3G Mobile Phones Be first on ThreePay

ThreePay from 3 offers Pay-As-You-Go customers the same great value price plans it already offers its contract customers, along with the unique same price, anytime, any network voice minutes.

ThreePay customers can chose from three top-up vouchers, all of which have a validity period of 30 days from activation. To ensure continued service, you must purchase and activate a ThreePay voucher at least every 30 days.

Top-up voucher *	Top-up choice	Voice call minutes	Text messages	Value allowance **
£15	VideoTalk	100	0	£1.50
	VideoText	25	100	£1.50
£25	VideoTalk	500	0	£1.50
	VideoText	50	500	£1.50
£35	VideoTalk	750	0	£1.50
	VideoText	75	750	£1.50

This combination will save money for most typical Pay-As-You-Go customers currently spending more than £15 per month with another network operator.

The launch of Pay-As-You-Go is in line with 3's strategy of broadening its offer and introducing the maximum number of consumers to video-calling. With ThreePay, 3 is now addressing 65% of the UK mobile market instead of the 35% it had been reaching previously with just its contract proposition.

ThreePay

ThreePay offers:

• Anytime, any network calls from 5p per minute
• No peak rate penalty
• No premium to call other networks
• No minimum call charges
• No penalty charges for first minutes of calls

With ThreePay you can choose between VideoTalk and VideoText top-ups.

VideoTalk & VideoText top-ups give you the same unbeatable value for voice calls as 3's pay monthly price plans.

Customers can purchase a voucher and choose to top-up their voice minutes or text message allowance when they activate the voucher. They simply choose either the VideoTalk or VideoText options when they call to activate the voucher.

Every time you top up your ThreePay handset you automatically get an extra £1.50 credit toward any 3 service, including video calling, video clips, downloads and services.

ThreePay handsets do not include the 1 month free content or free email allowances included in 3's VideoTalk and VideoText monthly price plans.

Vouchers can be activated any time up to 90 days from purchase and must be activated to be used by calling '444' from the ThreePay handset.

Topped-up minutes or texts are valid for 30 days from the date of activation.

Important Information: ThreePay is different to normal pay as you go handsets and tariffs. To ensure continued service, you must purchase and activate a ThreePay voucher at least every 30 days. The ThreePay handsets are priced with this condition in mind and as a result surcharges will apply if you do not purchase and activate at least one additional ThreePay voucher within 3 months of the date of first accessing the 3G Network, as per our terms and conditions.

3 is new

3 is a brand new network using a brand new technology. There will be service limitations at launch and there will undoubtedly be some glitches from time to time. Thanks to roaming agreements with other UK networks, you can make and receive voice and picture calls in over 98% of the UK. The 3 video network currently covers 73% of the UK population but please note that you will not be able to use video or audio download services while roaming.

You should also be aware that some 3G handsets are not quite as small as the latest lesser specified 2G handsets and that battery life isn't as good either - the LG 8110 is the exception and is a very small 3G video phone with a great battery life. Although this isn't surprising considering the superb large colour screens of all the current 3G video handsets. Importantly though, all 3 ThreePay mobile phones come with a 7 day money back guarantee so that you can return for a refund if you're not happy for any reason.
