Mobile Network Comparison

Here at Mobile Network Comparison, we’re always working hard to give you the best information possible to choose a great PAYG tariff. Unlike other comparison sites, we make sure we cover every option available to ensure that you don’t miss out on an offer. That’s why we look at things like unlimited data and unlimited texts and point out the offers that are truly unlimited as opposed to those that just claim to be.

We also pride ourselves on the articles and features we regularly put out. For example, we’re really chuffed that we’re now able to offer you professionally-cut Giffgaff micro-SIMs posted out to you absolutely free of charge. Best of all, we’ve arranged for you to get £5 free credit on all our micro-SIMs so Giffgaff becomes even better value on your iPhone 4S or iPad. Of course, we also still offer £5 free credit on our regular Giffgaff SIM cards which are also completely free.

We’ve got an update on the new Giffgaff data-only goodybags and have updated our Giffgaff review with all the relevant information. There’s also a great new article about how to get special Gold phone numbers absolutely free by using a deal that Family Mobile offer. Once you’ve chosen your premium number, we have instructions on how to port it away to your preferred network.

We are always on the lookout for new deals and even brand new mobile networks that can save you money. We also go back and check the latest changes in the prices we publish as well as contact networks to get the latest straight from the horses’ mouths. These are some of the many behind-the-scenes updates we’re constantly working on to ensure that you get the latest and most accurate information all over our site especially on our sortable price comparison table. We also update our individual reviews pages regularly with the latest pricing for texts, calls and mobile data. In fact, we even made a small tweak to our list of mobile network reviews so that the networks are ordered alphabetically allowing you to find what you’re looking for quicker.

These are just some of the minor tweaks and little information updates we’re making to the site all the time to help you keep ahead and accurately compare all the mobile networks. And of course, we love reading and replying to your comments every day and try to help in any way we can 🙂

Giffgaff have finally launched their long-awaited data-only goodybag (they call it a “Gigabag”). Promised for months, the new goodybags are designed specially for data devices such as dongles, mobile Wifi hotsopts, iPads and other tablets. Previously, Giffgaff had given unlimited data for anyone on a goodybag costing at least £10 but customers were not permitted to use SIMs in anything other than a phone to access the internet. This meant that it was impossible for internet tablet users to get the fantastic Giffgaff value nor to use their Giffgaff SIMs for tethering. Thankfully, this situation has now been well and truly rectified 🙂

On 23 September, Giffgaff finally officially announced that the much-requested data-only goodybags were coming soon. They also announced the various plans available as well as all the details of the pricing. There are three goodybags being introduced in total:

£5.00 – 500MB data
£7.50 – 1GB data
£12.50 – 3GB data

All the goodybags last for one month and can be bought from your credit balance or with a debit or credit card. You can’t use it in combination with any other Giffgaff goodybag and if it runs out you must wait until the next month but they do give you 50MB free in case you run over your allowance. And overage is charged at just 2p/MB after that.

We’ve had a look around and have to admit that, like their PAYG services, the value offered by these data-only goodybags is pretty much as good as it’s possible to get. In fact, Giffgaff have even admitted that if you use every last drop of data in the goodybags, they’ll actually end up losing money on them. Not a bad deal, eh?

The launch of these new products is a breath of fresh air for anyone in the UK looking for a cheap and simple, no frills PAYG SIM for mobile data. The £12.50 goodybag offering 3GB of data is probably the best deal currently going for mobile broadband on a laptop, dongle or tablet device. If you want to take advantage of this great news, order a free Giffgaff SIM right now or if you want to use it in an iPad, get a free pre-cut micro-SIM instead. And don’t forget, their fantastic offer for £5 free credit is still running if you order it through us.
