A method and a device for accessing a network by a User Equipment, and a User Equipment are provided. The method includes obtaining a second network identifier of a second network in which a second cell is and an identifier of a second service provider selected by the UE from service providers supported by the second network, when the UE moves from a first cell to the second cell; sending an access request carrying a Globally Unique Temporary Identifier of the UE to the second network to access the second network, when the second network identifier is different from a first network identifier of a first network in which the first cell is, or when the identifier of the second service provider is different from an identifier of a first service provider with which the UE registers, in service providers supported by the first network.
