Yup. The add ons have stayed the same whilst plans have got cheaper :wink: win/win :smile:

In theory you could jump from the 30GB at £18 a month and then add £5 for unlimited.

Thank you just wondering whether it's worth the credit check or whether you reckon live chat would knock that price down further.

Yes it does

Call and ask for PAC on current number (assume minimum term complete), order new contract, submit PAC to another network PAYG sim, then ask for PAC (excuse: poor signal if they ask) and give PACstraight back to the new Three sim/account. Done, jobs a good ane. :thumbsup:

Yay my £11 12GB deal changed over today and my 18GB £5 add on is showing, £16 30GB what a winner :grin:‌

Isn't it £12 for 12GB plan and not £11?

Just annoying they don't roll on but hey ho.

It's a £5 18GB add on taking it to 30GB with a 12GB plan, then a further £5 for AYCE with the 12/18 GB giving 30GB tethering and unlimited handset data. But any 12GB plan will allow this, new customer or changing plan to a base of 12GB allowance inclusion.

Could you not upgrade to the 12GB deal and then add on the 30GB then the unlimited data?

Thanks for sharing this deal seaniboy. I'm paying £25 /month for AYCE data, 600 mins and unltd. texts on a rolling contract and haven't been happy paying that much over the last few months. Been looking for a good sim-only deal with minimum 30GB data and from reading HUKD and other forums over the last few months it seems like Three couldn't give a poop if you left and asked for a PAC and other networks' offerings have been pretty poor on a minimum 30GB data plan.

Prefer to move over to EE but I think I may have to take up the £16 /month offer for 30GB, AYCE data + texts from Three for additional contracts, and then cancel my existing contract and ask for PAC code for that contract > port it over to a PAYG sim on another network and > then port that number to my new sim-only contract. Bit of a headache :disappointed: Might give EE a ring tomorrow first though to see if they can beat the £16/month deal for 30GB data....

Ah! Sorry I read 4G as meaning 4G not 4GB and they were selling you 4G in the upsell :wink: still a decent £15 deal if you use AYCE handset and Go Binge services including via hotspot, including [email protected] Go Binging.

Personally I like choice of large hotspot allowances incase one network has a poor signal I can Three the data via iPhone tethering. I carry a best value payg sim for data for every network, signal over Scotland as a whole can be hit & miss like underpopulated sticks of England/Wales/NI. The few major cities here can be like London too, hit and miss on all networks.

No, it was 4gig hotspot

See I've got a question. I've also found this "error" in the website using the exact same link..

My question: as I'm an existing customer with three on a 8GB/unl texts & calls (I've already called them & they said lowest they'll give me the 12GB plan that this thread is talking about, is for 14£ so I'm a tad disappointed), if I were to click this link that doesn't ask for an "existing customer number", how would I go about cancelling my current contract I have with three, switching over my number over to the new 12GB contract all the while not allowing them to know my intentions? How would all this work..??

Correct, 12GB £12, data add-ons are only valid the month billing period they are bought from my3, so add 18GB for £5 and a further £5 add-on gives the original plan/add-on 30GB which can be used for hotspot and AYCE handset data, Go Binge services are unlimited including using Hotspot Wifi to access them (Go Binge and Hotspot access for GoBinge are also available in [email protected] countries)

Simply you have £12 a month plan, data add-ons can be bought as needed via my3 (account) online, 18GB and AYCE, both £5. So yes £22 all in, no commitment with data add-ons, your plan is £12, add data add-ons as needed per billing month, exactly why I got a similar Three plan as my data usage changes depending on location, the 12GB plans offer the best data add-ons.

Add-ons support.three.co.uk/SRV…93)

Page 10: three.co.uk/ter…pdf


If you want the 12GB deal follow the 'get deal' link, if you want £2 off any other plan using a payg Three number follow the link further down in the original deal post :wink:

So, if I'm reading this correctly, I could sign up to this plan and add £5 for 1 data upgrade and then add another £5 for a second data upgrade which would get me to AYCE everything for £22 a month based on a twelve month contract?

I could apply an old payg number to get £2 a month off that?

can you chop and change with the data add-ons? If 30gb would suffice one month can you reduce it somehow or is it a once you're in, it you're in it, sort of thing?
How and when do you add the data add-ons? As you order or when you've received it?

looking at this as can't see a better AYCE tariff for around £20(?), unless anyone else does? :wink:

That's a great deal for 30GB, Three really are becoming more and more competitive again, for a few years after The One Plan although AYCE handset data was available they were very stingy with data in comparison with what other networks were offering excluding AYCE data, very good to see the gap is widening again like when Three launched and The One Plan era and shook up the market.

I've been on Three a few times over the years but the offers seem to be more competitive than ever with data, The One Plan was never going to be sustained with unlimited data but the last few years the data offers on non AYCE were poor with low data/hotspot, the network certainly has become more rebust and offers are very good.

