Default Mobile Broadband 3

I have been thinking about getting Mobile Broadband and maybe doing away with my home BT broadband but was worried about possible limitations on use. Today I have found a special offer from 3, which must be done through Quidco - The web's cashback cooperative. Basically you join Quidco for a £5 fee which is deducted from your first incoming bonus. You get a 3 Dongle with max download speed of 2.8mbps, monthly allowance of 5GB of download for £7.50 per month on 18 month contract. They then pay £12.50 to Quidco who deduct their £5, so you also receive £7.50 from them. Have signed up as it seems the best offer I have seen, but has a deadline of 31 July.

David

PS. Quidco seem to have obtained a lot of discounts from many suppliers on many goods, so worth a look.

Hi Fordson. I converted our son & daughter over to 3 (THREE) last year. They BOTH got rid of AOL broadband and are over the moon with the reception. Faster sometimes than AOL.
The current offer from Three is 5GB useage for £7.50 a month on an 18 month contract. If we spent enough time in the UK? We would have it too.

You don't need to pay anyone £5 to get the deal.

You won't find it by searching the site but here it is.

Deal Summary

Try the link - bought mine last night and dispatch acknowledged.

The offer is only until 31 July.

You can pay me the £5!!!
or the £30 recommend a friend.

Keith,

It is a good deal, but I will also receive £7.50 from Quidco, so first month will be free.

I think they must have sold a lot of these as they were out of stock and it will be the end of the week before mine is delivered.
