Three MBB006 Mobile Broadband Pans

There’s nothing worse than losing your Wi-Fi signal when you go out of range. So give your tablet or laptop legs and stay connected online wherever you go. This price guide will give you all the pricing information that you’ll need if you’re a Mobile Broadband customer with Three on one of our current plans. We’ve set out what you’ll get each month as part of your plan, the cost of any services used outside your allowance, and for any Additional Services you may use (including international charges). It’s basically where you’ll find all the relevant information for the pricing of your plan.

Your Internet with Legs Pay Monthly package or SIM Plan
We like to do things differently here at Three. We’re the only network to let their customers use their plan’s allowances at no extra cost in 71 destinations (with more to come) around the world with Feel At Home (see page 11). All of our pay monthly packages include a device (whether a tablet, mobile home, or dongle) and an allowance of data units that you can use in the UK or our Feel At Home destinations. If you sign up for one of our SIM-only Internet with legs plans, you’ll still receive an allowance of data units, which can be used in the UK or our Feel At Home destinations (with some limits – see page 11). Where and when you use these data units is up to you. How this works and your plan options are set out below.

Three-MBB006-Mobile-Broadband-Plans-fig-1

Our 24-month pay monthly tablet packages
With our pay monthly tablet packages, you’re in control. Once you’ve chosen your tablet you can then choose how much you want to pay upfront and your data allowance, which you can use in the UK and our Feel At Home destinations. Your contract will last a minimum of 24 months, and you’ll need to give us 30 days’ notice to end this.

Our 1-, 12- or 24-month pay monthly
Mobile Wi-Fi, HomeFi, or dongle packages With our pay monthly Mobile Wi-Fi, HomeFi, or dongle packages you’re in control. Once you’ve chosen your device, you can then choose how much you want to pay upfront, how long your contract will last (you’ll need to give us 30 days’ notice to end this), and your data allowance, which you can use in the UK and our Feel At Home destinations.

Our Internet with Legs SIM plans
Our pay monthly SIM Plans are available on a choice of a 1-month rolling, 12-month, or 24-month minimum term. You just need to choose how much data you want, which you can then use either in the UK or in one of our Feel At Home destinations (subject to some limits – see page 11) and the minimum term of your contract and you’re ready to go. You’ll need to give us 30 days’ notice to end your contract. Available only to eligible upgrading customers.

Control your spend
On all our pay monthly Internet with legs plans, featured in this Price Guide, you can control your spending if you’re worried about going over your monthly data allowance. You can switch on a “block” in your My3 account, which will prevent you from using data outside of your allowance, for which you’d normally be charged. You can change the settings to switch this on and off multiple times each month. If you’re using your SIM in a device that can also make and receive calls and texts, please note that these won’t be blocked. This is because the charges for these are always outside of your allowance on these plans so won’t be caught by this block.

You can also block calls to non-standard UK landlines (for example, to numbers like 0845 or those starting 09) and international calls, as well as blocking texts to shortcodes, for things like competitions, companies or social media in your My3. It’s really easy to switch these blocks on or off – just log into your My3 account. Then under Allowances, select Control Your Spending. You can then choose how you want to control your spending from the options available. Additional Services & benefits for our Pay Monthly & SIM plan, customers, These are the additional, optional, or extra services you can use in addition to your plan’s inclusive data allowance.

MBB006-Mobile-Broadband-Plans-fig-6

One of the features of our new plans is that if your device can make and receive calls and texts, you can also use your new SIM to make calls and send texts at the rates set out on page 7 onwards. Please be aware that we may change or introduce new charges for our Additional Services, including services outside of your allowance. If we do, we’ll publish any changes on our website. If any Add-ons are affected that have a recurring charge, we’ll let you know at least 14 days before the charge changes. If we do make a change to an Additional Service, and you’re not happy with it, you can cancel the Add- on(s) or stop using the Additional Services or Services Outside of Your Allowance. If you’d prefer to end your contract instead, a Cancellation Fee may be payable (see page 14).

Data usage outside of your allowance

On the pay monthly and SIM plans set out in this Price Guide if you run out of data, you can just continue to use data outside of your allowance, and you’ll just be charged for what you use at 1p/MB in the UK (roaming rates in non-Feel At Home destinations and in your Feel At Home destinations will depend on where you are).

