What do three mean when they say all you can eat data?

All you can eat data

Those on three how quick are their speeds? Better than vodafone?

All you can eat is unlimited data with no throttling!

Network speeds for me m25 jct 30/31 are 5mb upto 17mb depending on time of day. Reception is fantastic in comparison with o2

Is it avalible on a 3 one plan? The one plans give you tethering too which is also unlimited!

Really? The most I have gotten on vodafone has been around 2.75mbps... Normally get 13.47mbpa on wifi

Wasn't sure about data and how much as some places there are catches...

Just checked my itemised billing and during the last 4 weeks I've used 29gb of data with no slowing down or additional charges!

That's amazing... What are your wifi speeds like? I know it can not always be consistent due to where people live...

Why would wifi speeds be relevant?

Can I just say I'm extremely jealous. Enjoy the all you can eat data buffet!

Wasn't sure if it mattered or not on a different network.. I'm guessing not

Thanks for the info. Signal is also a big thing for me. It is always terrible whenever I'm in a supermarket or at work. That drives me nuts... Hoping three would be alot better

Bad time of day to test but here you go

Bottom result was at work in a big tin hut lol

I've used 3.1gb data in 2 weeks and haven't been throttled.

Speeds:


Usually I get really good speeds but there have been times when I'm out and about and stuck on 0.5mbps. It all depends on where you are.

Reception wise lowest I've had is 3 bars indoors. Morrisons and tesco the same.

Here is the bad news - 3s signal doesn't seem to penetrate buildings very well although the speeds I posted above are all from my home and from my University library. You really start to see signal being affected with the dreaded no service status when in supermarkets (tesco in my area is THE WORST compared to Asda/Morrisons). Other places I've seen signal disappear - cellars, lecture halls, the train and certain parts of the motorway.

This is the biggest problem with 3 but the problems don't affect me on a daily basis and 3 do seen to be getting better with their coverage. The 3G speeds are a worthy trade off for not having signal in certain areas.
