Best Sim-only Deals guide Discussion

If so did it stay? Or did they change it to a higher price later?

I managed to talk to them and got unlimited everything (including hotspot) for £6. But I have high doubts it's gonna stick for long.

At the moment you can get the Three deal which is 4gb unlimited texts and minutes for 9 pounds a month with 45 pounds cashback from either quidco or top cashback.

Don't know if it helps anyone, but I recently got unlimited minutes/texts and 1GB data for £3 a month with Sky.

I also pay Sky £20 a month for ADSL2+, but don't have any TV services. Maybe they take that into account.

Sky do take whether or not a potential customer is already with Sky into account with their SIM deals - I think they want to eventually have everyone and their dog on TV, broadband and mobile!

Did you get the £3 deal over the phone or via a rep - Haven't seen it online anywhere?

Sky mobile currently offering 2gb data + unlimited calls for £6/month on 12 month contract. I had to change from iD as their coverage was dire where I live.

I am dumb - hadn't checked the January sales!!

I am sure a lot of you might have noticed the sale EE is doing on the sim only deals until late January but what is not clearly advertised is that the £20 and £25 plans come as EE simonly Max Plans which was earlier discontinued.. I took the £20 plan and it turned out to be a max plan which means I get free BT sport on the app for the entire 24 months which is not big but still a saving of £45 (considering the first 3 months is anyway free in new contracts)

They are both listed as Essential Plans on the EE website.

Max plans are defined by higher speed and inclusive roaming outside the EU, rather than BT Sport.

By the way, you’ll be on a 12 month minimum term on sim only, not 24 months.

ironmanjason

Oh yes sorry 12 months.

The texts I received say Welcome to the Max Plan as well as in the BT sport text it says -

Great News. BT Sport on your EE phone or connected device is inclusive in your Max Plan. Click this link to get started blah blah..

I am not sure about the roaming yet as I have not travelled since taking the plan.

Over the phone. The broadband price had shot up after the 12 month tie-in ended, so I negotiated a lower price for that and a new £3/month SIM.
