Looking for a new sim only contract. Are there any challenger networks? Not after recommendations over the big existing networks or comments on signal in certain areas and so on.
I think while back I heard about a new network, but they did not provide 4G? If that was a real thing, who were they, and do they offer 4G now?

As for recommends I was on idmobile on a £5mth for 3GB data, 500mins, unlimited txts. They kept on honouring this for years.
Now on a Sky Mobile 3GB data, unlimited calls, unlimited txts which is £6mth, but works out at £27 for the whole year factoring in £45 Quidco cashback.
I use Smarty but Zevvle sounds similar, but at a quick glance it looks like itās a bit more expensive. But I would prefer to be on their EE network
Edit: those are very good deals youāve had

I did try and call up so see if they sky would honour the hidden Ā£3 deal for the same as mentioned in the other sim thread, but they said try calling back as it isnāt in our system atm.
£3 x 12 = £36
Minus £45
= They pay me £9 for the year sounds like winning.
Worth keeping an eye on MSE but doesnāt look like any good deals atm
Zevvle is excellent if the EE network provides sufficient coverage for you (unfortunately it didnāt for me ). Excellent, responsive company, and great app. Service was top notch.
Looking for a new provider and had a few questions about Zevvle, if anyone knows (or if @nbgoodall is around? )
Just wondered if they can offer E-sims for iPhones, (I would like to have two lines, one for personal + data, one with just calls).
And also if itās possible to get a data sim for the Apple Watch? I know EE are a provider, but not sure if Zevvle going through EEās network counts?
Unfortunately, Zevvle doesnāt support eSIM at this time either for the iPhone or Apple Watches.
But if youāre after more information and to keep updated, Zevvle has a forum that runs on Discourse just like here over at: https://community.zevvle.com
I have 3 numbers (family) with Sky Mobile and wouldnāt go elsewhere at this stage - itās a great value service. My own is with Vodafone which is not as good but as itās subsidised by work, I canāt complain
On Voxi here which is a Vodafone company. £10/month for 12 gig & unlimited mins/texts which does me fine. They also give you free stuff most months, got a £25 bundle from MyProtein last month!
Voxi if vodafone is good in your area - unlimited social media and video apps on the £15 - 15gb bundle which is also 5g enabled on this plan upwards. Also has mms included.
Smarty if Three is great in your area - £10 for 30gb data.
I am with Three direct (£12pm for 6m and then £24pm for 6m for unlimited everything) and they just completed their network upgrade in my area and I get a good 60mbps on average most days with no signal issues, so Smarty should be similar (reportedly only gets 60% of the network according to my local Three store rep).
Both come with unlimited calls and texts.
As for To The Moon Mobile - they have a good offer at the moment which is top up £10, provide ID to confirm who you are and get up to £100 credit which would pay the next 10 months.
However, I ordered their sim on the 500mb free data offering and the speeds are poor (30mbps) compared to EE which gives 250mbps on sim only, and then BT giving 150mbps.
