    I'm thinking of going with Ovivo, so no harm in PMing me a referral link too I guess... I may or may not end up using it.

    The main catch that I don't think has been mentioned in this thread is that it is ad-supported: you consent to be subject to extra ads as you browse the internet using the connection. Most people seem to say the ads aren't intrusive. I found another thread on here where people say that the ads have not been active for a while, but are due to come back "in spring" (so, any minute).

    I don't know if you still get ads when using paid for data, or only on the free tier. In general, I somewhat prefer paying for things in other ways than ads.

    If anyone's concerned about privacy, it seems mining usage data must be one of their main business assets - but then I don't know to what extent that is also true of other operators.

    At least they do say (on their 'About Us' page)
    We will NEVER sell your information to 3rd Parties, but we use it to understand what kinds of products and services may be relevant to show you. Rest assured, your privacy is key and our privacy policy is available here on our website for you to read.

    In common with most such things, the privacy policy itself allows them quite a few liberties:
    We may disclose your personal information to any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 1159 of the UK Companies Act 2006.

    We may disclose your personal information to third parties. In the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets.

    ETA: I think I wasted my time on replying you. 58 posts all over the forum in less than 2 hours? I am sure you are not for real. Do you really need that many posts to start spamming us?
