I've been using a Vodafone 3G datacard for over a year now. I was paying £25+vat for 250mb download per month. Now that wasn't too bad as long as I was careful about what I did online. But sometimes it was slow, rarely got 3G and usually just ended up at 384k.

Well recently 3 have been advertising their new Broadband service on the radio. I took at look at the website, here, and the pricing of what you get is way much better. For £10 (inclusive of VAT) you get 1GB, £15 3GB and £25 7GB! After spending a bit of time reading the website I decided it was time to change.

So went out and signed up to the £15 per month package. Picked up the USB modem and a few hours later it was connected. Worked like a dream, incredibly smooth and easy to use. Speeds are definitely quicker and it now gives me much more freedom to look at things on the move. So Vodafone is cancelled, although you have to use snail mail to official do that.

See how it goes over the next few months.
