Not sure if this is the right thread, maybe should be in Phone's

Anyway im looking to get a Pay as you Go USB 3G Dongle for emergency use.

Basical i wanted to know what Providers allow the ammount you purchase not expire. ?

Im probably looking at Three or Vodaphone as the providers but open to others if recommended.

Not too sure about the terms of their PAYG service but my voda contract 3g dongle has been brilliant.

I travel away from home a lot for work and it has more than paid for itself as an alternative to hotel wifi, even abroad the 24h access you can buy it often cheaper than what the going rate for wifi is in some places.

Cheers for the Positive advice

Anyone know about the PYG expiry on them ?

I have a Vodaphone 3G card and it's horrible. It regularly disconnects and is very unreliable. When it works i get great speeds but sometimes i can have 3/4 bar signal but get a very slow connection. This is when connecting from central westminster as well!

You can pay £15 for 1GB on Vodafone and it'll never expire.

Sounds like a plan to me.

Cheers.

Wow, a company that takes it's 'prosumers' seriously. It is about time companies started taking their most valuable customers seriously instead of fobbing them off with template emails.
