who is the cheapest payg data provider

jimmay94

hey everyone.
so i recently got a new phone and it is dual sim.
my current payg provider is giffgaff and with family being on there too its worked out great on a £5 tarrif.
i was thinking though rather than waste my other slot maybe i could put a data exclusive sim in there as my options allow me to set data only on sim 2
so I was wondering Who is the best value for data on pay as you go?
the cheaper and more data the better

thanks
also is there any provider cheaper than gifgaff or are they as cheap as it gets?

Three or 1p mobile (uses the EE network). Three are 3p/min, 2p/text and 1p/MB. 1p mobile are 1p, 1p and 1p respectively. https://www.1pmobile.com/

Many dual SIM phones only offer 2G on the second SIM slot, so might not be much use... Especially with the Three network which is 3G or 4G only (1p mobile can use 2G, but it's going to be very slow for data, if it works at all for data in the second slot).

Dual SIM phones are popular with visitors and ex-pats in places like Spain, they use a local SIM in one slot and a UK one in the other. Means their friends can call a number from their included minutes to keep in touch, avoiding a costly call to an "overseas" number.

Smarty might work out cheaper. It would depend on your exact usage. Certainly it gives your the option of adding more data during your bundle and at £1.25 per Gb it's very competitive. They operate on the Three network

Delight mobile £1 / month for 500MB or £3.50 for 2GB. MVNO on the EE network. Be aware that this is 3G data only and they will steal any remaining credit after 90 days but can't really complain for those rates.
