Ah. I updated it with the affiliate link I found. That should work.

Your updated link doesn’t work either.

This should: https://3g.co.uk/transfer?19460

but I would say it probably won’t help the OP as it’s not a fixed broadband replacement. Only 30GB of the allowance is available for tethering, the rest can only be used on a phone.

This is the link to all their offers: https://3g.co.uk/sim-only/contract

Many of Three’s plans include unlimited TV, Netflix, etc. via “Go Binge” for no additional charge.

I think the OP needs to get out more though...

But often those plans won't allow you to tether to other devices (which just be their posts, is what the OP wants to do).

Very few options are available to you. The best might be Relish 4G home broadband, which offers unlimited mobile broadband for around £20 a month, but it's only available in very limited areas. It might not be suitable for 4k streaming though (should be fine for HD though). There's also Satellite broadband, but this very expensive, and can sometimes not work well with streaming. Maybe if you are going to live in the boat moored maybe there might be a house nearby that might allow you to use their wifi if you pay them a bit each month.

Sorry but the link is not working. Are you sure this is definitely unlimited. And it is not just called "unlimited" with some stupid cap?

Yep. It's unlimited.

I cant see any mobile provider letting you use over 380Gb per month.

You can download over 21 times that amount before Three will look into your account! If you get to 1TB a month, they will examine your account for evidence of commercial activity (the SIM is only available for personal use).

Only for handset use, try and use it as a fixed broadband alternative with tethering and you’ll have problems.

Thanks for that, it seems exactly what I want.

Awesome.

The points above about tethering are correct, though. The only way you can use that data is by directly putting it in a phone or tablet. There's a 30GB/month limit for tethering (which I presume includes mi-fi routers).

I have not really looked into this, but how can they enforce these restrictions? What if an individual uses a VPN to circumvent deep packet inspection?

just clarifying that, it’s a handset sim, tablet use is against the terms as well, they will detect it and suspend service.

Swapping your SIM out of your phone and putting it into anything else that’s not a phone, like a dongle or tablet, isn't allowed on any of our voice plans or on Pay As You Go, and we could suspend your service if it’s detected.

You can only use a phone SIM in a phone. It won't work if you put it any of our other devices. If you want to connect any other device to the Three network you'll need to get one of our Mobile Broadband SIMs by either visiting one of our Three Stores, calling our sales team on 0800 358 8460 or visiting our online store.
