3 UK getting Galaxy S

It seems that O2 joined crap wagon allong with other providers..
Their smartphone bolt-on (which was free before on O2 300+ and above), now will cost you fiver on top of every tarrif.
Even more crappy is that O2 FUP is now 500MB instead of 3GB.

If i may suggest..
Pick T-Mob as their FUP for internet access on android smartphones is 3GB.
Check their network coverage before though, as they tend to suck on good 3G signal in some areas..
Good luck.

Gibsonus - can you confirm where you heard this? I can't find hide nor hare of it on three.co.uk.

I'm basically going to go with either three / t-mobile or O2, whoever comes out first :)


Sorry I've been distracted by work for a week or so. I heard it from a customer services rep on the phone to 3 when i said i was leaving. This was a follow up call to this. He was very sure of it.

Also i get 1 gig allowance from 3 and to be honest i use alot every month and i rarely get warning texts(twice in twelve months ;))

In general i think 3 get a bad rep but I'd say they're generally good. My 2 complaints would be foreign call centres(i can just barely put up with it) and occassional call drops in very specific locations like 2 particular spots in the south side of my city. Weird.

Looks like 3 has unlimited Internet limited at 500MB indeed :D but not their AddOns which are still capped at 1GB. Have a look here: Link Document

Personally I have been using 3 for a few years now and have to say they are really good. No problems what so ever. Besides no other network offers VoIP as far as I know, not to mention unlimited VoIP :). Obviously every network offers something specific to attract customers but this works for me as I use Skype quite a lot.
