“one solution would be fixed line broadband from BT with BT wifi”
Assuming of course his BT Line offers more than 512k - 1mbps!. Two million ADSL subscribers still fail to get 2mbps with some areas not even getting that, been there, done that etc.
I've recently moved back to a Town after fifteen years of living in a rural area which never really moved on from delivering 512k ADSL, having had access to fibre now for around a month I can see why its hard for some on here to grasp that even 360p youtube streaming is still a challenge on some ADSL connections without constant buffering, and so 3G / 4G is sometimes the only option for anybody wanting to connect to 2016.
That said, 100gb - 120gb is a lot of data, and yes you will miss it when its gone. I used around 12GB per month on my MBB ADSL substitute, although I did limit streaming to the bare minimum. However with no copious coffee shops and free wifi points in the Countryside, and such a limited ADSL provision locally, 4G really does make you appreciate every GB of that 12GB used.
I got a £15 / 25GB MBB sim from EE when it was on offer, which was effectively £2 / month less than it would cost me in line rental from BT just for the ability to get their pathetic ADSL, so I was actually saving money and getting a respectable 4G speed into the bargain. Not much help to anybody using 100GB + but just highlighting the very limited options in relation to the internet in some locations, and that using mobile data as opposed to ADSL / Fibre isn't always done through choice or to save a few quid.
