    This is indeed very useful on the Three network, especially after I recently learned that top-up vouchers stuck "In Queue" for 180 days expire, since chargeable calls & texts only touch the actual top-up in use and it's only this one where the 180-day timer is reset. As I make very few calls and texts (I've no signal at home and mainly use WhatsApp & VoIP at work or out & about), I once thought I could let the top-ups accumulate to give me plenty for roaming, then I noticed credit was disappearing for no apparent reason. :eek:

    If you don't plan buying anything on Google Play (or have an iPhone or Windows phone), another tip would be to buy 500MB add-ons (€5 each) until a previous top-up makes it out of the queue, then use this data (down to about 100MB left as a safety margin) before doing the next €20 top-up for AYCE data.
