Go Roam in Europe

• If you have a data allowance greater than 12GB, you can use up to 12GB of data each month. If you use 12GB and still have remaining data allowance available, you can continue to use your data, but this is subject to a surcharge – currently 0.3p/MB.
• There are no fair use limits for calls made or texts sent to standard landlines or mobile numbers within our Go Roam in Europe destinations or back to the UK.

Go Roam Around the World

• If you have more than 12GB data included in your allowance, you can use up to 12GB of data each month. If you exceed this 12GB monthly fair use limit for data, your data usage may be blocked in our Go Roam destinations until your next billing period.
• If you have more than 5,000 texts included in your allowance, you can send up to 5,000 texts back to the UK each month from a Go Roam Around the World destination
• If you have 3,000 or more minutes included in your allowance, you can talk for up to 3,000 minutes on calls made to standard UK landlines or mobile numbers each month.
• If you exceed any of these fair use limits for any two months within a rolling 12-month period we have the right to suspend international roaming on your account, meaning you will no longer be able to use your device or allowances abroad. Of course, we will let you know in advance if this is likely to happen.

Go Roam in Europe and Go Roam Around the World

• Go Roam is intended for our UK customers, who are UK residents visiting one of the destinations for short periods, like holidays or business trips. It isn’t designed for people who live abroad or stay for extended periods.
• As such, if you roam exclusively in one or more of our Go Roam destinations (including both Go Roam in Europe and Go Roam Around the World) for any two complete months in a rolling 12-month period, we may suspend international roaming on your account, meaning you will no longer be able to use your phone or device abroad. Of course, well let you know in advance if this is likely to happen.
• If you spend a full month abroad but some of that time is spent in a destination that isn’t included in Go Roam, this fair use policy wont apply.

You can find out more about Go Roam at three.co.uk/go- roam. And just so you know, we reserve the right to extend, withdraw or modify the terms of Go Roam and/or the destinations of service included at any time.

What about destinations not covered by Go Roam – how much will it cost to use my phone there?
It’s important to remember that the allowances included in your Simply Business Plan are for calls and texts to standard UK numbers, not international numbers (unless you’re calling or texting an international number within our Go Roam in Europe destinations, while roaming within a Go Roam in Europe destination). Our international charges for calling or texting vary depending on (1) where you are and (2) where the person you are calling or texting is located. The relevant international costs to call or text outside of our Go Roam destinations are listed below. The cost of data use abroad (when not in a Go Roam destination) is set out below (please note, the Bands are different for data use).

To see the roaming rates you’ll be charged when in a specific country, use the table on page 12 to identify the band that the country you’re going to falls within, and if you are contacting someone in a different country (on an international number), check which band that destination falls into. Then check the tables below.

Internet and data usage abroad.
When you roam onto other international networks where data roaming is available, the charges below will apply (except if you’re in a Go Roam destination – see page 13 for more information).
The speed and availability of Internet access when abroad will depend on a number of factors, including which network you are roaming on and the services they have available – for example, 4G networks may not be available, in which case you may only be able to enjoy 3G speeds. Other factors which may affect the speeds that you’ll experience include your distance from the nearest mast, your location in a building, local geography, and the type of device you’re using. Certain services such as audio and/or video streaming may be slower than in the UK as a result. For the latest information on which countries you can roam in, and on which networks, visit Three.co.uk/roaming

Data charges are for data sent and received and are calculated to the nearest kilobyte.

Calling and texting abroad from the UK
Your inclusive allowances can’t be used to make calls or send messages to international numbers unless you’re in a Go Roam in Europe destination calling or texting an international number in a Go Roam in Europe destination. If you’re calling abroad, the cost will depend on which band the number you are calling falls within (see table on page 12). If you’re receiving a call from an international number, when in the UK, you won’t be charged to receive that call.

Key things to note

We’ve set out some of the questions that we often get asked, and their answers below.

About your Simply Business Plan allowance.

Plus, if you’re in one of our Go Roam in Europe destinations, you can also use your voice minutes and texts to respectively call and text standard landline and mobile numbers in and between Go Roam in Europe destinations. It’s worth remembering that if you don’t use up your allowance in a month, you lose the unused portion, as it doesn’t roll over to the next month.

How can I use my voice minutes?

