Title: Sim only deals
Post by: TheDvEight on March 30, 2022, 10:38:13 AM
(hopefully this is in the correct section of the forum)

My phone deal ends in two months and I'm looking to get a sim only deal on a monthly rolling contract with unlimited minutes/texts and some data ( don't need a lot somewhere between 10-20gb) I'm just wondering what companies you guys use and if you would recommend them. I'm currently on ID Mobile and would like to switch from them to someone else, I've done a bit of digging on the internet but wanted first-hand accounts of your experiences with your mobile provider.

Cheers

Same as Toby, been with giffgaff for something silly like 10 years.

Use the affilliate link to get an extra £5. (disclaimer: I would also get £5, feel free to see if Toby provides link, he was here first ;) )

I'm leaning more towards giff gaff as they are a company I know and have used before although there are two companies cheaper than them

You can try Giff Gaff, or there's Giff Gaff and of course never forget the old favourite, Giff Gaff.

So much choice :D

[ATTACH=CONFIG]6063[/ATTACH]1/ Check your mobile phone signal here first: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/. Signal strength may be weak in your area. Make note of the ones with the strongest signal or without any signal warnings.

2/ Join a cashback site like top cashback or Quidco them go to your chosen deal

3/ Search for your chosen deal to then head back to top cashback or Quidco to be referred to your deal by them (they give you some cashback as they are paid to refer you to the network) or use The links above the chaps have posted.

4/ The best deal I have found recently is here: unlimited minutes, texts and 30gb of data. It’s on a Vodafone MVNO without sending off bills it’s £14 a month. Redeem the bills, go via top cashback and you reduce the plan to £44 for a 24 month plan! Make sure you buy just after the rpi/cpi date though.