This priceplan shake up of dropping 8GB and plan pricing is great news all round for current and new customers. Seems staff also have more flexibility with moving current customers plans with more data if willing to sacrifice unlimited minutes, it's a lot easier to track used minutes than data without calling 333 or using my3, people have a rough idea of minutes (unless you yap yap yap yap yap and pay more to Three LOL), I'm definitely much more of a texter and data user than caller these days, calls generally are non personal or calling the old parent when texting isn't appropriate.

Not related per se but... Can honestly say the call quality and speed is amazingly superb in comparison to EE here (which makes no sense at all considering EE/Three share base stations and backhaul) I made many complaints to Three years ago about the same issues, Three have ironed out &sorted their network locally whereas EE just ignore long term reported technical issues, and lied they were resolved from 2016.

Three, 2 bars of 4G, indoors, iPhone 6S:

Just used Live Chat through My3 app at midnight, and I've upgraded from 8GB data with unlimited minutes/texts and tethering to the Advance 600 deal which is 30GB data 600 minutes,unlimited texts, tethering, feel at home and go binge for £1 extra on a rolling 30 day contract. Now paying £14, very happy with that.

I can't add a data add-on via my3 whilst awaiting changing plan it only offers Blackberry for £5, I'm almost half way through my 4GB, live chat via the Three app came up trumps (again) when I got 8GB data add-ons for £3 (till my billing date kicks in 18 days time) :thumbsup: Went from circa 2.5GB to 10.5GB :grin:

The Three staff on the Three app Live Chat are great :muscle: try them out :smile:

Ok I took a Netflix trial to test last night and streaming or downloading on my iPhone and it didn't use data. :thumbsup:

Spent last night watching Grace & Frankie, these two old biddies had me lmfao :grin:

That's what I got :raised_hand: I've unlimited (crape quality) EE £5 sim mins if I run short, but most my regular chat is text now, if the networks weren't so stupid when smartphone tech was taking over and offered unlimited texts as standards they could have made a killing the last few years.

After all the messing about I finally got a deal this morning,600 mins, unlimited texts, 12gb data and the binge on the Advanced plan for £11 per month

Well spotted! :thumbsup: virtual heat for you jammydav93 :grin:

If you choose 'sims' it makes you enter a existing Three number after choosing plan, if you scroll down to 'Sim Only Voice' 12GB/Unlimited £12 it doesn't ask LOL I've amended the deal info :wink:

three.co.uk/cus…ers let me buy with £2 discount for the 12GB deal without verifying I was an existing Three number.

Or port out to payg elsewhere and back in Mon-Wed and get this deal at £12 :wink:

489 degrees :smile: glad people are getting use out of this deal :thumbsup:

Port out and back in then, with a payg sim as deal says it will be £12 - networks will soon learn when loads of customers do this it causes them work in PAC staff wages and the costs of setting up new contracts etc for the sake of £24 for a 12 month term.

Guess it depends what you pay now for what ?

Use the live chat in Three app, I used it at 1am when customer services were closed :wink:

Call and ask, I jumped from 4 to 12GB for £1 :wink:

You can but try, I didn't expect £11 for 12GB/600, I wanted unlimited/12GB for £12 but saved £1 lol - all good for me :wink:

Use it or lose it in billing month it's bought.

Data from Netflix or Go Binge services should not matter if streamed or downloaded in browser/app, its server/ip dependent. I don't have Netflix anymore so not sure if I can download on the iOS app ?

Go Binge, hotspot capability & [email protected] roaming :smile:

This deal is unlimited mins, as a current customer I only got offered 600 mins. MMS with a smartphone ? Email them or use a messaging app. Roaming always involves incoming call fees, UK or [email protected] countries have no incoming call fees.

Depends on what you are looking for, 12GB is £14 for existing customers, £12 for new. Only obvious way to achieve £12 is to port out then back, having used a PAYG SIM to upgrade to SIMO to get 12 for 12.
I've already received my PAC like many above.

had a look at the tab small print for their deal, along with what you said, it may affect some people that it's 600mins not all you can eat, picture messages are more expensive, and you pay to receive international calls.

My other half was on a £12 deal for just 1gb for years without ever being offered an upgrade, offered here lots of deals on the essential plan but we need the feel at home abroad and they couldn't do anything.

When on the phone it clicked that I could get this deal for both of us by each getting a additional sim card and giving our 30 days notice. Great deal. 3 seemed to think we shouldn't save a few quid a month to avoid the hassle haha

(8gb last week now 12 for same price!)

Am I right in thinking this deal is for an add up already sim? So if I want to get a better deal on my existing sim (I do not need another) I am better off ringing and haggling? Thanks

rats! just called them they wouldn't budge from 8gb, £12/mth to this. :kissing_heart:

Same here, have two expired contracts with them, asked for one of them to be £12 at least, they refused. Offered £30gb essential plan for £15 but was not interested. Git PAC codes sent through.

Just got off the phone with Three, 35 mins! They wouldn't budge, best they would offer is £14pm for 12gb. They've texted me my PAC Code...

signed up for 8Gb (£12) a few weeks ago. do you think they will price match?

went for it. thanks

I pay 9 quid for monthly rolling advance plan 4gb, ayce mins and texts. Not sure if they will offer the 12gb for a couple of quid more.

