I've got my kids on 12 month simo deals.
The youngest is on the basic 100 mins/100mb (does OK for him at his age) and my eldest on the 500 mins/500mb. However, she keeps running out of data (don't they all?) so 1gb would be nice slight_smile

When I got the Note 4 on the 17th I took out the £15 big bundle to take advantage of the 4G. I had 4G on the 17th but since then the best I can get is H and data speeds are pathetic. More work is scheduled on the masts on the 21st, 25th and 26th but I've lost patience with the coverage and continual down time in my area.

I called up for my PAC this mornuing and awaiting the port to EE whose 4G speeds I have tested out and more than adequate.

For the same £15 I get twice the data, 300 extra minutes, unlimited texts....and 4G!

o2 really need to look at their tariffs again I'm afraid.

Hi @Toby

I've used the Payg sim Free Sims link a few times.

The last was to use in one of the 'Try The Tech' devices.

The page is easy to navigate around and the sims in my experience come through in 3-4 working days.

I've not used the sim only link myself to order a SIM card ,but I do use it to both look at the current deals ,and to add into a relevant thread here if someone needs help.
