Those prices look pretty good.   Thanks for sharing.

I was quite tempted by one of their rates for my mobile which comes out of contract this month (I own the phone anyhow). 
The one thing that swung the balance for me personally, is I just got notification of Vodafone's recent introduction of OneNumber for use for free with Alexa.   I think Vodafone are the only network atm which do this.   If it wasn't for that, then I would be thinking of switching mobile provider.   I'm not quite ready yet to get ride of my landline dsl, but I bet there are many who are.

The 25% off promotional period ended on 28th August, just before midnight. Been reading it ran for 14 days, from 14th. So sadly no longer available, but certainly good value for those who managed to pick it up given it is a 1 month plan and 5G will be launching soon (Three is the parent).

Those speeds on Three seem to be the exception rather than the rule, sadly.  Must be a good area.  I wouldn't trust it to remain consistent, its not been remotely comparable to FTTC for me.

Not available for existing customers, but the terms and conditions don't say anything to suggest it wouldn't be available to another person in the same household, who's not an existing customer.

A 3 SIM in a decent smartphone would answer that.

If you want to test decent equipment, please let me know, I have FTTC being reinstalled on the 4th October, long story, will write it up and post if anyone is interested.

So the Huawei B525s-23a that Amazon sell is not suitable for 3 UK  :lol:
Uhh... The B525s-23a IS suitable for Three, just not Carrier Aggregation using CA_1A-3A. Three also has CA using CA_3A-20A, and I have experienced that as I previously owned a 23a. I believe CA_3A-20A is more common than CA_A1-3A is since 2100 MHz (Band 1) has not been refarmed extensively to my knowledge.

Thank you for writing-up your experience of 4G mobile broadband. To me, someone who has not researched the topic, it seems as if there are numerous pit-falls for the unwary.
