Unlimited data
Will we ever see the mobile networks giving Unlimited data even if it's just for People on Contracts.

Yes Three offer unlimited mobile data in the U.K. (although Personal Hotspot is capped at up to 30GB dependent on plan).
Three also used to offer AYCE data on PAYG but ditched that a while ago. |

Giffgaff certainly don't offer anything resembling unlimited data these days.
Usage over 6 GB per month is throttled to a maximum download speed of 0.25 Mbps (less in practice). In addition, heavy use will lead to a ban from buying the pack in future. |

Giffgaff is a huge no no in my eyes unless your happy to have speeds throttled below 1/2Mbps! Completely outrageous how they get away with it.

I know it makes it clear that your first 6gb of your "unlimited" allowance is at 4G speeds and that it also does then scale it back after that, but I wasn't aware they drop the speeds down that low.
https://www.giffgaff.com/sim-only-plans/always-on# 256kbps is pitiful. |

Yes, they even state this on their website.

Stay well clear of NIFFNAFF the worst network out there it might say 3g and 4g but you are lucky to get 2g really slow
unless you are right next door to the O2 mast you might be alright.