What short-term Add-ons are available?
If, as a pay monthly or SIM customer, you find yourself needing an increased data allowance in the UK or in one of our Feel At Home destinations and you prefer to have a fixed data allowance to use, why not choose one of our short- term Add-ons below? You can only buy one of each, each bill cycle, and it will last until your next bill cycle when your plan’s data allowance refreshes.

Add-on| Number of Data Units for use in the UK or one of our Feel At Home destinations| Price
---|---|---
1 GB| 1,024| £5
5 GB| 5,120| £15
10 GB| 10,240| £20

Go Binge
Watch your favorite shows from Netflix and TVPlayer and listen to your favorite music on DEEZER and SoundCloud without worrying about running out of data.

Add-on name| Data Units Allowance| When is this Add-on available?| Monthly price (rolling)
---|---|---|---
Go Binge| Unlimited (as long as you have standard data allowance remaining).| • If you joined, upgraded or changed your price plan on or after 6 July 2017 to one of our new Mobile Broadband plans with a data allowance of 5 GB or more, Go Binge will automatically be added to your plan.

• If you joined or upgraded to one of our new Mobile Broadband plans before 6 July 2017, you can add Go Binge by changing to a higher price plan. The new price plan must be an Advanced plan with at least 5 GB data allowance.

Your Internet with legs

Pay As You Go plan
Pay As You Go shouldn’t be complicated. That’s not right at all. It should be flexible and simple to use so you can get the most out of your tablet, Mobile Wi-Fi, HomeFi, or dongle. Perfect if you love the control and peace of mind you get with an allowance, but with the freedom of Pay As You Go. We introduced a new Data Reward Pay As You Go plan on 3 February 2016. If you’re on our new Data Reward plan, you get 200 MB of data free every month when you register with us at Three.co.uk/freedata. Your 200 MB of free data is applied straight away and lasts for 30 days. Any unused data will be lost at the end of your 30 days. Each month, you’ll get another 200 MB of free data automatically applied to your account to enjoy. If you would like to get a Data Reward SIM, you can do so online at Three.co.uk/datareward

Top-ups
To get credit on your Pay As You Go account, you just need to top up. Once activated, Top-ups never expire. Your My3 account is the easiest and most convenient way to top up and can be used in both the UK and our Feel At Home destinations at no extra cost. Once you have set it up, simply register your credit or debit card and you’ll be able to top up whenever you like. Plus, with My3 you can see exactly how you are using your credit or any allowance. You can top up in the following amounts: You can find out more on how to top up at Three.co.uk/topup. Please note that not all Add-ons and Top-ups are available through all channels – for example, some may only be available online or by calling Customer Services.

Great value Add-ons
Running out of data shouldn’t stop you from enjoying your tablet. Just pop some more credit on your account and maximize your Top-up with one of our great value Add-ons for use within 30 days. What’s more, you can also use your Add-on’s data allowance to get online abroad at no extra cost in 71 destinations worldwide with Feel At Home (see page 11). We’ve set out below how this works.

You will be eligible to register for free 200 MB every month*.

|

These data Add-ons are compatible with our existing Pay As You Go Mobile Broadband plans.

Note: The free 200 MB of data requires registration and is only available on our new Data Reward plans. It is available on the date of registration each month. You can only register up to five SIMs and if you have another data allowance in addition to your free 200 MB, your free 200 MB data will be used first. Your free 200 MB data can be used in Feel At Home destinations.
Note: Expires midnight after the day you bought it or if you use up the data – whatever comes first.

More about our Add-ons
How long do Add-ons last? Add-ons are valid for 30 days from the date and time you activate them apart from the 500 MB data Add-on which lasts for one day. Add-ons need to be activated within 90 days of purchase.

What happens to any remaining allowance when my Add-on has expired?
Once an Add-on expires, any unused allowance of units will be lost and can’t be rolled over to another Add-on.

Can I cancel an Add-on?
Once an Add-on has been activated it can’t be cancelled.

Can I buy more than one Add-on at a time?
Generally, only one of each Add-on can be active on your account at any one time, but if you’ve used all of your Add-on allowances, you can then activate another Add-on.

