Thanks to those who have given advice, it's much appreciated.
Just out of interest, how much data would I need if myself or my sister were checking the cameras 3 to 4 times a day?

A lot less than 500GB !
Unlimited data is only £25/month with Lebara ! - Whats the benifit/advantage of the Scancom one ?

Difficult to know exactly, I would start with 5GB and check data usage after 1st month
We had 8GB at the time and that was fine

Yes if you buy the Tapo smart plug as well. You can turn the power off and on remotely.

Oh, that is a typo.
It is 2028.
I currently have O2 classic 321 PAYG for my main phone number, then this for data.
I asked everyone contact me on Whatapp…

People not realising that the Cisco001 link is £40 for the deal and not per month!
Read the link, it says
(Effective Price £1.72pm)

Move along, nothing to see.
