One-month agreements, slightly dearer per month, cancellable at any point.
You can leave whenever, which is exactly what an unproven address, a possible house move or a new network requires. Most budget brands sell nothing else.
You pay a small premium for that freedom, and promotional pricing on rolling plans changes more often.
Take rolling whenever anything about your situation is unproven. The premium is cheap insurance against a two-year mistake.
We are independent: nothing for sale, no access to your account, and we will never ask you for a security code. We will read an offer with you, explain a clause, or talk a switch through.

Genuinely cheaper per month, and any early-exit charge is disclosed and itemised automatically when you request a PAC — so nothing is hidden.
Circumstances change: house moves, job changes and mast changes all outlast a discount. And the end date is easy to forget, after which the old price simply continues.
Take a fixed term only where signal and address are both settled — and diary the end date on the day you sign.
Unmetered on the handset domestically across all four mast owners.
No meter to watch, no overage risk, and genuinely honest at home. Three has priced it lowest among the mast owners for several years.
It bends in three places: tethering caps on some plan generations, brief queueing at extremely saturated masts, and fair-use ceilings abroad. Most people also buy far more than they use.
Buy it only if three months of measured usage justify it — and read the tethering clause on your exact tier if you work from a laptop.
Rollover banks, application exemptions, loyalty pricing and per-unit billing.
All real features with real value: Sky banks unused data for years, VOXI exempts selected apps, Tesco links pricing to loyalty, 1pMobile charges only for consumption.
They are frequently treated as magic rather than as pricing, and each carries conditions that change over time.
Convert every mechanic into an effective cost per usable gigabyte, then compare like with like.
Spend caps, cash-terms rise disclosure and the annual review.
Every network offers a spend cap free of charge; since January 2025 mid-contract rises must be stated in pounds and pence before signature; and ten minutes a year of comparison catches silent drift.
Almost nobody uses any of them. The cap sits switched off, the rise clause goes unread, and out-of-contract prices drift upward unchallenged.
Set the cap on activation day, photograph the rise clause at purchase, and diary a ten-minute review once a year.
