Has anyone got experience of the Three 3G an 4G network, ie reliability and UK coverage? There is a new mobile supplier Ecotalk offering some good sim only deals using this network. see https://www.ecotalk.co.uk/?+Ecotric...uch&utm_term=0_4ac22687d5-a372f79c49-68255985

I have been with 3 for about 5 years. Coverage is generally very good, certainly no better or worse than the others. 4g works well where it is available, otherwise 3G works fine.
As with all networks, there will be black spots away from civilisation.
The biggest benefit of 3 is the ability to use it abroad as part of your allowance

I use both 3 network and EE in my mi fi and prefer EE as it gives 4g more often so faster browsing.

As above --- I've been with 3 for years and never had a problem.
The fact you can use your mobile in Europe with no extra charges is brilliant - save me hundreds every time I go abroad.

I pay around £12 for 600 minutes and 1Gb of data it always seems to be all I need.

If you're looking for UK only one have a shuftie at Tesco Mobile, we pay £7.50 a month for 250 mins and 500mb data, 5000 texts and that includes a new phone on a 24 month contract, if you have more than one on the contract you each get a 'perk' so we get 400 mins each for the same price. We've got the Alcatel Pop 4 and it's a brilliant phone.

In addition Tesco are probably going to be allowing use abroad during the summer school holidays, similar to Three's FAH, which is a good bonus.

Tesco PAYG is pretty good to use outside the UK for calls as well - very similar costs to 3 PAYG and no limit on days abroad. We switched to it after 3 blocked roaming on our phones after a couple of long trips. Still use a prepay 3 data sim in our mifi for internet access though as Tesco not as good on data.

yep, have 3 literally, contracts with Three One for son, missus and myself. As we all have different uses, the terms of usage vary. I'm paying £10.00 a month for unlimited uk calls and texts, and 3Gb data. Son has a really old contract based on data use, missus limited data, calls and text. My only mistake was not having the Three abroad this time as I didn't think I would be going abroad, now I'm off to the States for three weeks later in year. I have used the Three abroad from Europe and Hong Kong, so was really useful, so will get an amended contract for when I'm in America. I'm happy with my contracts, but I do review them every year, we all use our own phones and that works. Coverage is good and I have never experienced outages, but again I suppose that depends where you live. Hope this helps.
