    I took things into my own hands. Once my 12 months SIM only contract was up almost two years ago I moved over to a rolling 30-day. I will not go back to the big players on anything more than 30 days. Fuck the greedy bastards.

      Don’t they offset their losses on a thirty day SIM by charging you more per month?

      Who are you with?

        There some low cost MVNOs that offer rolling plans. No frills but cheaper than major networks.

        Giffgaff have recurring “goodybag” system that can be quite cheap. They keep costs low through things like having minimal customer support.

        60Gb is £10 per month, 30 day rolling contract.

          No doubt these are decent deals but if you look at their website and compare like for like:

          • 30GB 12 month contract £7.95 / month
          • 30GB 1 month contract £8.95 / month

          https://talkmobile.co.uk/sim-only

          Edit: Err, actually they have two options with the same terms at different prices for the 30GB 1 month contract. The second is as you’ve noted, £7. WTF?
