The One Plan aims to include enough calls, texts and internet usage for virtually anyone at a simple low cost price of £25 per month.

The One Plan is available as a SIM only contract and provides:
  • 2000 minutes of calls to any network
  • 5000 minutes to other 3 users
  • 5000 inclusive text messages
  • 1GB of internet data
  • Free Skype to Skype calls
  • Free Windows Live Messenger
  • Free Twitter usage
You won't find a more competitive or simple SIM only deal from any other mobile network for the same affordable price.




What Is A SIM Only Contract?


SIM only contracts allows you to change tariffs or join a network simply by changing your SIM card rather than changing your phone. This is ideal if you already have a handset you like, or you want to change your existing network or tariff.

Since no phone is supplied and you're not paying for the cost of it, you benefit from receiving more inclusive calls, texts and internet usage each month compared to contracts that come with a handset.

SIM only contracts are available on a 1 month or 12 month contract.

When you apply for any of the SIM card only packages you’ll be given everything you needed to get started quickly and easily. This includes those who are switching over to the 3 network, reactivating an old phone, or even visiting the UK. All it takes is to pop your new SIM card into your 3G handset and you’ll be ready to go!

Why Choose SIM Only Contracts?

Better value: Since you are not covering the cost of a new handset, greater value is placed into your monthly inclusive calls, texts and internet browsing. Get more for your money!

Greater freedom and flexibility: If you decided you wanted to change to a different minutes/ text package, or even if you wanted to cancel altogether, it’s easy to do so with 3 Mobile SIM only deals. All it takes is for you to give 30 days notice, which is the shortest contract deal available – you won’t be tied down longer than you need to!

Greater Choice: When it comes to choosing the right contract deal, there is as much flexibility and choice when it comes to SIM only as with traditional contracts – if not more. Choose your SIM deal according to the monthly cost and the amount of inclusive minutes and texts: there is a deal to suit everyone.

Easy to Apply for: If you’ve got a less than perfect credit score, then applying for one a SIM only contract is a lot easier than applying for a standard 12-24 month contract (though this depends on each individual application).

Keep Your Existing Phone and Number: If you want to save yourself the effort of letting all your friends and family know you’ve changed you’re number then SIM only contracts can make it simple – just keep your old phone and your old number for a smooth transition! You will be advised when when your old number will be transferred to 3 Mobile.

Getting Started With SIM Only

If you’ve already got a phone then the first step will be to make sure it isn’t currently ‘locked’. If you originally got it with a network other than 3 Mobile then you need it to be unlocked to make sure it accepts our SIM.

When you receive your new SIM card, just insert it into your phone then turn it on. If your phone is locked then the screen will display something like ‘blocked’, ‘barred’ or ‘SP lock’. This means your SIM is not going to work just yet, but it’s simple to get things going.

Just call up the network provider of your phone or visit them in a store. They will unlock the phone for you, though bear in mind that some may charge a small fee for this. Once your phone has been unlocked you’re good to go!


How Do I Keep My Current Number?

One of the great things about 3 Mobile SIM only deals is that you keep your current phone number as well as your phone.

There are a few steps to take if you want to keep your old phone number:
  • Call up your current network provider for a code known as a PAC or Port Authorisation Code.
  • When you are ordering your new SIM from 3 Mobile, make sure you enter this PAC code as well as your current phone number.
  • We will then let you know when your current number will be activated.
  • Make sure to order within 30 days, as your PAC code will expire after this time and you’ll have to get a new one.

How Do I Apply For SIM Only?

It’s simple to sign up – all it takes is a quick online application. Just view the SIM only tariffs, select the SIM you’re interested in and go to the checkout. You’ll be given the option to keep your own number, and simply enter your PAC into the box.

All it takes is a credit or debt card to be taken through the checkout process, and you’ll need to enter a few details such as your name, address and date of birth. It takes just a few minutes to set up your monthly payment process and you’ll be good to go!

And, if you really can’t wait to try out your new SIM card, you’ll be pleased to know that most of deliveries are sent out the next working day.
