Cancellation Three: Easy Method
What is Three
Overview
Three is a mobile network operator known for providing mobile voice, SMS and data services, originally operating in the UK market.
It offers subscription plans (pay monthly), SIM-only options and pay-as-you-go services through retail and online channels.
Services and scope
Three supplies 4G and 5G connectivity, roaming add-ons and bundled device deals where available.
Although based in the UK, customers outside the UK should check local availability, contract terms and international support options.
How to cancel Three
Before you start
Review your contract to confirm minimum term, termination fees and any device finance arrangements that may apply.
Gather the account number, phone number and proof of identity to speed up cancellation.
Step-by-step cancellation methods
- Online/account: Log into your Three account (if available) and check account settings for a cancellation or plan change option.
- Phone: Call Three customer services to request cancellation and ask for a reference number for the call.
- Post: Send a written cancellation letter to Three Customer Services by recorded delivery to ensure proof of receipt.
- In-contract returns: If you have a device on finance, clarify the settlement amount and return instructions before cancelling.
- Confirm closure: Request written confirmation of account closure and a final bill showing any outstanding balance or refund.
What happens when you cancel
Service access
Service will typically continue until the end of your billing period or until the provider processes the cancellation.
Once cancelled, voice, SMS and mobile data access will stop according to the provider’s specified effective date.
Billing and renewals
Final billing will include any early termination charges, outstanding device finance and prorated charges if applicable.
Automatic renewals will stop after cancellation, but you should still obtain final confirmation and a final invoice.
Will I get a refund?
General refund policy
Refunds depend on your contract terms, whether you paid in advance and the timing of your cancellation within the billing cycle.
Prepaid credit refunds are typically handled according to the provider’s terms; pay-monthly refunds are less common.
Common exceptions and conditions
- Early termination: You may owe early termination or device settlement fees instead of receiving a refund.
- Unused prepaid credit: Policies vary; check terms for reclaiming unused pay-as-you-go credit.
- Billing disputes: If you believe you are due a refund, keep evidence and raise a formal billing complaint in writing.

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Key legal protections
South African consumers are protected by national laws such as the Consumer Protection Act (CPA) which provides rights around fair treatment, proper disclosure and certain cancellation conditions.
These protections apply when a business supplies goods or services to consumers in South Africa.
How to enforce your rights
If you believe your rights have been breached, you can lodge complaints with the National Consumer Commission and consult the communications regulator where relevant.
Keep records of your contract, communications and bills; these are essential if you escalate a dispute or seek mediation.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Customers commonly report good coverage and competitive data allowances on modern plans where Three operates.
Supportive experiences often involve prompt confirmation of plan changes and straightforward device settlements.
Common criticisms
Negative feedback typically concerns long wait times for customer service, confusion over early termination charges, and delays in receiving final bills.
Documented complaints usually cite lack of clear written confirmation after phone cancellations.
Documentation checklist
Essential documents
- Account holder name and contact details
- Account number or mobile number associated with the service
- Copy of the contract or terms and conditions
- Proof of identity (ID/passport) and proof of address if requested
Supporting evidence
- Written cancellation request (email or letter) and delivery receipt
- Call reference numbers and call records
- Final invoices and receipts for device finance settlements
Common mistakes
Failing to check contract terms
Customers often cancel without reviewing minimum term commitments or device finance obligations, leading to unexpected charges.
Always confirm any early termination charge and how device repayments are handled before ending the service.
Poor record-keeping
Not keeping written proof of cancellation or a confirmation number causes disputes to escalate and prolong resolution.
Send cancellation requests by recorded delivery or save confirmation emails and screenshots of account closure.
