3 UK abolishes roaming cost
only on other 3 networks though, and I wonder if other 3 networks are doing this
- ok, not really enough countries, but it could get the others moving ... http://www.three.co.uk/personal/cove...me_details.omp Quote:
The free incoming calls might be really handy, used with callback. I haven't checked yet if the WePay credit will apply; but this idea has made me realise I might have missed something at home ... :evil: |
Thanks for this, Andy. I've recently moved to 3 so this is good news. Admittedly 3 don't seem to be in anywhere near as many markets as Vodafone, Orange etc but this is a good start.

This is a GREAT news :beer:
Well now i WANT a 3UK sim card :D So you can call me from UK without any international surchage :cool: |
Yes, officially three UK charge £10 (€15) for a SIM with no credit: such SIM-only no-credit deals I've always considered a bit naughty but I dare say they will have a few takers now they've announced this.
Having said that, the last time I looked there were sellers on Ebay (UK) selling 3 SIMS for £4 or more with some activation credit. As a matter of interest, what is 3 coverage like in Italy? I have a friend in Ancona plus Wales are playing San Marino in October so I think a visit to Italy could be a possibility this year.... |

Alas so far this doesn't apply to prepaid (3 Reload) customers because they generally can't use international roaming yet (except on the Italian 3 network).
|
I don't know about the agreement working or not on prepay, but an old 3uk SIM that I had worked in Hong Kong. I got the phone for use in Japan and really didn't care about the SIM. On a lark, I popped it into the phone in HK and it worked. I burnt out the few credits that came bundled with that SIM in about five minutes, but oh well.

For contract users, the UK one applies to visited 3 networks in the 7 countries. On prepaid, fewer countries - worth checking from time to time
The 3 Ireland version applies when visiting the 7 countries on contract or only UK and Italy on prepay. Gryphone's remarks about no prepay roaming apply to 3 Austria 3 Sweden customers roam free in Denmark at their normal charges. I think Danes visit Sweden on the same terms, but I didn't find detail on the Danish site |
