I just received an email from Revolut about this - joined the waitlist. Seems very cheap so Iāll be interested on which network they go with too.

The cheapest offers tend to use Three so Iād guess it was them.
I would assume itās Three for that price. However, in London, I think Three is faster than EE by a long way.
My wishful thinking would be they go down the route of honest mobile and itās a combination of networks.
Unlikely, but I can dream.

Thatās how their current esim plans work.
For Ā£12.50 a month, get unlimited data, calls, and texts, 20GB for EU & US roaming, and keep your old phone number.
Seems very cheap!!!

Thanks I wasnāt aware they were doing mobile plans, that does seem like a pretty good deal, beats Smartyās Ā£15 unlimited offer that Iām currently on.
Do you know what network the use in the UK? (ie, EE, O2, Three, Voda?)
Revolut will be a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). As an MVNO, it will lease network capacity from a well-established organisation.
Itās the same thing that Tesco mobile does, but cheaper

Thanks ChatGPT, but my question was which network will they use?
Tesco Mobile uses O2, so are you saying Revolut will use O2? (that would be a deal-breaker for me, O2 has the worst coverage where I live)

Hadi Nasrallah told Euronews that Revolut cannot yet reveal its operating partners, but that āsome of them span multiple marketsā.

Itās not specified what network they will partner with. Probably Three/Vodafone as they are due to merge and can afford extra capacity, alongside their EU and US roaming.
I hope itās not O2, and itās unlikely to be EE as theyāre not a huge MVNO provider in the grand scheme.
Tesco, giffgaff, Voxi, smarty, iD mobile, Lyca, Lebara, Spusu, etc are all MVNO. They donāt have their own infrastructure so have to rely on another network.

Thatās strangeā¦ Germany is in EU.. and they have free roaming? Why Revolut will offer only 40GB in EU?
EU countries likely have differing rules between them.
The EU roaming rules are the same as what the UK mobile operators had prior to Brexit - you can roam with your mobile plan but only within a certain limit, you canāt avail of āunlimitedā allowances when in another EU member state and if thereās reason to believe you live in another EU member state to your phone plan, you can be disconnected
The eSIM is supplied by 1Global (who also offer B2B phone plans) and I notice when in the UK it always connects to 3 or Vodafone - if they continue to use the same supplier I guess thatās who it will be

In Ireland, pretty much all āunlimitedā mobile phone plans cost ā¬15 and thatās a āfor lifeā price (so no annual increases).
Sky came in recently and offered the same plan on a ālimited offerā then cranked the price up to ā¬25 for a bit (which is a ripoff compared to everyone else, doubt they got much business on that).
They have since gone back to ā¬15.
If Revolut comes in and offers ā¬12.50 like Germany, thatās probably the best offer here and will be ripe for disruption
