Sorry to contradict you Mel ;) but I'm not long back from Germany with one of those Vodafone sims from Ezikiel, and it turned off at bang on 25Gb.
I've only had it a few months, so not pre August 2021.

Cheers,

Jock. :)
I was talking about non-Ebay contract sims.

But you didn't say that in your post Mel, and I'm neither a mind reader or a clairvoyant. ;)

Jock. ;)

Errrr ... I did say 'contract' ...
You only get that now if you have an old contract (pre 11/8/21) or have one of the expensive ones with 4 extras. The normal contracts don't including it now, just as Three don't.

... I'll let you off and just call you Half-Mystic Meg. :LOL:

I assume you mean 12gb limit, most do that now and some have for a long time even pre-B*.

What deal have you got with Vodafone that gives you more than this?
Just unlimited, you buy a roaming pass for £15 for 2 weeks and then remains unlimited whilst abroad

So it's NOT part of an inclusive contract which is what I thought you meant as you have to buy a roaming pass on top of your contract cost.

Yes but Three is 12 quid per day roaming and Vodafone is 15 quid for 15 days. They all charge now but Three is a rip off. Also Three coverage is rubbish in Europe.. I know from bitter experience

As a "Heads Up" I went for the refund, and sent the required details to Ezikiel by way of Ebay message on 21/11/22.

He did not reply as usual, so I sent another message last night, with the previous one copied and pasted. He responded early this morning confirming receipt, and that it could take up to 10 - 15 working days to receive the refund/s

It always pees me off when vendors receive payments immediately, but yet take weeks to refund folks. :mad:

Cheers,

Same here Jock

I went through ebay to return the 4 i bought last week and got the same email

The first one I purchased in May i got the same one again, I paid via paypal for the purchases so hopefully i’m covered

It’s a bloody shame tbh as they were brilliant

Do you or anyone know of any other deals worth looking at, I need 2 sims for our iphones and a data sim for the van

Al 👍

I don't Al, but I'd be happy to know myself, as I need one for the MiFi in the MH.
For my home router I got a 200Gb Vodaphone sim from Mobiles.co.uk, at £8pcm after cashback. It works a treat for us, allowing monitoring of security appliances via Apps, and streaming Netflix/Prime media, but it won't be used abroad.

What do you actually need for phones and data?
I'd be interested in anything you find for the MiFi use abroad please Mel. :)

Cheers,

Jock. :)

Just browsing on Ebay for sim offers and came across a couple which might interest funsters, I clarified the requirements for using them so can confirm the below is correct:
  • They give unlimited calls, texts & data in the UK and limited data (12gb pcm) in the EU.
  • They don't get activated immediately - eg the 24 months starts counting as soon as you insert it into a phone and start using it however you must do this within 60 days from when you receive the sim.
The cost depends on the duration you want the sim for (could be less £ - see bottom of post):

£45 + £2.50 P&P is for 12 months from activation​
£50 + £2.50 P&P is for 24 months from activation​
£70 +£1.29 P&P is for 36 months from activation​

It would be good option for those who don't want to have a monthly contract or want to have the benefit of unlimited stuff at a much lower cost than you can get it from otherwise, they even work out cheaper than cashback site ones!

I messaged the buyer for more info and also mentioned that I was going to put it on the forum as some of you may be interested and he's come back with the below:

Tell your friend when they are making the purchase they should drop a short note with a reference to: minxysellinggirl so we know the transaction is from your recommendation, we then send them a cashback/discount also reward to you.
I wasn't asking for this but it's good of them to do this.
Bless you

😆

Our 2 iphones Mel we just want to use as normal, 100gb is more than enough tbh

For the van mifi then it’s data only that’s needed for streaming, i’m thinking a minimum of 300gb a month and it would be great if we could find one to give us the full amount when in europe.

I’ve seen the Teikom one at €40 a month but would like to find a cheaper one if possible

I’ve just been looking at that Jock

what does the cashback involve, is it tricky and time consuming to do, i’d rather not have to send emails and invoices at certain times tbh

That's exactly what is expected of you Al, otherwise it works out at £15.00pcm.

Once you've done it a couple of times. it becomes easy. It has to be done on months 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12.
You just download your Vodafone bill for the month you are claiming, and attach it to the claim form on your Mobiles.co.uk account, all online.

Cheers,

Jock. :)

Ah! that’s not too bad then if it can al be done online, I can cope with that tbh, just a matter of setting times in the phone reminder to err! remind me lol.

Would you know if sticking with Vodaphone, who we are with now, you’re able to keep your no., i’m keen to do that tbh but it’s not a massive deal breaker

Al 👍

Yes Al, you can port your number over if you prefer, but as mine were all for data only, I never bothered.

There is a handy My Vodafone App you can download on to your phone, making things easier to access. (y)
Although my sim is in my home router, the phone App gives me control of things.

Cheers,

Jock. :)

Are you intending to.port thr number from the Ekikiel sim? Because that, for me, has been a problem. Only he can get the pac code "after the issue is resolved".

no

i’m with vodaphone atm, have been for years tbh but they tell me if I go with vodaphone from a third party sim provider I can port my no.
Any other provider such as 3 or EE no problem. I’ve actually got both PAC codes from vodaphone already

They’ve offered me 2 deals, unlimited everything for me £20 a month and 140gb for the missus for £10 with no eu roaming 😟

So 30 quid a month for both and keeping our no’s

I’m trying to find an EE deal for similar but with roaming and nothing is coming up 😢

Assuming that's for UK use then you could look at the one I've just got for my phone for 120gb UK use and 15gb EU roaming:

https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/forum/threads/talkmobile-unlimited-calls-texts-120gb-uk-data-15gb-eu-roaming-12-month-contract-£7-95-pcm-after-manual-cashback.274080/

Cashback is very easy to do as Jock explained (just check which months as they differ depending on where you buy the sim) and you have 60 days from the required month's invoice date to submit so no massive rush.

For the van mifi then it’s data only that’s needed for streaming, i’m thinking a minimum of 300gb a month and it would be great if we could find one to give us the full amount when in europe.

That's the tricky one ... I doubt if there's anything that can touch the Tiekom deal, I haven't looked into it as I don't use tons of data when away.

You're better off with the one I've just mentioned above which is cheaper and gives 120gb.

JockandRita

Al
No data roaming at all with Vodafone's cheaper packages so you'd only be able to use your MIFI's data so if you're out and about without it you wouldn't be able to use the internet unless you found free wifi.
