Superdrug Launches New Mobile Network ( Uses Three)

Superdrug mobile is 'exclusively available' to members of its Health & Beautycard loyalty scheme, but you can get the Sim if you’re happy to sign up for their loyalty card.

On offer is a single £10/mth plan on a pay-as-you-go basis, meaning there is no need to commit to a contract or undergo a credit check - plus you can't run up a huge data bill as your allowance will stop until you add more.

Though you're forced to take its loyalty card, Superdrug does promise to add £10 worth of points once the Sim is activated, which you can then spend in store, in addition to offering double points when you shop for the duration you have an active mobile plan.

There are no handsets available so you'd need to have your own unlocked phone, but you can keep your number by requesting a code from your current provider.

What's the offer?

You can pick up a Sim, along with your beauty essentials, in one of its 800 stores or via its website and it will come loaded with the following:

4GB of data - If you don't use all your allowance it is rolled over for another month, providing you stay with the network

Extra data can be added on - An additional monthly 1GB is £2, 2GB is £3 and 4GB costs £5

Unlimited minutes - Calls to UK landlines, mobiles and numbers starting 0800, 0808 and 0500 are included

Unlimited texts - Text messages are included

Roaming is allowed - You can use your phone abroad - though you'll incur heavy charges if you use it outside the EU

Tethering is permitted - You can use your phone as a personal hotspot to connect other devices such as your iPad

It uses the Three network - Superdrug and Three are actually owned by the same company
