giffgaff mobile network

I believe it is limited to a fair use of 100MB PER DAY, so quite a lot per month

Hi all

GiffGaff list their web as unlimited, just wondering if this is correct or is it capped of at 500mb? (fair use policy)

It is unlimited however you cannot use it for tethering.

It is truly unlimited if you buy a £10 plus goodybag.Payg data prices are 20p per day upto 20mb then 20p per mb thereafter.

Thank you everyone

I just wanted to know if it was capped off for the month, like other networks and their 500mb etc. I had a closer look on the GiffGaff site and it does say it's unlimited, or as they put it "truly unlimited".

Although they have suspended data for people who have gone mad with it and downloaded lots (20Gb+?) data so it isn't as unlimited as they say it is. Most people won't get near that with their phones which is probably how they get away with saying unlimited - it's up to you when this happens to prove you weren't tethering.

Three however on their unlimited plans are unlimited - I saw a blog post about someone who got to 46Gb on Three (including tethering).

Talkmobile are currently offering unlimited data and 200 mins and 200 texts with contracts starting at £12 per month. If you can make do with a cheaper phone you can get the deal from E2save from 0.99p a month on cashback and don't forget TCB or Quidco.

By tethering I take it you mean putting the SIM in a USB dongle and plugging it into your PC/Laptop?

or other connection methods, such as between phone and PC, by cable, wi-fi, bluetooth, whatever, or in a router

Had a quick look at the talk mobile offer but cant find much info on it. Is it truly unlimited data? Does it include tethering (ok, unlikely I know!). Im about to buy a new mobile broadband but if I can get it free on a phone contract it would save me a £15 a month.

Do any mobile contracts include tethering? If so could someone point out some good ones, would be great to combine with my mobile contract.