• Your unlimited minutes are for voice calls made either within the UK or, for a fixed daily charge, while in a Go Roam destination to any other standard UK mobile (beginning 07 but excluding certain non-standard numbers – see page 8 for details), UK landlines (beginning 01, 02 and 03) and voicemail (retrieved by calling 123 from your mobile in the UK).
• Your unlimited minutes can also be used when roaming within our Go Roam in Europe destinations to call standard landline or mobile numbers in that or any other Go Roam in Europe destination.

How can I use my texts?

• Your unlimited texts are for SMS texts sent within the UK or, for a fixed daily charge, while in a Go Roam destination to a UK standard mobile (beginning 07 but excluding certain non-standard numbers – see page 8 for details) or for SMS texts sent when roaming within a Go Roam in Europe destination to a standard mobile number from a Go Roam in Europe destination. You cannot use your allowance of unlimited texts to send SMS shortcode messages – see page 6 for details regarding these.

Go Binge
Go Binge was available for customers taking our Simply Business Plans with a regular data allowance of 10 GB or above until 30 September 2020. For our customers with Go Binge, it provides you with an unlimited data allowance for streaming video and music from selected partners as long as you’ve some of your standard data allowance remaining. Existing customers will need to upgrade or change their price plan to a higher plan with at least a data allowance of 10 GB or above. You can choose to opt out of Go Binge at any time and use your standard data allowance instead. Go Binge can be used within the UK and our Go Roam destinations (a fair use policy may apply – see Three.co.uk/go-roam), but some services may not be available while roaming due to licensing conditions. Go Binge includes a range of third party services, some of which may require their own subscription to access them, and some additional content, such as adverts, may come out of your regular data allowance. For more details of what’s included and how to access it, see Three.co.uk/go-binge

What do you mean by unlimited?
Unlimited data.
If you have unlimited data as part of your package, there are no hidden fair use policies within the UK. If you’re in a Go Roam destination, you can use up to 12 GB of data each month. Unlimited data should give you all the access to the Internet you would normally need, without worrying about hefty bills.
Unlimited texts and minutes.
There are no hidden fair use policies with our unlimited text or voice allowances when in the UK but in our Go Roam in Europe destinations a fair use limit will apply – we just ask that you use this allowance in accordance with our Terms for Three Services – that is, for personal use only, and not for any illegal, commercial or improper purposes. In addition to these unlimited UK and Go Roam in Europe destination allowances, you also get 5,000 texts and 3,000 voice minutes to use respectively each month, when in a Go Roam Around the World destination.

How do you measure data usage?
Data usage is measured in bytes, this is then aggregated up into large units of measure

• Kilobyte (kB) = 1024 bytes
• Megabyte (MB) = 1024kB
• Gigabyte (GB) = 1024MB
• Terabyte (TB) = 1024GB
• Petabyte (PB) = 1024TB

All current data tariffs are charged and purchased as part of an inclusive allowance and / or as part of an Add-on which provides a specified amount of data you can use for a fixed price. Data usage is calculated based on the amount of data that travels over the  data network. Please note that usage may include re-sent data packets and packets added to control the flow of data over the network.
Data is charged at each full MB level. Any partial MB usage will then be prorated as per the customer plan.

International messaging.
Messages sent from the UK to international destinations, messages sent and received whilst abroad, photo and video messages and alerts received as part of Three’s Alerts services are excluded from your monthly allowance for messages. Your international messaging function is subject to services arrangements with respective networks abroad.
What will I have to pay if I want to cancel my contract?
If you ask to cancel your package before the end of your Minimum Term, you’ll be asked to pay a Cancellation Fee (see ‘Charge for other services’ on page 19). If you are outside of your Minimum Term and want to cancel your contract, there is no Cancellation Fee to pay. For more information call our dedicated business support team.

£150
Less discount of 3%| £150 – £4.50 (3% of £150) = £145.50
Cancellation Fee| £145.50

Is there anything else I should note?
Is there a maximum call duration that I should know about?
We may end any calls that you make that are longer than 2 hours’ duration, in order to prevent you from incurring excessive, inadvertent costs. If this does happen, and you wish to continue your call, please simply redial.

