Hey, yes i have used them before and I currently have 3 family members using them. The data is truly unlimited but you must have minimum 50p credit for it to work off-bundle.

[duffman25]

are they reliable

It's 3G only right?

deal breaker at the moment tbh.

May as well look at Lyca who offer 5GB of 4G and unlimited 2G data.

To be fair Three is 3G only for the vast majority, seen as they have decided not to bother rolling out a 4G network of any note

They have the same amount of population coverage as o2 and Vodafone?

And what does Three have to do with this? Now Mobile use EE I believe.

They seem reliable to me, not had any issues personally.

And yes - Now Mobile use EE's 2G & 3G network.

I must be missing something, where does it say unlimited handset data?

Our unlimited data offer is truly unlimited, but is only for personal use on your mobile phone, not for commercial or automated use, nor for using your phone as a modem to connect other devices such as laptops and tablets (tethering) and excludes roaming use, video calls and peer to peer. Where you appear to us to be using data for one of these purposes, we reserve the right to withdraw the unlimited offer, suspend or disconnect you.

[DevonBloke]

A better deal than EE themselves as far as the unlimited data is concerned but of course there are very few (myself included) people who use more than say, 5GB just on a handset.
Great for those that do though.

At the moment while 3 still offer AYCE data on their All In One 15 (which I am covered until 4th or 5th of March) a switch to Now Mobile is not really necessary for me right now.

[duffman25]

I was amazed when I phoned them being the sort of network they are to have a uk call center with a very friendly guy on I got.

[rasseru16]

Now Mobile is a genuine network but the only negatives I can say about the MVNO is that they don't seem to state anywhere about having to keep a minimum 50p credit on your account for the data bundles to work, however you do get 10% free credit if you top-up online by card.

The other negative I have to say about them is calling their call centre by dialling from your Now Mobile handset seems to get cut off a lot and is almost impossible to get through to them, this may not be the case now as not had to call them.

[duffman25]

does any one know how now do the unlimited data I got the £20 bundle today and its saying 1.4gb data in the account and not unlimited is that's what its meant to be

Give them a ring and get them to check this out for you, it could be a system glitch and they will rectify it for you.

[Gigabit]

My SIM arrived today and I didn't realise until I re-read this thread that Now Mobile uses EE as opposed to Three.

The question is: if Now Mobile, an MVNO, can offer unlimited data, why can EE not?

[duffman25]

its same with 02 and giffgaff 02 don't giffgaff do on the high value bundles always seems to be small networks who offer more

[Gigabit]

Giffgaff is "unlimited" though whereas this is unlimited.

[duffman25]

I would not touch giffgaff They are a rubbish network with problems a lot of the time slow Internet and they are vry controling over the unlimited data.

[david16]

What's the quality of the 3G signal like with nowpayg for streaming tunein and youtube on smartphone for anyone that's used it?

People bluetooth tethering their giffgaff 3G sim card to their samsung smart tv, lap top or PC and streaming youtube at the highest HQ resolution that the giffgaff 3G sim could allow was what Giffgaff were allegedly warning their extreme heavy users were using when their usage exceeded x number of GB's.

[duffman25]

I have been using the my player pro and tunein app fine so far all seems to work and good speed levels .

[rasseru16]

Speeds are fully uncapped on Now Mobile so DC-HSPA possible, never had issues with internet performance when i used them before.

[duffman25]
