20,000 Three mobile users hit by hike

Thousands of customers are to be affected by a price hike from mobile phone operator Three.

The company has revealed plans to charge an extra €5 a month on their Classic Flex Max SIM-only plan, starting from June.

The move, which will net Three an extra €1.2m a year, will affect around 20,000 people — 1% of Three’s 2m customer base.
