    Had my credit balance cleared out over the weekend despite having mobile data turned off all the time. €2.02 taken off the balance precisely every 2 hours until it was whittled down to zero. 3 support were of very little help.

    78 euro off mine due to similar

    Can't refund as not in error

    Must have been an error with 3. It renewed at 3am this morning at the second attempt. Those texts confirming payment seem to come at any hour of the day and are quite annoying especially when in bed fast asleep!

    yeah, it's an absolute joke. The same thing happened me. It isn't worth the heartache trying to deal with the customer support either.

    No its not, even the aul thinking of leaving is pissing in the wind

    I'm pushing to find stuff to use it on

    Onedrive 7 a month, with added bonus of office (after near miss with Google docs)

    Changed VPN provider to wevpn at 5.50, only new, but highly rated, plus mainly only need it to watch "TV"

    After that if you make one or two calls be soon see it gone

    Three only worth unlimited data without speed limits advertised like Vodafone (did see someone got full speeds, but no guarantees)

    woah what? I started a new sub 5 days ago

    Try creating a new Shudder account. The Google Play account to pay can be the same.

    Don't suppose anyone has heard if Apple TV will be purchasable with credit?

    Also Netflix isn't still is that right?

    I.e. Shudder is the only streaming service we can use correct?

    Yeah Mubi is available... tried it out but it's not my taste at all, even though I do like arty flicks on occasion.

    Disney+ and Shudder each month does me fine for now... watch them most nights and quality is great.

    Getting through all the Simpsons episodes at the moment on Disney+

    yeah if it was a fiver I could justify it for the 2 or 3 movies I'd watch a month.

    I was only using credit for it but 10.99 a month is too dear and Cobra Kai moved to Netflix.

    Just so that I am clear, you use Revolut as payment for YouTube Prime via India geolocation and not Three credit correct ? I am certain their system won't allow paying for stuff via Rupees !

    Yeah, just use a normal payment method. I pay around €2.50/month for my whole family.

    Are there any other streaming sites that you can use your credit for? I see Shudder being mentioned a lot, but the genres they offer wouldn't really be my cup of tea.

    It's something, I suppose! I see there was mention of MUBI a page back, but I can't see an option for paying by credit.

    Haven't tried that actually, I'm also on Disney+, but I'm not really using it, don't have kids, and after going through the star wars catalogue, i'm kinda fed up of it. Might give Mubi a go and ditch disney.

    You can also use 3 credit to buy audio books, currently listening to the Mary Trump book and Vietnam by Max Hastings in the car to work.

    Can you get Disney with credit from 3? Might be an idea at least for a bit (Star Wars, Simpsons, that sort of thing).



    Would also be interested to hear where you get audiobooks from.

    EDIT: I never saw the option for audiobooks from Google Play. Nice one!

    Yeah, Disney + has an option for carrier billing from 3. Google play books for the audio books, think you may be able to some buy books there in PDF format as well, kinda kindle like, but on google play, haven't done it though.

    Yeah, I've used it to buy some books for my e-reader, just never realised they had audiobooks too. The ebooks are handy enough for new books that have a long waiting list from the library or are really expensive in print.


    Handy to know re Disney+, will look into that option, cheers.
