Difference of 8 only between three and O2 I can see three overtaking!
I reckon that £115 quidco for three helped even more.
With that deal that's bound to be the cheapest even after O2 get friends and family discount of 30% ...02 tariffs are way expensive

existing customers on ORANGE.
my mate got:
25% discount as he upgraded (not staff discount -his only been with them for one previous contract) + £5 off for first 6 months.
he got the £36 tariff.
£99 upfront for the phone.
only 500Mb cap on net- but he doesn't use that much anway....
so anyone else on orange- try negotiate with the sales team
t-mobile- if you have family/friend that works for t-mobile - they give 50% discount on contracts

this is the message my friend keeps getting - 2nd time its happen to them.
they called Three-they have said maybe the details may not be same example billing address and delivery address ...but they cannot say exactly why?
also they said go in store and try order- but if ordering through store no £115 quidco...
mmmh....well the quidco offer is their till feb 2012..but friend is really getting frustrated of how many times they have to order before they can get it.
everything else they have ordered online in the pass has been ok..they have decent job and everything..they just dont seem to understand - any alternatives? maybe using another family members credit card?

I had a similar issue months ago. Their credit check agency have rejected you. Don't bother keep trying as they black list you for a few months before you can try again. I got a decent job, contract on other network and even a sim only deal with 3 (when I complained was told phone contracts stricter than sim only deals). Your friend will either have to wait a few months or someone else
Order and he pays them (not ideal I know). Or go sim only and buy phone outright.

Also to find out why need to go to credit agency.
Three service in delivery-
It came in a specialy delivery bag!
No protection over the iPhone box- flipping careless.
Any product iv ever got from apple comes in a bubble wrapped boxed.
The IPHONE 4S box was dented-not 100% happy feeling like throwing the box at three customer service and asking for another brand new iPhone 4S box

Difference of 4 left between the 2 highest networks.
This is the closest it's been in te last week or so.
Can three really become the number 1.
They just did get number 1 for :
Thanks to our ongoing network improvements weve been rated No.1 network for smartphones. This, along with our great value plans including all-you-can-eat data, means more people than ever are joining you on Three.
To celebrate, and as a bit of a thank you, were giving away hundreds of great prizes over three days.

Call me pedantic, but T-Mobile uses the same 3G network as 3 and it's Vodafone with an f, not a ph.
I'm pretty sure (correct me if i'm wrong) they just share their sites, and run different networks on different bands.
"the mobile masts and infrastructure that connects to each operator's separate core network"
From the front page:
"MBNL is now responsible for managing the consolidated network of sites including the 2G and consolidated 3G radio access networks for Three UK and Everything Everywhere."
I think you need to go and read up on what a Radio Access Network is.
Here's a screenshot from my Three connection.
Your own milage might very.
Holy sheet that's fast! What area are you in?
My best DL was 5.9Mb in West Midlands.
