3 are offering a brand new deal that is convenient and cheap; i.e. perfect for student life style. For a starter it is merely £10! Need I say any more? Nonetheless I shall elaborate. Pay As You Go on 3 has been revamped, and has ‘good deal’ written all over it. The main selling point for their new stance is that it includes a decent amount of internet without having to be on a monthly contract (a normal top up with 3 gives you 150 MB of internet anyway). The way to do this is also straight forward: - you simply convert your credit into an Add-on.
It is so simple because you can choose what sort of add on’s you wish to use. The flexibility and choice that is available to you makes 3 the student dream deal. For just a tenner you can get 3000 texts, 100 minutes and 500MB of internet. And for each increase of £5 you get extra add ons; £25 equals 3000 texts, 500 minutes and 1000 MB of internet. William Ripley, Director of Voice at 3 said “All in One gives our PAYG
customers marketing beating value for £10. Easy access mobile internet is at the core of this PAYG offering.” Their targeting is definitely aimed at young people and is suited to students and the thrifty lifestyle.
Not only do 3 have internet deals, but they offer low priced international calling. This can cost as little as 2p a minute and all you have to do is put a three digit number in front of the number you are calling.
With nearly all bases covered, you now need to check out 3’s offers for phones. They have all the new Smart phones starting from £50 with the different range of contracts and PAYG. For a cheaper option you could go for one of the 3G handsets from as little as £19.99.
To obtain the new PAYG deals you need to either join up to 3 or if you are already part of their network call 444 and select the Add-on option. There is also an internet section of their website which you can join if you have a 3 phone/contract. But as always shop around for whatever suits your needs!
