Looking back over usage some months we don't use our 1Gb limit, some months use nothing and some months have gone expensively over. So we think the PAYG option may suit us better. We never stream anything, just info browsing and ancestry research.

Cheapest way to get 3 Mobile Data is:-

Sign up to Quidco.com (£5 a yr)
Buy a PAYG 3 Month / 3Gb Data Sim (via the Quidco Web Site)
http://www.quidco.com/three-mobile-broadband/?ac
The Sim costs £20.49, but you get £12.50 cash back, so the Sim costs £7.99.
Then do the same again after 3 month or the 3Gb are used (DO NOT Top-up), so it costs £31.96 for 1Gb a month for a year (way cheaper than the 12 Month Option)
