    Agreed, I buy the 3 12Gb annual SIM for £50 via eBay, and this is excellent value.

    I have just signed up for Ovivo mobile tablet sim. Cost is a one off fee of £5, Been using it for 2 weeks now and it seems to be good. There are a few adverts which you can skip through. Well worth trying for occasional use.http://ovivomobile.com/

    When you say a few adverts, how many do you mean? And how do they work, do they just pop up when you're doing other things, or only when you're on the Internet, or some other way? I'm interested but their website doesn't give much away.

    We have had very few adverts at all, They are just pop ups, can easily be skipped, and dont intrude on your browsing. Well worth a try, the most you can lose in £5.
    We have been using it for about 5 weeks now and am very happy.

    Thanks, I ordered one and it arrived this morning. Haven't had chance to give it a go yet but it sounds great.

    I have an iPad (3G) and an iPhone 3GS.

    I have a T-Mobile Sim in the iPhone, which can be tethered and have an https://www.ovivo.com data sim in the iPad.

    I used to use a 3Gb/3month Three data sim in the iPad (cost about £8 via Quidco) but not only it the ovivo cheaper it also runs on Vodafone network, which gives a better coverage since Three & T-Mobile shared 3G networks, if I couldn't get a Three signal a lot of the time I couldn't get a T-Mobile signal either (and vice versa) but having Vodafone network just adds to the coverage.
  • Not sure if right place for this query can any one advise best micro sim for I Pad while in Madeira on holiday Not heavy use few e mails Facebook and web use not excessive
    Thanks
