SIM card options

Chadders

Hi all we got our very first caravan a few weeks ago and used my phone to hotspot to the Avtex tv. This worked well but isn’t a long term solution. I have a router and so looking for a sim to get WiFi/mifi. What I don’t want is any form of contract unless it’s adhoc I know you can have 30 day rolling etc and cancel anytime but it’s a faf and generally you need to activate it in a phone.
I’ve thought of pre loaded 12 months etc with 120gb is about £48 from Amazon on EE.
What’s your advice experience thanks
 
We have used 3 SIM for years previously in a TP link. But since doing away with landline at home 5 years ago,we now have a 3 Hub,which when away in Caravan ,unplug at home and take it with us, so when away we get exactly the same use as when at home which is unlimited, at no extra cost.
 
Some people living in their caravans full times use starlink and seem quite happy with it. Personally I have a Falcon wifi router , which has large external aerials for good reception and it sticks to the outside of the caravan , and the 12V power lead can go into the caravan, I have a 12V cigar socket fitted on the outside. The thing I can't get my head around is that various suppliers offer a 'non contract, pay as you go data only SIM' so I signed up with SMARTY at £5/month , but even with the router switched off ( so no data usage) I was charged £5 each month until I cancelled the direct debit. So if anyone knows of a true pay as you go non-contract SIM then please let me know.
 
@IanB1485 3 do a 24 month fixture price sim, you could if you wanted use it all in one day or it will sit there for three months or more maintaining what data is on it, I normally buy two or three at a time, the cards will sit there in a drawer not loosing data until you start using it then you have 24 months to use the data

Smarty! If you set it up not to auto renew doesn't charge for months not used/needed.
My smarty SIM has been dormant since October next month I will get a month of data as I need it for Ireland. I will only have paid for the one month.
This is on a voice/data Sim in the 7 years I've been using Smarty I've never bothered with a data only SIM and I only ever use it for data.
If you want true PAYG with payment per mb/minute/text then GiffGaff but the coverage is not as good.
