    Like contracts, many PAYG tariffs have data bundles available, even unlimited ones.

    I am with Ovivo, but I know it's not everyone's cup of tea.

    Depending on the handset the ovivo allowance can prove ample (other than the texts) , since adjusting a few settings on my xperia Z, I used just less than 200mb last month (ok it's now on wifi at home) but the stamina mode switches the phone to a bog standard just sitting waiting for a call or text when the screen is off, I know other handsets and brands have a similar feature.

    I find Ovivo fine tbh. Well i don't use it as my main sim since i need unl data, but it works great as a secondary sim in my dual sim phone/
