Hello all
I have come to the end of my EE contract that I paid £35 a month on for 30 gigabytes of data.

I'm also due to move house soon and will need broadband, probably fibre, but I'm sure basic fibre would do (I live alone).

EE were very honest that they were not able to match other pay-as-you-go providers such as smarty who are offering £10 a month for 30gb.

However, they could offer 120gb for £20pcm. In addition, if I had a delay in getting my broadband sorted in my new place they would also fund any overspend on data (I teach remotely currently so will need internet access from day one). 

They also said that they do Wi-Fi. However, they prefer to offer BT.

I have looked at comparison size and BT really don't fair well, even when compared to other main providers such as virgin.

in an ideal world I wonder if a company would offer a package for pay as you go mobile broadband TV (well, sports, so Sky or BT).

Has anyone seen any? 

Currently at the moment I am thinking about just being as financially savvy as possible, loose game for the £10 smarty SIM deal and whichever fibre package is the cheapest in my area.
