    Not always? My son gets through about 10 minutes of calls, 800 texts and 200MB of data a month. Possibly atypical usage but I think giffgaff is the cheapest for him.

    Three can do a capped SIM Only deal at £7pm. (capped means can't go over)

    For that you get 200 Minutes, Unlimited texts and 500MB data every month plus free 0800 calls, 4G included and free roaming in 16 countries.

    Fine if you want a 12 month contract but not available on PAYG

    It's a loser for most people, the £12 unlimited data goodybag was the most popular goody bag available. Their forums are raging about it being capped.

    Turkeys don't vote for Christmas, the community did not want this change. They must think people are stupid if they think we believe we have a say in the pricing for a huge corporations products.
  • loooser for me
  • No change.

    £5 a month.

    I use my mobile telephone for calls and texts, when I can be bothered - that's assuming I've even remembered to turn it on.
  • No change. I have the £7.50 a month bag and I've been safely within the limits for my usage. I don't use much data out and about anyway, but have set up to use various wifi networks - sailing club,various pubs, aged parent's, etc..
