    Any reasonable data providers as today?

    Depends on what exactly it is you're looking for in terms of cap (if any)?

    Voucher AWDATAMAR32-Half Price 4G Data Sim Data 32GB Was £29 Now £14.50
    http://shop.ee.co.uk/cart?discounts=AWDATAMAR32&WT.mc_id=ON_MEC_A_AffWin_HotUKDeals&WT.tsrc=Affiliate#voucher_link

    Had to order new SIM, give them cancellation notice on the other... will have to port my number over to the third party network and transfer back... hassle TBH... BUT
    Considering price hikes plenty of data for £14.50 P/M 30 day roll on contract

    As long as you are aware this is a data only contract.

    The sim will work in a phone and while calls can be made you have no included allowance and calls are 50p per minute iirc.

    Yes, suits me! You can receive calls on data sim number. I got 3-sim and 2-sim phones, my spare is moto-e, the only single sim phone...
    that's for over a year now.

    SIM's are:
    EE data sim's (includes 100txt's) currently 2 of (one will expire 25gn-£15 PCM) Monthly roll on plans...

    O2 PAYG for occasional international call (my number dating 20 years now)... too dear for any data usage.

    Tello ("3" Network) for "anonymous" calls, nobody knows that number kinda for a laugh...does allow tehering

    "3" PAYG (321 plan) ... don't know why I am keeping it, although it is most balanced quality, service, value package, but since I parted with old contracting firm, just got it... same £0.01p per mb- same too dear for data connection and doesn't allow tethering...

    TalkMobile PAYG (£0.10p happy hour tariff) (Vodafone network) as a main (near 20 year old) number OK on everything, but no real on-line support, only switch to it's data for tethering, when no reception on EE


    (It may appear) seems as crazy, but it all become this way about couple a years ago, with all of the experimenting etc, kinda "mad man possessed" , now I intend to get another one, just to transfer my popular number from EE, back in to EE...

    Holly thread resurrection!
    Got this email and unsure if to take the offer, but so far have been satisfied with EE's data speed, amount (30gb), price (~£15 p/M) and service, but to needing to sign up to 12 months contract is off-putting and 60gb isn't really needed, still, very tempting!

  • has anybody used the vectone 100gb offer ?
    https://www.vectonemobile.co.uk/vmbundle/subscribe/MTFAQDE0OTZAQEZTQlM=

    If so what restrictions are in place for use of the 100gb when used via tethering

    Ive come across google search links that mention 10gb limit for tethering & also on this thread someone mentioned speed restrictions after 3gb of use ?

    Considering they are only asking £10 for the first month (then £20) then I'd be surprised if there were no restrictions in place

    I can see the logic, behind your wishful thinking, but doubt it highly, as previous experience with V'e CS hasn't been impressive.
    Perhaps inquiring directly to them and keeping the record as a proof would be most sensible?