Can I set up a Call Return?
Yes – you can return a call directly to someone who has left you a message by simply keying # at the end of their message. This is called Call Return (returning a call directly from the voicemail service).
When using Call Return, calls are charged at your standard price plan rates or from any inclusive allocation, as though you had made the call directly.
Call Returns will be shown separately on your bill.
Call Return from voicemail may not be made to certain numbers such as international and premium rate numbers. Any call-barring restrictions you have will also apply. You can only return one call directly from the voicemail service. As soon as you finish the call you will be disconnected and will have to redial into voicemail if you wish to continue listening to your voicemail.
If you divert your incoming calls to another number, we’ll charge you for each redirected call. The cost of the redirected call depends on the type of number.

Charging / billing.

• All calls (except calls to shortcode, premium rate numbers and EU roaming calls) are treated as a minimum of one minute. Calls of more than one minute are treated as lasting for their actual duration, with fractions of a second being rounded to the nearest second (this does not apply to some roaming calls, calls to Service Numbers and Special Calls).
• Calls to Service Numbers (starting 084, 087, 09 and 118) are charged differently from other numbers. The Access Charge element of these calls will be treated as a minimum of one minute. If your call lasts less than one minute, your Access Charge will be rounded up to a duration of one minute. For calls of more than one minute, the Access Charge element is treated as lasting for its actual duration, with fractions of a second being rounded to the nearest second. The Service Charge element is set by the company you’re calling, and may comprise (1) a price per minute Service Charge; (2) a price per call Service Charge; (3) a price per call Service Charge plus a price per minute Service Charge (which runs from the start of your call); and (4) a price per call Service Charge plus a price per minute Service Charge (which runs from 60 seconds after the call starts). If the Service Charge includes a price per minute Service Charge, this will be treated as lasting its actual duration (except if the first 60 seconds have been excluded), with fractions of a second being rounded to the nearest second. For example, if you make a call to a service number, where the Service Charge is 10p per minute, which is simply charged at a price per minute rate, and your call lasts 30  seconds, you’ll be charged a total of 70p for this call, as the Access Charge element will be rounded up to a duration of one minute at 65p plus 5p for the 30 seconds of call time for the Service Charge element.
• Each individual charge on your bill is shown with VAT excluded (where relevant), and is rounded up or down to the nearest tenth of a penny to make it easier to read. This rounding process means that the total charges you see on our bill summary page may not always be identical to the ‘Total due by’ charge you see on the front page of your bill. Don’t worry, this is normal and you’re not being overcharged or undercharged. The actual amount you need to pay is the one shown on your bill’s front page, next to ‘Total due by’.

Spend caps.
We ask all new and upgrading customers at point of sale if they want to set a spend cap on their monthly bills. If they choose to do so, the cap will be applied to their account within 7 days of the request. The spend cap can be set or changed by the customer at any time – visit three.co.uk/control-your- spend

Spend limits.
We’ve automatically applied limits to the amount you spend on third party digital content and premium rate calls (including directory enquiries) and messages (including SMS shortcode messages). The limits are £40 per single payment transaction and the cumulative sum of £240 for payment transactions made over the course of a calendar month. These limits are set by law and can’t be changed. For more information, including confirmation of what types of transactions are affected, visit Three.co.uk/spendlimits
VAT invoices.
VAT invoices are issued to all our Simply Business customers as standard.
First month pro-rated.
Unless otherwise stated, your first month’s allowance and charge for your price plan or Add-on will depend on when in the month you join Three or when you decide to select your Add-on. Whenever that is, you can start using your allowance for your price plan or Add-on straight away. We’ll work out an appropriate allowance and charge to take you to the end of the first month. After that, you simply pay the standard monthly recurring charge or Add-on charge for a full month’s allowance.
Recurring payment discount.
New customers can only join pay monthly plans on Direct Debit and our plans’ prices include a discount for paying by this efficient means. Direct Debit is brilliant for you as payment will be taken automatically and your account will not be suspended if you forget to pay. It is also the most efficient method for us. You should maintain your Direct Debit whilst you stay as a pay monthly customer. You can change your bank details at any time, just let us know.
We cannot prevent you from cancelling your Direct Debit, and if you do, you are still required to pay your bills by the due date. We will retain your discount if you give us any of the following means of payment, provided that you simply allow us to store your selected payment method so that we can charge you on your billing date each month. Don’t worry, you can swap these details at any time and on multiple occasions. If you do not permit us to store payment details you will lose the recurring payment discount.
You can choose any of the following given means of payment. Simply allow us to store your payment details and you will remain eligible for the £5 monthly recurring discount.
