What is a Data Pack?

Buying a Data Pack is an easy way to make your money go further. Pick the amount of monthly data you need and get unlimited calls and texts included.

You can only have one active Data Pack at a time. To make sure you’ve got the data you need every month, try an Auto-renew Data Pack.  

Log into the Three app or My3 to get yours. 

Get more with an Auto-renew Data Pack

Get extra data on us with an Auto-renew Data Pack. They work like a subscription, giving you the same amount of data every month unless you cancel. But they’re commitment-free – you can cancel at any time.

Get your Auto-renew Data Pack on the Three app or My3.

What is an Add-on? 

If you need a boost, an Add-on is the perfect short-term fix.  

Add more data to your active Data Pack or get great value minutes for calling abroad from the UK. 

Log into the Three app or My3 for your available Add-ons.

Topping up abroad
