A little Rant #Three #NCT #MumsOnly

Hi three.

I see you like mummy bloggers over the daddy Variants?


Looking at the Three on the go event it states on the page

At Three's special On the Go mums event, you'll have the opportunity to attend fun and informative panel discussions and workshops, where you'll discover all the great things that mobile internet on your smartphone can do for you.


Sorry Hutchinson Whampoa. Three, and the NCT I feel you may have missed someone here. DADS!

Are you saying daddy's are not welcome, hence the /Mums page on the site? Well it feels it.

Well i have to say it winds me up somewhat. I thought discrimination was the Daily Mails work, not a GSM provider and a Charity

Three pride themselves on all you can eat data... with no 2g service, meaning many are stuck in contracts they can't use, Check bitterwallet out for the of this and how my email contact with them helped many leave the network. (this issue posted on the link will still get you off your contract so people if your signal is crap use the link)

The NCT Pride themselves to be the UK's leading parent charity. Sorry darlings you chose to help discriminate a huge chunk of parents with this. This is not acceptable, It would cause outcry if you said your charity was mums only, so why this event?

You could always turn the tables and arrange a dad's event too. But, I suppose it's too short notice. But, I hope you listen to this feedback

I want your opinions on this people. Sexism or a niche way of getting mums to sign up for more extras on there contracts?

Three/Hutchinson Whampoa and the NCT, Please contact me about this, as it stinks. BIG TIME


Update 3 have responded to this with the following

@hooker1uk Indeed! If you're keen to get involved there are opps for all parent bloggers but it is more mum focused.

Hold the front page. so you prefer mum's. I wonder why's that, easier to force a future sale on maybe?

My final thoughts on this are
Remember it's not just mums who blog! It's an attitude that should be squashed NOW!
Secondly those people you burn could have been potential customers (Was looking at coming back to three in 16 months, now i won't bother and Vodafone can have my money. )
