Good Experience With 3U

Overall Rating:
4 out of 5
By: Jennifer Course on Friday, August 10, 2007
From: Putney, VT (United States)
Experience: 3 Years
Pros: 3U is the cheapest plan I could find, and I did extensive research a few years ago.

Cons: Sometimes our calls can not be connected, so we have to try several times. However, whenever we call to have this problem looked into, they are very accommodating and usually fix the problem. We always talk to the same customer service rep. who is very friendly.

Summary: 3U has allowed our family to keep in touch with family in Nicaragua and not go bankrupt. It's well worth the occassional inconvenience of not being able to connect. I'd recommend this company to anyone with similar needs.

Pros: Convenient and a lot cheaper than conventional phone cards, also enjoy once a month billing

Summary: Have to say that I enjoy your service. I like the knowledge that I can call my family back home ay time from my cell phone. 99 per cent of the time I can hear perfectly, in fact to New Zelanad I can hear better than a local call on my cell phone. I have only a few times been unable to get through

Dial-Around - Did you know?

Several companies are now offering an excellent alternative to using your current cell phone carrier when making calls out of the country.

These plans will save you up to 85% compared to the rates charged by your current cellular provider.

I'll use this plan
