    I haven’t found any 30 day contracts that can beat a well negotiated renewal. You just need to be firm in requesting the PAC code and make them work to keep you as a customer.

    I got EU roaming included in my £9/month contract but I do need to get temporary travel packs for other countries.

      If you have the energy to jump through the hoops to get a deal, then great. I can’t face it. When I feel my current deal isn’t right, I just text the number, get the PAC, and disappear, and I love the freedom. I pay £6/month for 5GB and it’s more than enough for me.

      How much data for £9?

      As for roaming, get a local esim. I used AirHub when I travelled to the US and got 5Gb for $4.

      Plenty for Google Maps and WhatsApp.

        For that £9 I get 15Gb of data (including EU roaming). One of my kids gets their phone with unlimited calls/texts + 5Gb of data for £5. I doubt I’m ever going to need more than that as on a recent holiday with heavy use I didn’t even get close to exceeding the usage limits.
