START THE YEAR WITH BIG SAVINGS.
Three is cutting the cost of running your phone in the New Year with a range of discounts on pay monthly price plans and top of the range Pay As You Go Android smartphones.
From 22 December, the Three January sale will offer customers searching for a last minute Christmas gift and those looking to tighten their belts in the New Year, a chance to save as much as £5 a month on an Android pay monthly plan or £70 on a Pay As You Go phone such as the HTC Cha Cha or Samsung Galaxy W.
All of Three’s price plans are available with all the internet you’ll ever need which means that customers can use the internet on their smartphones to compare prices of January sale items on the high street, book train tickets, listen to the radio or enjoy live sport to their hearts’ content without worrying about bill shock.
Sylvia Chind, head of devices at Three said, “Smartphones will continue to be the must-have gadget in 2012 so we’re keen to give customers a head start in the New Year with the best phones on the most affordable price plans.
“Our January sale has been launched ahead of Christmas this year to help people planning to jump feet first into the world of smartphones, or those seeking a last-minute Christmas gift, get hold of the best possible deal on the UK’s fastest growing mobile network.”
