Hi all,

I'm currently with Giffgaff but been having network issues plus the mobile data isn't that good nowadays either. Is there a good network anyone can recommend with no data roaming charges either? 

Thanks

    Smarty offer some good value PAYG and allow free roaming in Europe (up to 12GB a month fair usage):

    There is also 1p Mobile, they use the EE network and have free roaming to both Europe and Channel Is/I of Man.

    The top up arrangement with 1p is not as straightforward as Giffgaff. It is very similar but not as easy to chop and change monthly data amounts as it was with Giffgaff... or at least I don't think it's as straightforward.

    Just click on 'show all deals' and tick the appropriate boxes (the roaming option is at the bottom)

    It can make quite a difference where you want to roam. A lot of deals offer roaming in eu but get expensive if you want to go further afield.
