Their deal seems seriously too good to ignore.

Thinking of going with the PAYG deal. If you top up with £10 you get 300 texts free, free online time, free voice mail. Plus you can make free skype to skype calls forever, even if you have £0 credit. PLUS, if you top up online, your free texts are doubled to 600... And the free stuff is valid for 90 days after top up!!! Also noticed it says if you are a PAYG customer and get your number transfered across from your current network, they give you £10 free credit. The reception on t-mobile is shocking, been with them since forever and they have never give me any benefits for being loyal to them. Is this a no-brainer?

None of the other networks come close to this deal so have just orded a free PAYG sim and am hunting on ebay for a 3 sim lock phone with all the skype software on etc...

Is anyone with these? Is it as good as it looks?

I'm ditching 3 at the end of my contract mate.
Since they've swapped over to orange for the 2g network, I've found it to be absolutely crap.
Theyre pretty expensive for what you get, and they only have indian call centres.
Back to 02 for me.

i just left 3 and returned to o2. Dropped calls on 3 and the fact most of my family and friends were on o2 was my main reasons for leaving.

I'll be dropping 3 at the end of my contract due to poor network coverage in my area.

why not check out the 6 month contract they are doing,
its £15 for 300 mins/texts plus free skype etc and you get a choice of 3 handsets
1 skypephone2
2 inq1 (good reviews)
or
3 nokia 6120 symbian phone

I'm with 3 on a monthly contract, which I find brilliant value, and the phone upgrades are pretty good at end of contract - just got a E71 to replace E65 (much better phone) on the same contract rate. Only problem is struggle with reception at my folks house on the north west, but back home in the south east never had a problem. Just ordered a PAYG Skype phone off them for £40 to use as a home phone and cancelled my Virgin phone line, saving me £11 p/m - you can get a landline number £30 a year for Skype that non-skypes can call you on.

I've been on all the networks as I always do the 12 months free contracts (where you pay each month and send your bills away to get your money back so after 12 months it's cost you nothing for all the free mins and sms).

I found that 3 was the worst signal of any of them.

At home (near Liverpool) the only 1 with a good signal is t-mobile (or virgin) and at work (Stockport) I used to get a good signal from Orange, O2 and Voda, but not t-mobile or 3.

Also travelling around the country 3 was quite crud.

It was last year when I was last on 3, so they may have improved a little.

3 are ok till something goes wrong, just don't expect the call centres to budge on anything at all, i'll never use them again no matter what they were offering.
