    Just recently moved up north still on my old 3 irish network. Had thought 3 prices would stay the same but appears they are charging.
    Some real good monthly Sim deals up here and 24 month contract deals. wonder is it worth having two phones??
    anybody any experience?greatly appreciated!!!!

    Three might be a good deal, but only on their network. In many places you cannot receive the 3G network so you are roaming on someone else.

    How often do you use Voicemail?
    I still believe that 3 are the best value if you're hopping over the border.

    Don't forget that Meteor, who also have no Norn Iron roaming charges, have pricey voicemail.

    Use hullomail for voicemail.

    Costly service for voicemail, versus the voicemail itself, as you are dialling an access number, based in Dublin. Also, some networks have issues using Hullomail on PAYG.
