Auto cancelling bundles?

I am trying to find a company that will handle bundles in the way I want which is basically to avoid, or limit, bill shock if an app goes crazy, my daughter watches a video or a family emergency say causes a lot of phone calls.
I live in the sticks near cambridge so only O2 and vodaphone based MVNOs will do.
Most do bundles, and most do auto renew, but they all seem to arrange it so that if you use up all of one allowance you cannot dump the bundle and get another.
What I want to do is set it up to automatically buy bundles of mins/txt/data at around £10, then if I use up any of the allowances, buy another bundle and use that (an email to say it has done it would be nice).
Three seem to do the bundles that way but the coverage is 'emergency only' at home.
Giffgaff and Sainsbury seem to force you to run to the end of 30 days as a PAYG user.
I cannot work it out for lebarra.
I suspect it is a standard trick from all of them, anyone know better?

I think Tesco mobile are on O2? My daughter has a capped contract on Tesco mobile, and you can buy a bundle if the included limits are reached. I don't know if it will do it automatically but I think (I'm not sure) you aren't limited to just one per billing period.0

I spoke with Tesco, they do the same trick but will let you ring upand cancel the current bundle.0
