three ireland - 'three like home' - italy?
 

I now have a 3 (Ireland) PAYG sim card - i'm getting a bit confused about three like home - i think i'm on the 'best of both' tarriff

When i go here:

three.ie - 3Like Home. Travel 3, pay like home.

And go to the 'best of both' tab then Italy is not mentioned - it says:

Participating Networks on Best of Both:

UK
Australia
Austria
Denmark
Sweden

But in the pay monthly tab the italy flag is there.

If i then go to three.ie - Welcome to our International section. and select best of both and that i'm travelling to italy it says 'Travel 3, pay like home.' - in the 'data roaming' tab it says 'Domestic (RoI) rates apply'

I'm predominantly interested in data, so does my three.ie data package work in italy, or will i be charged mucho mucho?

Clear as mud to me :(

in case anyone was wondering - three like home does indeed work for an irish prepaid '3' sim - sadly i seem to be on the cusp of the 3g region as the dongle will flash 3g, but then drop back to 2g, so i might have to go into a shop and buy a WIND sim after all..

Maybe you can force your equipment to 3G-only, so it doesn't bounce back to 2G. I do this with my BlackBerry (via engineering menu) and Nokia N95 which has this feature by default).

if it works what are the settings
 

Hi Guys,

so some of you got it working - I tried with my 3 pay as you go (prepaid) yesterday on my arrival in Rome and it seemed not to work.
What would be the proper APN settingfs on the phone? Could I just stay with 3.internet.ie or do I have to change it to tre.it?
Any advice anyone?

Thanks, Markus.
