remark? It's a bit worthless if you don't tell us your experience with respect to these 'hidden charges' - surely in order to make this comment you must have had some, so it would be useful to forum members if you could embellish on this - certainly I'd be interested to know about it as I'm an EE customer so I'd like to know what to be wary of.

Been with 3 for years whereas my wife and sister left EE As bad customer service and piss poor signal.
Therefore marking your comment as cack!

EE slowly merged Orange base stations and dismantled excess, EE is not what it was. My coverage was better on T Mob & with Orange roaming bonus, it's not as great as it was nor speed but care is much better than either.

Son is on EE, Daughter on 3.
They are both crap in places. But sometimes have covered where Vodafone and o2 don't!
So your opinion, not backed up by facts. As I can compare pretty easily. In fact in most places, 3 beats EE. I have EE as work phone, lots of places end up tethering to daughters 3 sim, to get any signal!

I have been with Three since 2013 and i can confirm this.. for calls and messaging its absolutely fine but try watching youtube at 1080p during the hours of 10am-1.30am,
Three limit their speeds to 5mb/s while isnt terrible and should be absolutely fine -- its not a constant 5mb/s. It cannot maintain that 5mb/s and will drop down to 3mb/s when it comes to streaming -- It doesnt matter if youre on 3G or 4G, they will just throttle speeds down so hard to make it absolutely pointless.
EE might throttle, but in my experience I have still managed to pull 20mb/s if not over that during the same hours.
This deal is a steal

Never noticed any throttling on Three, here is a speed test on my connection at the moment.
Great deal on the EE sim , hot from me.

Hi I have a question. I have a mifi box can this be used as mifi? if not does anyone know of the best deal on this at the moment. I have a mobile phone and a toddler obsessed with watching kinder eggs being opened on youtube. My data is not lasting on my mobile at all.

You can use your EE allowance in any device you choose as far as I'm aware.

I'm with 3. Will I notice much difference if I switch to EE?

This site is not as good as it once was! It's been successful for it's honesty but now it's just been hijacked by big business! Sigh!!!!!
