Setting up your device or eSIM

Whether you’ve got a new phone, tablet, or smartwatch, our device support pages have everything you need.  

Got a device with an eSIM? You’ll need to activate it before you get up and running. It’s quick and easy to do. Find out how to activate your eSIM. 

And if you’ve got a new smartwatch, here’s everything you need to know about smartwatch pairing.

 

Keep your number

Keeping your number is easy with Three.  

Already given us your PAC? Your transfer will take place on the date you’ve chosen. Don’t forget, your SIM needs to be active for this to happen. Activating your SIM is easy – just put it into your device, and that’s it.  

Need more help? Check our handy switching FAQs for more info.

First bill

Your first bill will be available 6 days after placing your order. It may take a few days to show on My3 or the Three app but we’ll text you when it’s ready. It’ll be slightly higher than your usual monthly charge as it covers your first full month plus 6 days.   

Bought a device and an Airtime plan? Two direct debits will be taken from your account every month. One for your device repayments and the other for your Airtime plan.  

You’ll get an annual statement for your device repayments and a monthly Airtime bill.  

Find out more about your first bill.

Spend cap

A Spend Cap lets you limit your spending on things not included in your monthly plan. This includes calls, texts and data, at home and abroad.  

Your Spend Cap will have been set when you placed your order. You can check and change it as often as you like on the Three app or by logging into My3

Ways to pay

When you open your account with us, you set up a direct debit or regular card payment to pay your Airtime bill.  

Need to make a change? There are other ways to pay, but don’t forget, you save £60 a year when you pay by direct debit or regular card payment.
