Don't know if this may of interest to anyone here,
but I recieved a Email with this link:

its for a Free "3" Sim card and it has £10 worth of Airtime
included free, best of all it's Pay As You Go
Just Thought i'd post it up anyway,
its good to Talk. Text or Mobile Net it lol
Ps, You must have a 3G Capable handset to use this sim card!

Oh will order mine then
thanks. Why not use up some internet with it. Or does the £10 go on once you topped up? That was the case with the Tesco sim i once had. It said free £10 credit with sim. I rang them up as i could not find it. They said i had to top up first 
no such thing as a free lunch they say. I have so many sim cards now i could open a shop full of sims I just ordered mine

Seems you need to register the sim number (not mobile) on some website, wonder what details they want, I've ordered and will report back once I get it. Could use the 10 quid to make some calls abroad and 150MB of free net to blow away is also not too bad

My free sim arrived this morning but not registered it yet
Posted by Bonovox
Mine arrived yesterday and you go to a website called sim register or something and register the sim number mobile number and your name and address and your free credit goes on within 72 hours. Mine went on in 24 hours i have connected to 3 now great value. Every top up gives you even more texts and internet than you had on your first top up. Then you get unlimited 3to3 calls mine went upto 10,000 3to3 minutes by my second top up. Crazy. All your free stuff is valid for 3 months.

Yup mine arrived Monday,
I haven't got a 3G phone so I can't even open it yet lol

I am finding using a Nokia phone reception on 3 is great everywhere. If you use a Sony Ericsson on 3 for some reason the reception is poorer. I have used countless Sony Ericsson phones and whenever i put a 3 sim in its terrible. Put it in a Nokia its superb. Call quality is so clear on 3 too as are data speeds and on top of all that crazy value for money.

I always have a good signal on 3, my p1 would hold a signal on 3 and my n97 is just as good, there data speeds are the best ive seen and they have alot of 3g coverage.
Posted by Bonovox
Yeah my 3 mobie broadband has recently improved which shows they are investing in its network. Also the sharing with T Mobile helps.
Posted by Miss UK
That sounds great bono! 3 reception is ok here but my mate says reception suxx by his work! Has anyone tried those 3 inq minis? Noticed they were £39.99
Posted by Bonovox
They are not upto much most reviews I seen say it has bad menu lag

Got my free sim card today, reading the booklet, don't really understand the 150MB of free internet. It lasts for 90 days, but what if I topup with a tenner before that time, will they add another 150MB on top of the current allowance?
Posted by blerk
Can anyone answer my above question? Can't find the answer anywhere on the three.co.uk website
I'm amazed by the speed of activation, almost immediately the free credit was added.
They're just giving it away!
Posted by blerk
Hmm. It seems for 5 quid you get 30days of internet @ 1GB. That's much better value than Tmobile. I might just stick with this sim. So after all it's pretty smart of three to give away 10 quid + some texts and internet if it gains them a customer.
Posted by Bonovox
Well think about this. I topped up £15 & got 150mb internet 500 text plus 5,000 3to3 calls. Then when i topped up again the week after I recieved a further 150mb internet on top of what I already had plus another 5,000 3to3 minutes plus another load of texts. It's crazy value i wonder how long they can keep affording to give so much away. I still had my credit also on top & the calls are cheap too.
Posted by blerk
Yeah also I wonder how long they can do this. Worst case they increase their prices and I'll just move to the next provider keeping my number.
Thanks for answering my query about the 150mb. Though I guess 5 quid for 1GB is nothing.
Have you tried the 2 quid tv add-on? I wonder what that includes, or is it just iPlayer or something?
Posted by Bonovox
No i don't bother with mobile tv i see no point. I got a massive tv at home. You also get free Skype free voicemail too. Gone are the days of T Mobile and Virgin free voicemail although i do not use voicemail very much.
Posted by blerk
I always turn voice mail off, I hate it. People leave tons of messages and expect you to call them back. I prefer emails or text messages instead.
I guess I will trial 3 until my credit runs low and then see what I will do with it.

Thats very good all we need now is a cheap dongle for mobile net pleasure from 3, ive just upgraded on voda if I seen this post earlier I would of left emm haha

You can use free edition of joikuspot on your phone, it will open an Wireless access point sharing your 3 broadband. The free edition only support http/https though, if you need other protocols you have to pay. Mind you you can use most IM client via http, or just use meebo

Any one had the "This number is not identified" when trying to register ???
Then gives you a 0845 number to ring.
Is this a way of recouping some of the free £10 airtime ???
Posted by fluke9
The free £10 does not expire.
But if I put another £10 on it will it use the free £10 first or the time limited subsequent top up ???
Posted by fluke9
Any one ???
I assume it uses the free £10 first.
But am hoping it does not.
