I think it depends who you talk to, I was on the video link with 3 customer service yesterday and they said there was no 30 day rule for contract sims, but there was on the payg sims, I have ordered my free payg sim and will activate it well before we go to Beni in October just in case.Ive just got of the phone to 3 customer services they told me there is no "1 month waiting" to get feel at home
It must do, because I was always told that it was the other way round!I think it depends who you talk to, I was on the video link with 3 customer service yesterday and they said there was no 30 day rule for contract sims, but there was on the payg sims,

Mine seems to be working fine, but I did chuck the chargerI believe some of you bought one of these phablets from this seller? So did I.
Has anyone had any problems with it? I've only had it a couple of days and have only used on WiFi so far.
First off, the cheap and nasty charger tripped our fuse and when that was sorted it didn't charge the device at all. I used my Samsung phone charger which worked perfectly.
Now getting apps from the Play store, I sometimes get message 'package file is invalid' but the app will download on 2nd or 3rd attempt.
More importantly the device is freezing and powering off when I'm doing stuff - it then immediately powers back on again without me needing to press the power button (so more of a restart). The last 2 times this happened was when I was downloading maps from CamperContact.
I know you get what you pay for, right now I'm not feeling I've got ÂŁ80 worth. I don't trust it. I bought it as an alternative to taking the ipad away with us as that's more valuable and also it won't take a SIM card.
So - any problems from other users?

Sad to say that my experience with retail outlets for the mobile phone business, whether network specific or generic, has been universally dreadful. Poor product knowledge, poor customer relations & in one case, what I later discovered to be outright lies.
Having said that, I was chatting to an acquaintance this afternoon who was complimentary about the local branch of the Carphone Warehouse, who had sorted a problem for him. It didn't sound that brilliant a resolution to me, but he was happy, so one satisfied customer, at least.
I'll be interested to hear how the visit to the 3 shop goes.
OK I'm now at the bay de Somme and confirm that every everything is working as it should, I bought the PAYG sim with the $15 25gb data and unlimited calls
