Looking for PAYG with bundles that includes roaming to Switzerland and Germany (but not THREE)

Hi,
I am contemplating traveling to Switzerland and Germany in a few weeks time. I currently have GIFF PAYG where I can buy a bundle of texts, minutes and data for use at home in the UK and it will also allow me to use the bundle in Germany but unfortunately Switzerland is not included in the roaming destinations. 
I have used THREE before to achieve similar in Switzerland but their website is appalling and often sends me in blind loops so I wish to avoid them. 
I'm looking for suggestions for suggestions for other networks that will enable me to do this. 
Thank you

    1p mobile includes both.

    Thank you. I'll look into them. Do they do PAYG where you buy a one month bundle of minutes, texts and data that you use in Switzerland and Germany?

    No, I am with them myself. They basically operate the same way as GiffGaff in that you pay a fixed amount each month, no contract, switch every month to different bundles if you wish. They do offer PAYG, but not sure if it’s worthwhile.
    £10 per month gets you unlimited mins, 50 GB data, of which 14 GB can be used roaming. They use the EE network with no speed restrictions on 5G, in my village I get around 200 Mb/s download in the garden, about half that indoors.

    The sweet spot pricewise with 1p is the £10/month deal.

    I think this is the deal you mention:

    This looks exactly what I am after - it's always good to hear from an actual user. Do you have to leave credit card details with them and they automatically take the payment monthly or can you opt to just make a payment for whichever month you choose? Or, even better, can you topup using vouchers bought eg from a supermarket?

    I have a £10 auto top up. This is what the page looks like. There is a 50 GB (£10) boost too. Forgot to mention that.