How do I find out more about converting a Top-up to an Add-on?
You can find out how to convert a Top-up to an Add-on online at Three.co.uk/support/top-up

What are the costs outside of my allowance?
If you use data outside of your allowance, without buying an Add-on, or if you can use your device to make calls or send messages, the charges for these activities are set out below:

Outside of allowance – UK use	Cost (per MB/minute/message)
Data (per MB)	1p*

SMS shortcodes are a type of text message sent to a 5 or 6-digit number that normally begins with a 6, 7 or 8. They are often used to pay for new features in apps, to donate to charity, to enter competitions and to download games and ringtones. They are classed as a type of Premium Rate Service. The cost will vary with the promoter’s terms and conditions (which should always be checked to find out the exact cost of sending the message). SMS shortcode messages will not come out of any inclusive allowance.

How much does it cost to call the Directory Services?
There is a host of directory enquiry services available, all of which have different phone numbers and different charges. The table here only shows a fraction of the directory services available (which is changing frequently) – go to Three.co.uk/nts for the latest details. The cost of calling a number starting 118 is now split into an Access Charge (set by us, at 45p per minute, with a 1-minute minimum charge) and a Service Charge (set by the company you’re calling – they’ll tell you this).

Prices for Three directory services (including VAT)

National 118333 – multi-search| 45p per minute Access Charge (1-minute minimum charge) + £1.50 to connect + (after the first minute) a Service Charge of £1.50 per minute.
International 118313 – multi-search| 45p per minute Access Charge (1-minute minimum charge) + £4.45 to connect + (after the first minute) a Service Charge of £2.57 per minute.
Directory Services for people with disabilities 195 – multi-search| Free to call 195 for Three’s registered users.

If the 195 operator then connects you to a number you’ve searched for, your call will be charged at the standard rate for your price plan or will come out of any available allowance you have. Free text message with the number(s) you’ve requested.

What if I want to use my device or SIM abroad?
International Roaming is switched on automatically on your account, so you can use your SIM abroad, including in Feel At Home destinations straight away. On our Pay As You Go plans you’ll need to activate your SIM in the UK first.

With Feel At Home, international data roaming is not subject to additional charges if you’re using your plan or an Add-on allowance to get online from a Feel At Home destination (see bottom of page). Pay As You Go customers can choose to use either their top-up credit or an Add-on at no extra cost in our Feel at Home destinations. As our mobile broadband plans do not include voice or text allowances, you won’t be able to make calls or send texts back to the UK at no extra cost from our Feel At Home destinations on these plans. In countries not covered by Feel At Home, or for calls and texts made abroad on these plans, additional costs will be incurred.

Getting online abroad
When you roam onto other international networks where data roaming is available, the charges below will apply (except if you’re in a Feel At Home destination – see pages 11–12 for more information). The speed and availability of Internet access when abroad will depend on several 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 that 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.

Band	Countries	Cost per MB
Data Band 1	Monaco	10p
Data Band 2	Benin, Botswana, Cyprus (North), India, Ivory Coast, Japan,
Philippines, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Yemen	£3
Data Band 3	Rest of the World excluding Feel At Home destinations – see
page 10. Maritime Networks (Ships, Ferries, Cruise Liners), Airlines	£6

Certain services such as audio and/or video streaming may be slower as a result than in the UK. For the latest information on which countries you can roam in and on which networks, visit Three.co.uk/roaming
To help you manage your roaming costs when you’re traveling, we’ll text you information about roaming rates for each country you visit. We’ve also set up a worldwide data roaming limit of £42.50 to stop you from spending too much. If you’d prefer you can have this limit removed by contacting Three Customer Services. If you need to contact Three Customer Services while abroad, call +44 7782 333 333 (this call will be charged at your standard roaming rate). Calls made from abroad to your voicemail will also be charged at standard roaming rates. Go to Three.co.uk/roaming for more information. Data charges are for data sent and received and are calculated to the nearest kilobyte.

Making calls and texts while abroad

If your device allows you to make calls or send messages, and if used abroad to make calls or send texts, you will be charged as below (remember, as your mobile broadband plan does not include voice or text units, you will not be able to use your device to make calls or send texts back to the UK from Feel At Home destinations at no extra cost). To see the roaming rates you’ll be charged for calls and texts (device allowing), you’ll need to know (1) the Band that the country you’re in is in, and (2) which Band the country you’re trying to contact falls within. Check the table below to find out:

It’s also free to receive calls, texts, photo messages, and video messages when in a Feel At- Home destination (if your device allows these features).

