All,

   I am trying to find details of O2's 4G data only contracts as I am looking to see if they have an offering in line with the 4GEE home 4G broadband (200GB for £60 - sounds great but I dont have a reliable signal for EE, even with an LTE ariel).

 

I live in the countryside and get less than 2Mbps broadband speed -- fibre is coming to my area but not for 18-48 months at the earliest. My current ISP provided a router which supports a 4G dongle as a backup line, and using an O2 payg 4G dongle connected to it, I have managed to get constant speeds between 11Mbps to 22Mbps.

 

I have seen other sites mention O2 do a 100GB deal and state they offer even larger deals direct (ref https://ruralbroadband.co.uk/4g-home-and-business/), however I cannot find any mention of these traffis so hoping someone can point me in the right direction as unfortunately the largest I can see is 40GB for £30 per month

 

many thanks

It looks like Rural Broadband buy wholesale from o2 and then chop there bundles into 20-100Gb packages that they resell to consumers

The largest bundle o2 do for data is 40Gb @ £30 per month billed by o2..

Check some re-sellers as they often offer more data.

Just for the community benefit I was advised by rural broadband :

 

With O2 the 100GB package we can get is £75 per month, we can also do a 200GB package but this doubles the cost as it is effectively a 100GB SIM with a reoccurring 100GB Bolt on.

 

I did also come across this site https://airinternet.co.uk/ which claims to offer unlimited but requires a specially modified router:

Direct from Air Internet:  Unlimited Data upto 1000GB - £25pm *upfront cost of £199.

 

Per their ebay item (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Unlimited-Data-4G-Router-Sim-card/173214811052?hash=item28546843ac:g:uXUA...)

Unlimited Data sim with either EE, Vodafone, Three or O2.  We are offering two things, access to a deal that isn't publicly promoted by our major UK partner 4G provider and the hardware listed above.  Our hardware is modified so that you will receive unlimited data from our partner 4G provider. 

 

I would love for this to be a true offer, however I cant help but feeling this cannot be legitimate as they insist you need to use their modifed router and at the price stated surely must be exploiting a loophole in the carriers system -- if anyone knows differently please feel free to comment!
