Best SIM only data deal for £10/month?
I'm currently paying £4.97 for 1GB of data on a mobi-data SIM only 30 day rolling contract.
Using the SIM in an unlocked mi-fi to share internet access between 3-4 devices when in use, which is only when we're out and about.
I'd like a bit bigger allowance, and the main downside with mobi-data is that there's no online usage tracker.
So, I'm looking for the best deal I can get for £10/month or less:
Needs to be:
- PAYG or 30 day rolling contract.
- SIM only, unless someone is giving me free hardware on a PAYG or 30 day basis (unlikely!)
- Max cost of £10/month
- Usable in a mi-fi. This rules out some of the talk/text/data deals as they usually don't allow this) Anyway, our mobiles are all dirt cheap PAYG 2G devices with no tethering capability.
- I'd like at least 2GB and preferably 3GB/month to use, with an online usage tracker.
Any suggestions as to provider, and/or what you've been able to find or haggle, to give me an idea of what I should be trying to negotiate?
Cheers
Steve

The best SIM only deal closest to £10/month which can be used in a Mi-Fi and has an online usage tracker is probably the EE 6GB PAYG 4G data SIM, which currently can be bought on Amazon or eBay for about £15. The SIM is valid for 90 days from when you first activate it, so if you only need 2GB data a month, it will only cost you £5/month.
EE's and Vodafone's SIM only deals on a 30 day contract for £10/month only include 1GB data, so it's a much worser deal than the EE 6GB PAYG deal I mentioned above.0
