No matter what you spend your hard earned cash on these days it seems most things are increasing in price, and at a time when many of us have little spare cash anymore. Today we have the not so good news that certain customers will be getting a Three UK price plan increase.
The UK mobile phone carrier has recently announced that it will be putting up some of its customer’s price plans, and according to Android Central this will be as much as 3.6 percent. The price increases come into force by July 16th but won’t affect all customers of the network. Any customers that join Three after March 8th this year, on a one month SIM only deal, or on a business or pay-as-you-go price plan will not be affected.
For those that are planning on picking up the new Samsung Galaxy S3 next week will continue to pay the price they sign up for, but for other customers that have been with the network for a while will be hit with the higher prices. The price increase will not be applied to any add-ons you may have on your account, and instead is added to your basic tariff price.
The company is saying that their price plans still offer “excellent value for money” and the carrier are still one of the few mobile carriers in the UK that offers unlimited data. Customers that will be affected by the increases will be notified by email, letter, and SMS showing the extra charges they will need to pay, and they begin to take effect from the first bill on or after July 16th.
This is the first time that Three UK has increased their prices on their pay monthly plans, and while price increases are never welcome, at least it is not too high.To find out more head over to Three support pages. Are you a customer of Three and annoyed at the price increases?