Is there any other information about Feel At Home that I should know?

Feel At Home is intended for our UK customers who are UK residents or have stable links with the UK (e.g., full-time employment or study in the UK), who are visiting one of the Feel At Home destinations for short periods, like holidays or business trips. It isn’t designed for people who live abroad or stay for extended periods.
If you roam exclusively in a Feel At Home Around the World destination for any 2 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 device abroad. Of course, we will let you know in advance if this is likely to happen.
To ensure all customers can benefit from Feel At Home in Europe with roaming at no extra cost, we also reserve the right to apply a surcharge in case of abusive use. To help us to detect possible abuse of Feel At Home in Europe, we may monitor your usage and presence. We’ll look at the balance of your roaming and domestic (UK) activity over 4 months: if you spend the majority of your time abroad and consume more abroad than at home over the 4 months, we have the right to add a small surcharge to your usage.
This surcharge will be capped at 3.25p/min, 1.01p/SMS, and 0.50p/MB (except if you are roaming in the following countries in which case it will be 0.41p/MB, 2.70p/min and 0.85p/SMS: Aland Islands, French Guiana, Gibraltar, Guadeloupe, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Martinique, Mayotte, Norway, Réunion and Switzerland). We will cease to apply this surcharge as soon as our data usage and presence monitoring no longer indicate a risk of abuse or anomalous use of Feel at Home in Europe roaming.
Before this surcharge is applied, we’ll send you an alert message two weeks in advance, allowing you to modify your roaming behavior. In the absence of a change, we may apply a surcharge for
any further roaming use. Any surcharge will cease to be applied when our Feel at Home in Europe monitoring indicates that the majority of your time or usage is spent in the UK.
You can stream and connect to VPNs or use file sharing (like peer-to-peer download services) but you will find this is slower and the quality may not be as good as in the UK.
As we’ve said, all of our Internet with Legs plans include a set of data allowances, made up of a specified number of data units that can be used in the UK or our Feel At Home destinations. If you’re roaming in a Feel At Home Around the World destination, you can use a portion of your monthly data allowance or PAYG plan, up to a maximum of 12,288 data units (12 GB). For example, if your PAYG Add-on has a data allowance greater than 12 GB, you can use up to 12 GB if you’re on a PAYG plan of that allowance each month to get online. If you exceed your 12 GB fair use limit data allowance in a Feel At Home Around the World destination, your data usage will be blocked until your next billing period.
If you exceed this limit for any 2 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 allowance abroad. Of course, we will let you know in advance if this is likely to happen.
If you’re roaming in a Feel At Home in Europe destination, there is a Fair Use Data Limit of 13,312 data units (13 GB) or 12,288 data units (12 GB) if you’re on a PAYG plan with an applicable Add-on giving you an allowance. This allows you to use up to 13 GB or 12 GB (depending on your plan) if you’re on a PAYG plan of your data allowance in our Feel At Home in Europe destinations, at no extra cost. If you use 12 GB if you’re on a PAYG plan while roaming as part of Feel At Home in Europe, and still have a data allowance available, you can continue to use your data, but this is subject to a surcharge of 0.50p/MB except if you are roaming in the following countries in which case it will be 0.41p/MB: Aland Islands, French Guiana, Gibraltar, Guadeloupe, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Martinique, Mayotte, Norway, Réunion, Switzerland.

What about destinations not covered by Feel At Home – how much will it cost to use my phone there?
The cost of data use abroad (when not in a Feel At Home destination) is set out on page 11 (please note, the ‘Bands’ are different for data use) 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 Feel At Home destinations are listed below. To see the roaming rates you’ll be charged when in a specific country, use the table on page 10 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.

Key things to note
We’ve set out some of the questions that we often get asked, and their answers below. We’ve also explained in more detail about your plan including how you can use it in Feel At Home destinations.

About your plan

What does my plan include?

