There are two things I need some advice on, apologies if the answer to the first is obvious, but my friend has just got me more and more confused.

The first is about 4G/ LTE - To be honest, the iPhone 5 being my first smartphone, I doubt I'll ever use it, but saying that, I do want to if possible, go with a provider who offers it so that if in the future I want to use it - I can.

Am I right in thinking Three, Orange and T-Mobile are the the only three companies that will provide the 4G service as they are part of/ own some of EE's spectrum?

Secondly, my iPhone 5 is unlocked, does that mean, if I choose a Sim Only Contract with Three, when the Sim is put in the phone, it will be locked to Three for ever? (My friend said this and I got confused)

And finally - I wanted to go with Three's £6.90 Sim Only 12 Month Contract, but my Dad lives in Ireland and my Grandad in Spain, so is it possible to get international adds ons for this?

Thank you :)
