3 VideoTalk 500 12 Month

I joined 3 (pay monthly) from T-Mobile pay as you go 6 months back. I am completely satisfied with their service, the free phone and the tariff.

I think they provide one of the cheapest tariffs. Yet the service is very good. I used the phone in South, South-East and South West region and never had any coverage issue. I went to Scotland for a few days and did not have any coverage problem there either. It works fine even in fast moving train/bus/car. I can also browse internet or send MMS (by paying extra as these are not included in the free time) without any problem.

I pay £15 for free 500 minutes anytime any network talk time and 100 any network texts. I had to sign a 12 month contract. I also got a fantastic Motorola Razor V3 phone free with this connection. I heard from my 3 user friends that they offer new free phone at the end of the contract.

They also have a good referral program; if you are a 3 customer and recommend a friend of yours to 3 then both of you will get £30 each!

On the whole I am satisfied with this network provider and will probably renew my contract with them.
