While I'm at it, 3UK's roaming deal is a bunch of bollocks too

Kudos to Vodafone for actually ponying up the balls to charge users just £2 for the first 25mb of roaming data. Yes I’m flipping annoying that charging reverts to £1/meg after that amount, but at least we’re getting somewhere. £2 is highly reasonable in the context of Three’s pricing charges.

By default, 3UK insist you spunk £1.28 per megabyte. Period. No ifs, no buts, no bundles. £1.28. And then they’ll happily switch you off after they’ve taken £45 from you in a calendar month, so as to try and, you know, look as though they care for your wellbeing.

This, by the way, from the network that claims it’s the best go-to operator for smartphones in the United Kingdom, offering ‘truly unlimited data’. Until, that is, you go abroad and the cash spunking begins.

Thanks but no thanks Three. It’s utterly ridiculous.