If you have a package, that includes a device,
it includes a monthly allowance of data units, that convert automatically on use into megabytes of data, whether used in the UK or a Feel At Home destination.
If you sign up to one of our new Internet with legs SIM Plans, it includes a monthly allowance of data units that convert automatically on use into megabytes of data – whether used within the UK or a Feel At Home destination.
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.
After your monthly allowance of data units is used up, prices for use outside of your allowance for additional data as well as for any calls or messages are shown on page 7.

How can I use my data units?

You can use your data units in the UK or in any of our Feel At Home destinations, as set out on page 10.
You can also use your data units to set up a Personal Hotspot if you want to connect more than one device to the Internet at once, when in the UK. You can use any or all of your allowance for this purpose.
To help you see the value you’re getting with our Pay

If you have Go Binge as part of your package (having joined or upgraded your account or changed your price plan to an eligible plan on or after 6 July 2017) on a plan that includes a data allowance of at least 5 GB, or
(where available) have added the Go Binge Add-on to your account, Go Binge provides you with an unlimited data unit allowance that can only be used for streaming video and music from selected partners as long as you have some of your standard data allowance remaining. Speeds are restricted to standard definition. If you’re looking to stream or download content at higher speeds/quality, you can choose to opt out of Go Binge at any time and use your standard data allowance instead.

Go Binge is available for use within the UK and our Feel At Home destinations (a fair use policy may apply – see Three.co.uk/feelathome), but some services may not be available while roaming due to licensing conditions. Traffic optimization applies – see three.co.uk/trafficsense. 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 see three.co.uk/go-binge

Add-on	Per unit cost
1 GB	0.488p
5 GB	0.293p
10 GB	0.195p

Do you break down the cost of the data units that I get as part of my package anywhere?
Yes – you’ll see a breakdown of the exact cost of the units included within your package’s allowances on page 2 of your monthly bill in the ‘Answering your questions’ section titled ‘About your allowance’s unit costs’ – we believe this helps you understand the value you’re getting from your package. The number of data units that each package is comprised of is also set out on the relevant pages of this Price Guide. 1 data unit = 1 MB of data For example, the data unit cost for the 5 GB mobile data, 12-month SIM Plan costing £13 a month is: 0.254p per megabyte. These aren’t charges for going over your allowance, these units are included in your plan.
They also don’t include any one-off reductions, discounts, or any Add-on allowances. We have set out the per-unit cost for our pay monthly Add-ons in the table below.

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 ‘What do you charge for Other Services’ on page 14). 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 Three Customer Services.

Is there anything else I should note?
Depending on your device, you may be able to use it to make calls and send texts. If so, you should note the following: 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

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 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 50p for this call, as the Access Charge element will be rounded up to one minute at 45p plus 5p for the 30 seconds of call time for the Service Charge element.
Each charge on your bill is shown with VAT included (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 Limits
With effect from 13 December 2017, we’ve automatically applied limits to the amount you spend on third-party digital content and premium rate calls (including directory inquiries) and messages (including SMS shortcode messages). The spend limits are £40 per single payment transaction and a cumulative sum of £240 for payment transactions made over 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: These plans are for your personal
use only and are not intended for commercial use – this means that if you signed up for one of these plans on or after 18 August 2016, we’re afraid we will not be able to issue you with a VAT invoice concerning this account. If you do need a VAT invoice for your mobile account, please have a look at one of our Business Plans.

If you joined us before 18 August 2016, you may be able to request a VAT invoice subject to a few simple verification checks – please note that Three will only issue a tax invoice on these plans where it is obliged to do so, by VAT regulations. You can make this request by calling 333 free from Three phones, or 0333 338 1001 from any other phone (standard call rate applies), and selecting the Billing option. First month pro-rated: 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 line rental or Add-on charge for a full month’s allowance.

Recurring payment method: 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 canceling 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 given 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 details and you will remain eligible for the £5 monthly recurring discount.

Increases to your Monthly Charge
The Monthly Charge for your package is the minimum price you agree to pay us for Three Services provided to you under this agreement, for the Minimum Term. Each May, your Monthly Charge will increase by an amount up to the January RPI rate (published each February), unless you’re on a SIM plan. If the January RPI rate is negative, there will be no charge to your Monthly Charge in May. For example, This does not apply if you are a SIM-only customer. If the January RPI rate announcement in February is negative, there will be no increase applied to your Monthly Charge in May of that year.

Monthly Charge up to April 2018| Monthly Charge from May 2018
