A 30 day SIM only contract from 3 is ideal if you already have a phone that you are happy with and you do not want to be tied down to a long contract. If you already have a phone that was on the 3 network via a pay as you go or a monthly contract then you won’t need to unlock your phone to get a SIM only deal – you will simply need to apply online and when the SIM card arrives just pop it into the phone and you will have service. If you were not previously with 3, this is not a problem because your current network provider will be able to unlock the phone on your behalf so it would be ready to accept a 3 SIM card.
All of the 3 SIM only deals our comparison table on this page are 30 day rolling contracts which mean each month you will be billed for your SIM only contract on a rolling basis. If you decide that you don’t want to continue with the contract, just give three 30 days notice of your intention to cancel and after the 30 day notice period has elapsed you will be free to choose another deal of your choice on the network of your choice.
