Use your SMARTY plan
If your plan includes calls and texts, they work just like home. They’re unlimited with no extra fees.
Subject to our fair use limit, you can use up to 12GB of data each month out of your monthly allowance. If you need more data, you can buy a data add-on."I checked last week as our Grandson has a Smarty SIM only deal.

AD/Ina D, Think that the 12gb data limit applies to all 3/Smarty deals, even those that they no longer offer.

Thanks AandJ
I was sitting in the car waiting for OH to appear from a shop and the post took so long to upload that I just gave up and supposed that it never arrived. Thanks for informing. The 12gb and any add-on will be enough for our use together with Mrs WNs allowance on a monthly EE plan we have.

Posted on 12/03/2022 09:45 byMy understanding is (possibly wrong) 12 gb for roaming and 12 for uk use.
InaD
Got nowhere with thier website or online chat wasnt answed. I had sent for the sim from amazon and since the packaging was different I broke the seal and read the instructions inside and that's where I discovered it's no longer 24gb roaming .
I retuned it and amazon refunded me within the hour even though the item would still have been at the Hermes drop off point.
Am looking at a Vodaphone product now.

Posted on 12/03/2022 22:31 by InaDThanks AD, useful info. Good service from Amazon. I have tried to log on here before now, but got nowhere, so gave up. At the moment we're partway through a 24gb three sim, used about 9 so far. Will also look at alternatives.

Posted on 03/02/2022 09:47 by SteveLI personally think too much is made of lack of internet connection. There can’t be many places in the UK where internet access either mobile or hot spot can’t be achieved with a minimal journey. I noted on the latest update of O2’s coverage checker that it is now even available at Altnaharra. In the case of this latest addition of the great savings guide, it makes every sort of sense not to publish a hard copy when it is still being compiled. Hopefully in the near future they will also offer a fully digital membership like the C&CC, who have just taken £14 less on the direct debit than this club.

Folks might be interested in Lebara network. Offers big data allowances at a small price. It was designed primarily to offer connectivity to refugees, migrants, overseas workers. I think it is part of Vodaphone. OH decided to give it a try as he wanted more data. No contract, you can vary what you pay/what data you need on a monthly basis. OH has been using it since before Xmas, and it’s been really good he says. No problems with watching MOTD online when away😁 He is using it with a new model iPhone and tethering his iPAd. We haven’t used it, but supposed to be good on international calls.
