Anyone use this in the daily phone? Seen that the use the EE network which has always been the strongest where I live. Do EE throttle speeds through them?
 
I use them, decent signal compared to Vodafone for me, which was always dropping out. Speed wise, I never have problems, I don't know if they throttle, but YouTube and downloading is all fine for me.
I just ran a speed test, but my signal in the house isn't super strong, only 40mbps.
Sure I've seen fast 5g speeds, when I've run tests, in the hundreds.
 
Used them for a few years now and have a similar experience to rodders, I've just done a 4g speed test at home and got 110mbps.
 
I had the opposite experience but solely down to networks. Here Vodaphone is stronger than EE. I was with them for a couple if years but now have migrated to Lebara at £3.99 pm.1pMobile were good though.
 
Superb.
I'm on a £10 every 4 months contract as a spare sim for when I'm deep in the middle of Scotland and no other provider works.
I keep saying I'm going to have the £10 monthly contract but haven't made the switch yet.
 
I'm currently looking to switch to either 1p or Mozillion, will probably go with 1p.

I'm with Vodafone currently and just seem to get no data in places at certain times, even though I have a decent signal, so wondered if it's congestion or something like that? I did wonder if it was my phone but I've recently replaced it, so that's ruled out.
 
Presently with 1p. Has been good apart of an EE local network signal issues which was resolved over a weekend.

Presently porting to spusu as EE 5G signal etc also, but cheaper.

To be honest I use less than 10gb and that's with streaming football at least once a week.

Ditto, think could get away with 4 or 5, but if hotspotting would exceed. Monthly sims and data are so much cheaper these days there is not much in it.

Used to pound bt genie for texts back in the day, now it is all data.
 
Been looking at this to replace an EE family plan as it includes roaming, my current plan is a legacy one but it's not clear if roaming is still there, or if I'd have roaming if a new sim was added to the contract. Not too worried about speeds or total usage but the half price multi sim unlimited bundle does appeal for simplicity, unless there's anything better.
 
30-day rolling so make sure you go back onto the site from time to time. I signed up £15 for 50GB, they just keep renewing that price. Now they have £10 for 50gb. So you have to manually change the plan.
 
I told my best mate about 1p Mobile and it being EE so he will get it everywhere in the UK.
He got the Unlimited Sim and raved about it.
Going to different Caravan Parks all over the UK he's become quite popular because if you haven't got EE you won't get a signal in many places so he sells his password for £10 a week to different people and he puts the sim in a 5G router :)
Last week he said him and his wife have just renewed their phone contracts so I naturally presumed they would both go on 1p Mobile, no they have both signed to Vodafone where they know their phones don't work in a lot of places :)
What a gammon.
 
I saw a post from a guy on another forum. He had done a comparison between EE and 1P Mobile from the same location and using the same phone. He said that the data speed and throughput was identical on both. Looks like 1P don't throttle at all.

Unlike EE did.
I was on a £10 for 10GB with EE and about a month later decided to do a speed test, it went no faster than 30mbps.
I rang up complaining and the guy said that the contract I was on was throttled but it was still a 5G connection :eek:
He said fellow staff shouldn't have been selling it to people without telling them so I said just flick a switch, he said "Computer Says No".
So put me on another contract where I can get full speed 5G and the most Gb for £10 but he said "Computer Says No" but he can cancel my contract because it shouldn't have been sold to me.
I went to the corner shop, got an EE £10 sim which was 15GB and no throttle :cry:
It amazes me I could do that but staff can't hit a switch back at base.
