Anyone use mobile broadband at home?

I’m tempted to get one of these three unlimited thingys, and link that up to my PS4, to watch Now TV. Thought being £20 a month for broadband and the occasional NowTV is going to be much cheaper than continuing to pay £60 for Virgin Media.

Thoughts?

    Yes.
    Although I've only got about 22MB at home with three.

    If you are not sure about the speed, get a free 200MB data sim from three to check the speed.
  • Cheers all, I have mates on 3 in Edinburgh, and the signal is good. Like the sound of the quidco idea, will look it up!
