PAYG Mobile Broadband ???

My intentions may not be entirely honourable 
, but a straight forward question non the less 
Is anyone aware of any provider selling a pay as you go mobile broadband service, with no (or a signficant) time limit. For example - similar to a mobile PAYG top up - the minutes dont run out. So a service where you pay for the # GBs and have no restriction around how long you take to use them / or requirements to keep topping up every so often?

do tesco do it???
low usage internet traffic (e.g. web browsing) = low GB usage
a contract charging per gb (rather than per month, etc) = low cost internet usage = cheap option for new broadband connection = ....you can guess the rest......To Stooze or Not To Stooze - Theres only one option0 -
lolol. Well, I think Asda are supposed to be the cheapest per minute provider, and yes, Tesco do it as well. I think I was originally thinking of Asda. But I don't know about their browsing charges. I think you are probably on the right site to find out, tho, as Martin does regular updates about cheapest providers, and its bound to tell you about minutes' expiry....Ex board guide.

3 do them - choice of dongle only or pre-paid 1, 3, or 12GB - pretty sure these don't 'time out' (worth a doble-check, few years since I had one)0

Looks like Vodafone give you 9 months to use your credit at £15/GB:

hmmm some interesting leads thanks......
1gb should last years for normal browsing - so cost would be justified. I have 500mb on my phone per month - and have probably used about 20mb in 4 months. Ok - usage on a PC will be signficantly higher - but still dont expect to use mor than 1gb per year for browsing bookie web sites, MSE, etc.
My virgin 20mb broadband can then by used for my other not so honourable activity To Stooze or Not To Stooze - Theres only one option0 -

As of March this year, this review suggested top-ups lasted 30 days.

Vodafone make a thing of their top-ups not timing out after 30 days, so I guess that is the norm.
