Neil Bird from iGadget Life has kindly pointed out that there are only a few days left to sign up and receive half price mobile broadband; the offer ends this Saturday, the 31st May. Existing customers of 3 can receive a 50% discount on line rental when taking out an 18 or 24 month contract which means mobile broadband can be yours for as little as £5 a month.

Neil mentions how he’s just recommended the deal to a friend who’s taking the leap on to the property ladder for the first time, which Neil realises is an expensive process and internet access can be an expensive addition. “This is where 3’s great offer of 1GB for £5 a month appealed, as she is already a 3 subscriber (thanks to me)” writes Neil. “This means that no landline is required, and she will be able to surf the net for next to nothing!” As Neil points out, where else can you get broadband, be wireless, and surf the net where ever you like, all for £5 a month?

You can sign up to 3’s half price deal here, but only until Saturday!

NEWSFLASH! We’ve just had it confirmed by 3 that the offer has been extended to the end of June, so that’s half price mobile broadband tariffs for existing 3 customers for another month!