Gave them a ring no budging and I ended up leaving with my PAC code. Nothing ventured and all that but may wait until close to the termination date and tell them I changed my mind.

Thank you.

The add on for AYCE for £5, does that roll over for the next month or if I don't use it I lose it?

And the go binge on netflix, does that include downloading netflix shows are free to or is it just streaming?

I'm on EE and out my min contract now so may try and get them to match this or better it.

Good bargaining chip either way for people looking for better deals all round imo

There is wifi but it's terrible and constantly knocks you off. I will phone them today and see what happens. Cheers for your help.

Perfect, yup you got it! :wink:
thats what I used, my Mobile Broadband 200MB reward sim phone number :thumbsup:

I think I've got it. My wife has a three payg sim in the draw as it has 200mb of free data per month (useful for feel at home).
I can use this payg number to get the £2 discount on a new contract with three (and then port my number) and the current three payg sim will still be active.

thanks for that mate. these 3 deals are crazy!! the only issue is that they pay change the price of the add on any time but i like your thinking.
by the way, whats the difference between the essential plan and the advanced plan?

30GB/Unlimited text&Mins is £41 on EE, unlimited data for (poor quality) Apple Music but that's it! 6 months free AM then it's £9.99 a month.

Even the free EE BT Sports app access (BT own EE) uses your data allowance.

Go Binge would give you free streaming access to Soundcloud - and quality is top notch compared to AM, which like Spotify, Deezer are $ub$cription services. Soundcloud is FREE music with free streaming :wink:

three.co.uk/go-…ils


Ask for this Advanced plan I've posted for £12 as a existing customer, it's £14 on the website and includes Go Binge then add 18GB data add-on in every month you need if you still need 30GB, 18GB add-on for £5 = £17 a month for 30GB when needed or £12 for 12GB - either way Go Binge will cut down your data usage as free :wink:

No, sorry you misunderstand - you use a Three payg sim number to get the £2 discount a month on a new sim only contract with a new Three temporary number by entering the Three payg phone number as your 'existing customer' proof on your Three sim only contract order to get the £2 a month discount, it asks for a current Three number (enter the payg number) after you choose a plan and try to go to checkout, then you carry on with the checkout process :wink:

You can get a Three payg sim from most newsagents for 50p/£1.

When you receive confirmation of your Three sim only contract temporary 'phone number' or the sim arrives with the new number you can Three on 333 and give them the PAC from T-Mobile to transfer your existing number across on top of the temporary Three number, or submit online as the link I gave you before^ in my last reply to you. They will advise when the number transfer should be complete via calling or via text info if you submit request online.

It is best to do this PAC/number transfer in to Three Mon-Wed as PAC requests later in the week that may have a issue crop up can't be sorted at the weekend, some late Thursday requests can't be fixed on a Fri so it has to wait till Monday. You can submit on Thurs morning but they don't action till late Thursday, that's why I say submit Mon-Wed.

(I've been stuck with two different networks sims before all weekend and neither worked as I submitted PAC on Thurs, it was sorted Monday afternoon after I called in the morning, but what a nightmare having no working sim or my mobile number all weekend!)

Anything else just ask :smile:

been with 3 for a year but going to move over to ee. currently paying £22 for unlimited minutes and texts and 30gb of data. got offered the same but for £20 but with additional all you can binge thing where using certain apps like netflix, spotify, deezer etc, when used, the data would not come out of the monthly 30gb, but can use those services on a unlimited basis through data. so if i watched netflix of 4g on 3 on that package, it would not show on my data.

The £5 18gb addon, is that something you can buy one month, skip a month or 2 then buy it again or do you have to have it every month once you've initially gone for it?

How would I go about porting my existing number (currently t-mobile) to this deal.

As an existing customer i am unable to upgrade to this plan for £12 they want £14 :disappointed:

My wife's contract has finished last month, called them this evening but they didn't offer anything better than current plans for new customers ...like 12GB for £14, she get PAC without any final offer :disappointed:

This could be good... currently paying £12 for 4GB Advanced, but I need more data. Got to ring them anyway, wish me luck :thumbsup:

Heat OP.

Dont forget Quidco, also you cant do tethering while abroad , and your also limited to 12gb while roaming even tho i have 30gb, just thought id give poeple a heads up if thats what they wanted.

Thanks for this, paid 10£ for 4GB AYCE, had a chat with them and got this deal for 11£.

Anyone know when the £2 a month discount ends? I have a GiffGaff goody bag ending in about 3 weeks and don't really want to start a new contract till that is over

Additional info for anyone on Three 4GB advanced - I upgraded to 12GB/600 mins for £1, with plan changes and cheaper prices and 8GB removed plans from sale, plan changes seem to be more for less. So if you have a 4 or 8GB plan call Three and see what they can offer you data wise for a change of priceplan :thumbsup:

Cheers op, this post spurred me into calling them . I had 12gb , 200 minutes and unlimited texts for £17 . Changed it to 12gb plus go binge and unlimited calls and texts for £14 .
So a £3 saving for more data and unlimited min . Win win .
I was was on my last month of my contract thankfully.

Great deal and available to all! Have some Heat!
