Three: One of the UK's Largest Mobile Network Providers
Three is one of the UK’s largest mobile phone network and internet providers. Claiming to provide 3G and 4G signal to 99 percent of the UK, their network is popular both for its reliability and its reach, even in rural communities.
This award-winning company also provides mobile phone contracts with handsets from the latest big brands. They are probably most recognised, though, for their quirky television adverts featuring hybrid animals such as a sloth-dolphin and flamingo-giraffe. There is a range of data and mobile network plans available to suit the needs of different customers, including free minutes, data, and texts.
The company has over 300 branches within the UK, as well as head offices located in Reading and Glasgow. As well as these local branches, Three operates a busy website where customers can access their account and apply for mobile phone contracts 365 days a year.
Stores across the UK tend to be on the high streets of towns and cities, where they will receive the most footfall from people who are interested in upgrading their mobile phone or changing their network provider.
The stores themselves have a white illuminated sign, perfect for catching the eye. This is usually adorned with ‘Three’ in a simple font or the company’s logo, which is a stylized number three. Each establishment is kept minimalistic, with the focus being on letting customers play with the latest in phones and tablets for themselves. This tends to tempt consumers into signing up for lengthy mobile phone contracts.
The opening times can vary depending on where that store is located. For stand-alone shops on the high street, Three's opening and closing times tend to be 9 am until 5:30 pm Monday to Saturday. On Sundays, this changes to 12 pm to 4 pm.
Branches that are located in certain shopping malls may have different opening times, depending on that shopping centre’s closing times. In these cases, use the company's website to locate a branch ‘near me’ and double-check.
During the festive season, stores may operate longer opening times for increased sales. They will, however, be shut on Christmas Day but may open on New Year’s Day. They are likely to close early on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. Check out the store locator to find the Three opening times at the branch closest to you.
They might be named Three, but here are five facts about the company that you might not have known about:
-
They are taking steps to stop any gender pay gaps in their company. An initiative was launched in 2017 for equal pay amongst employees.
-
The company has also signed up to a modern slavery initiative. This program aims to stop modern slavery and human trafficking by asking companies to investigate their own supply chains to ensure all products and services are created fairly.
-
They were the first 100 percent 3G network provider in the UK.
-
They were also the first network to introduce a package for ‘all-you-can-eat’ data and 4G signal to its customers that wouldn’t cost them more.
-
Half of the data used by their customers is used to stream media—such as videos on Netflix—which shows how good their network coverage is.
At their heart, they are a company that provides customers with mobile phone network and mobile internet. Over the years, though, they have also added a number of other goods and services to their repertoire.
Most people buy their new mobile phones as part of a ‘pay monthly’ scheme, and this is one of the services they can provide for their customers. Here, people can get the latest mobile phones from the likes of Apple or Samsung, for a set monthly cost. This cost covers both the handset and your network charges.
They have various network plan bundles, which include items such as data allowance, free minutes, and free texts. These are generally very customisable, allowing customers to choose a bundle that suits their needs.
As well as phone contracts, you can also buy pay-as-you-go SIMs or pay monthly SIMs without the need to buy a handset.
They also offer monthly mobile broadband bundles; these include items such as tablets and dongles. These dongles are particularly popular with students, as they plug into laptops and give internet signal to that device—perfect for studying on the go!
In keeping with their name, the company officially launched on 03.03.03, and they were the first UK network to offer all of its customers 3G signal. It was also the first mobile phone network to reach 80 percent coverage in the UK, in 2004. It now claims to have 99 percent coverage for its customers.
The first branches were opened in 2003, both in London. By 2005, the company started opening stores across the UK and now has over 300 nationwide. They did try to purchase fellow network provider O2 in 2016; however, this sale was blocked by regulators due to fair competition laws.
