Is Three Mobile a good network?

Three Mobile is an excellent network. It’s one of the four big networks in the UK and it has its own network that offers 99% 3G and 4G coverage.  Even better, Three’s award-winning 5G network has now been rolled out across 400 towns and cities across the UK and is continuing to grow all the time.

As a Three Mobile customer, you’ll get access to lots of great perks, including the Three+ loyalty app, which is full of excellent offers. You can enjoy 20% off Uber Eats and £3 Cineworld tickets, as well as exclusive pre-sale tickets for gigs and events.

Three Mobile also has a helpful customer support team. They’re available Monday-Friday, 8am-10pm and 9am-6pm at weekends.

Three customers on Pay Monthly plans can get in touch by calling 333, free from their mobile phone. Alternatively, you can call 0333 338 1001 from any other phone and will be charged at their standard rate.

What network does Three Mobile use?

Three Mobile is one of the four major mobile phone network providers in the UK, so it uses its own network. As such, it’s able to deliver 3G and 4G coverage across 98.9% of the UK population. And its growing 5G network is now available in over 400 towns and cities.

Can I use my Three Mobile SIM abroad?

Yes, you can use your Three Mobile SIM when travelling. However, depending on where you’re going, you’ll probably have to pay extra for the privilege of doing so. Three is one of the many networks that have reintroduced EU roaming charges after Brexit, so you’ll be charged to use your Three SIM anywhere in the EU.

To find out more, check out our guide on Three international roaming charges.

What happens at the end of a Three Mobile SIM only contract?

When you’re nearing the end of your Three Mobile contract, Three will contact you to let you know when you’ll be able to switch to another deal. While you can continue on the same contract, it’s a good idea to shop around to see if there’s a better deal out there for you. Three Mobile will probably recommend a selection of deals. But since upgrade options direct from a network are usually on the pricier side, we’d recommend comparing SIM only deals to make sure you’re getting good value for money.

Can I keep my mobile phone number if I switch to a Three Mobile SIM only deal?

Yes, if you’re with a different provider, you’ll be able to transfer your number across to your new SIM only contract with Three Mobile. Once you’re ready to switch, all you need to do is text PAC to 65075 and you’ll receive a text with your PAC code. 

When you receive your Three SIM through the post, you’ll find instructions on how to give your PAC code to your new network. Three will then transfer your number across to your new phone.

FAQs

Is Three’s 5G good?

Three Mobile’s 5G speeds are among the fastest in the country. And, as it’s now been rolled out across more than 400 towns and cities across the UK, more and more people are able to enjoy fast 5G with Three.

How do I cancel my Three SIM only contract?

When you’re ready to cancel your Three SIM only contract, you can do so by phoning 333 from your Three SIM and notifying them that you want to cancel your contract. You will need to give 30 days’ notice and you may need to pay an early exit fee if your contract hasn’t expired.

Are Three SIM only deals cheaper than mobile phone contracts?

Yes, generally speaking, SIM only deals are almost always cheaper than mobile phone contracts because you’re only paying for the usage without having to pay off the cost of a handset as well. So if you’re happy to continue using your existing handset, you could save a lot of money by opting for a SIM only deal instead.

Do I need an unlocked phone to use a Three SIM?

Yes, if you’re putting your Three SIM into a handset that hasn’t been provided by Three, you’ll need to make sure that it’s unlocked. If your mobile phone is locked, the easiest thing to do is call your current network to ask them to unlock it. To find out more, read our detailed guide on how to unlock your mobile phone.
