Just got a note today from Three.
2 changes :-
From October £1 a month extra for paper billing.
Also, and more of an issue for me - "From 23rd September 2008, any
calls lasting 60 seconds or less will be rounded up to a minute. After
the first minute, you'll get charged for the rest of the call per
second. There's no change for calls made before 23rd September 2008."
"If you have any questions, you can find the answers at three.co.uk/
billingchanges"
Sounds like a rip off to me....


Three are copying the other networks who have already done it,
in response to losing roaming revenue.

I expected it from the others, it's a shame Three who have tried
to be different are now following suit

Assuming 3 let me cancel the contract because of this, am I free to keep my
phone? Also, how would one go about keeping my number as well as cancelling?

They should let you cancel (any T&C that said they could unilaterally jack
up prices during the term would be an unfair contract term and void and
severable).

They may well argue.

Send a recorded delivery letter, terminating the contract on the grounds of
the disadvantageous change and request a PAC and a confirmed termination
date and charge.
