Just a word of caution, '3' have a very old network of transmitters and are having major problems so make sure you can definitely get a good signal where you intend to use it and ask in the shop before you buy it, then if you can't, despite what the coverage checker may say, you should be able to get your money back.

Well perhaps you're not quite so 'in the loop' as you think you are! But, if that's the case and you don't think there ARE any issues then you'd better get your butt over here and sort out the bloody awful '3' network we have round these parts, so much so that Carphone Warehouse have stopped selling their products due to the problems with connecting and using the '3' network - and that is TRUE.That's certainly not the case. Where on earth did you get that from ?
Three also lease by far and away the fastest access network (backbone) out of all the providers. I should know ... we provide the access network for both Three and EE :thumb:
She's hopefully that by the end of June things will have improved as the new 4G network should be up and running round here and alleviate the 3G problems they have - every time they 'repair' one bit it has a knock-on effect to another bit apparently ... and so it goes on. We're therefore hopeful that by the time we come back off holiday in early July we'll have a '3' network that is usable again otherwise I don't know what we'll be doing!The network in your area is degraded at the moment and our engineers have been working hard to resolve it and restore full service. However, we do know that this will be ongoing for some time.

Hi David
Thanks for the info on sim.
Do you know what the cost of top up is after 1st month as I cannot find info on PC World website?

We have been '3' customers for years and years and due to the problems, which '3' THEMSELVES have confirmed, we have been given some money back by them and are currently having to buy T-mobile sims to use in our mifi (the fastest 3g/4g one you can get!) as we can hardly use 3 at all ...
The lady in the Chief Executive's office confirmed what she'd said to me on the phone in an email, extract below:

1. I don't work for Three, so will keep my butt right here. Thanks for the invite though. :thumb:
2. Three kicked Carphone Warehouse off their approved vendor list for contractual (financial) reasons. Nothing to do with CPW being unhappy with Three / network issues. Phones4U were removed in 2012 (?)
3. Now that you've put the issue into context it sort of makes sense. It's "just" a local network issue, and not a national MSO . These happen on all networks and at all levels.
4. The long lead time to fix is purely down to them waiting for the scheduled 4G upgrade, rather than spend money on a repair. Or (as I know goes on) robbing another cell for spares - hence moving the fault from one area to another
