    Mobile Broadband (again)

    Ok, I'm about to take a flat for about 3 months. Doesn't have a phone line and it's expensive to get one in for that period.

    But I need broadband for work, emails etc, plus bit of general surfing.

    Coverage of the post code seems to be Vodafone and 3. o2 "don't recommend" orange and T-mobile say "no coverage".

    I don't want a long contract, so does anybody use either Voda or 3 pay as you go offering (neither seem to offer a rolling 30 day).

    Cheers.

    I did use Vodafone on PAYG at the beginning and then when it had proven itself, moved to contract to save money. Its a good service. I bought a SIM card and data card on ebay and used that to start - or if yiu have a 3G mobile you could always use that as a modem.

      I have discovered:-

      3 do a dongle preloaded with 12gb valid for up to a year for 100 quid. Then I can top up with 30 day validity of 1gb, 3gb, of 7gb for 15-25 quid.

      Voda do the contract at £20 for 3gb on a 30 day rolling.

      I think I'll try 3 first and then fallback to voda if need be.

      Cheers.
