Is it any good, has anyone had first hand experience on how good/crap it is.

They have a fab deal on but is it worth it?

Not used it myself, had a few friends try it and say it was wank, and go back to one of the big three......

I was with them last year and don't really have any complaints, only went to Orange this year as the deals were better for me.

The only bad thing that i could say is that the customer serivces is in a foreign country......but if you can live with that. Go for it.

Switched to 3 only a month ago, but no problems so far with coverage, and customer services were very helpful when carphone warehouse cocked up the contract. Will buy direct next time.

Orange charged me £8.50 to move my number to 3 :(

been with them for 3 years now, never had any problems tbh. known lots of people who have though

useless, was with them for a year, fecked debits, rubbish reception and curry call centres

I use em Jim, no probs at all. in the early days they had shite coverage, however it is not common knowledge but they are subsidised by nokia who own 90% of the masts in the uk ! my bill has been no more that 20 per month since i got it. i have been with orange, voda, tmobile (one2one) and O2. this has been the cheapest by far, and the handsets on offer are mint.. i got a N70 with tom tom great peice of kit buddy (old now but hey its a year old now) thing with providers is due to everyones unique usage of their phone what may be good for one is not for another ) i text alot so this is good for me.......also web access is free with 3g. and u get free msn messenger for ure set too.

been with them for 2 years and its all been good. 3G is very handy.

Mixed opinions but mainly positive..

£15 a month get me 500 minutes anytime any network calls and 400? texts...

It stays at 15 quid for life as long as you stay with them...

Hmm tempted...

Thanks all

Crap coverage round here,it uses the 3 signel right down to 1 bar then switches to cellnet signel.So I usually end up leaving the phone on the floor so it switches over.
You can install an engineers prog in the phone so you can set it to stay on cellnet transmitters.
On a + side I can watch telly on my phone at work use the internet and ebay.

Utter, utter utter crap.

Seriusly dont bother Jon, you'll be pulling your hair out after a week.

Sorry Jon I can't hear you ..... breaking up .....

No signal AT ALL within 2 miles of my house and if you consider that includes "The centre for the cotswolds", "the Uks favourite high street" and the Gold Cup venue it's a bit of a poor show.

I have friends in London, Manchester and Newcstle who rate it at their homes but have to borrow somebody elses phone if they come to visit me..

Been with Voda for 8 years and never had a signal problem ..... anywhere and imprtantly also nowhere as well if you catch my drift.

Every day is a school day ...........

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...

i'm with dangerous and roger on this one. i think its a cotwolds thing. although i have to admit its better than it was a year or two ago, but still not as good as orange. i'm with them all the same. i get good signal tho in and around cities though
