The big sell here is that the new 4G SIM-only plans now have inclusive calls and texts when you’re in the EU, however some plans have become more expensive after the initial promotional period. The image they’ve sent us is a tad small, but the discounted deals are for three months, whereupon some become £1 more expensive than they were before these changes. These are all 12 month offerings and you can see exactly what has changed in our earlier story.
Put simply, after the 3 month promo period expires..
– The previous 2GB per month deal becomes £1 more expensive (was £16.99, now £17.99)
– The previous 4GB per month deal becomes £1 more expensive (was £20.99, now £21.99)
– The previous 6GB per month deal becomes £1 more expensive (was £23.99, now £24.99)
However you do now have a choice a new 8GB and 16GB package, plus they’ve added European roaming.
As this is EE, you get a very decent 4G footprint and speeds of up to 60Mbps if you choose one of the 4GEE deals.
