Tesco are offering a SIM only monthly contract with 500 minutes and unlimited texts and data for £10 a month. Is that data=internet???

(Yes - a not so sensible question on a Sunday morning!!)

Its the best deal I can find if it is internet access too.

Thanks

    Yes Data = Mobile internet

    you do not really get unlimited data though as it says below in the terms and conditions

    "If your tariff includes unlimited calls, texts, web & data, a fair use policy will apply, monthly data allowance 500MB"

    still a decent deal for a sim only pack

    Beware that if you go over the 500mb allowance, you are stung for £4 per mb!

    Not Tesco! Anything but that! I've just cancelled that exact same deal because I had no signal anywhere.

    I'm back with 3 and they have a sim only deal (granted it's for 12 months) and you get 1Gb of data, 3000 texts and 300 minutes for £10 and month. Or the same deal on a rolling contract for £15

    Ask them for a free SIM so you can check the signal before you sign up. They use O2 network.
