    I'm still a little confused with the offerings that I see WRT the 3/Huawei deal.

    If I signed up for the following:



    Would this include everything I need to access the internet for a month without paying for an additional SIM package?  The above only costs £25.  Or is the SIM pre-loaded into the unit?  I'm not mobile savvy at all as you can tell by this question.  The above package only includes data but no talk/texts which is fine as it is the temporary internet capability that I really after.  What happens after 1 month?  Would I need to give them 1 months notice on day 1 of activation? 

     EDIT:  Having looked at it a bit more it looks as though you need to give 30 days notice when your contract length is up (at 1 month) but still comes out at £50 over 2 months if I am correct.

    My brother has recently split from his wife, and is now living away from the marital home.  He has gone with the 3/Huawei deal the OP mentioned, and is very happy with it, doing everything which the Plusnet deal he originally had.
    Well I decided to go with the 3 Huawei deal - I shall get it up and running today,when it arrives then see what it is like at my present address and see how it fares to my current FTTC package with Plusnet.  I can then see what it is like at my new address (only 6 miles away) as well on a drive-by.  The indications are that I should get a usable internet connection from it and if I get the same sort of speeds and connectivity that I used to get from ADSL BB (before my current FTTC) then I shall be happy.  I shall probably sign up in September for a more comprehensive package from Virgin (inc TV and  a mobile package) depending on how good (or bad) connectivity is with this unit.
