This is a story of my time with 3. It all started back in December when 1 day went into The Link and came out with a V3x on VT&T700... fine so far. However i soon started to wish i had gone for a N70 so i swapped it over... again fine so far.
Now this is where the problems started!.
Downloaded the TV app fine and it said £10 for 30 days to i accepted and ran it no problems. 3 days later it would not open so i phoned CS and asked them what should i do. They said to uninstall the app and download it again. I asked well will i be charged for this to which they said no.
Uninstalled..... downloaded..... yep you guessed it, i was charged again!. Back on the phone to CS and they said it will be credited to my next bill but i need to pay the £51.05 first for them to give me the £10 back (Should have only been £41.05),
I needed an intel iMac so sold the phone and kept the contract running and used it in a LG 8120 i had lying around.
So now on to the last 3 weeks and they have been a nightmare!. Ben will agree im sure because i have been having a right go about 3 to him via texts ;) :p :D.
Texts not getting through, error messages when browsing, calls not connecting or dropping all the time and a bad screeching noise during 1 call.
Yesterday i had to send people 3 texts of the same message to make sure they got through and the calls were dropping nearly all the time.
Today was the last straw!. In town where i normally get very good signal i was getting NO signal AT ALL!. Not a single bar of coverage and then all of a sudden after 2hrs i was getting 2G but no trace of 3G anywhere.
So i will be phoning 3 to cancel my contract because i just want out of it now. I will either go on Vodafone or Orange with PAYG because they offer good deals that are flexible for my needs. If i only want to topup £5 i can and seing as i get sent many review phones to use there is no point me running a contract.
So long 3
