SIM only contracts

What is a SIM only deal?

A SIM only deal is basically the same as a normal monthly phone contract. The only difference is that the deal doesn’t include a phone. All you get is a SIM card which is ready to give you a certain amount of minutes, data, and texts every month. It’s up to you to buy the phone to go with it!

      Hi Richard,

      Thanks for getting in touch with Finder. It’s nice to hear about your planned travel to the UK. 😃

      As a comparison website, we are not permitted to provide specific recommendations. However, you can check your options on this page. On this page, you will know more about how to set up a local SIM card in the United Kingdom.

      There are four main phone operators in the UK: EE, Vodafone, O2, and Three. All of these operators are tried and tested and provide quality services. All of them also offers unlimited text and data packages. So, the choice is ultimately yours to make. What I can suggest is for you to research your options, read about each operator, and ultimately determine which one would meet your budget, needs, and preference.

      I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.

      Have a wonderful day!

      Cheers,
      Joshua

      Hi Sarah,

      Thank you for getting in touch with Finder.

      Currently, we do not have a page where you may compare data-only mobile plans. I suggest that you check out providers you may see on this mobile plans page to help you find the data-only plan that would suit your needs.

      I hope this helps.

      Thank you and have a wonderful day!

      Cheers,
      Jeni

      Thanks for your question.

      While we are unable to give a recommendation on a specific option as we are a comparison website and general information service, you may check out this page for prepaid SIM card plans and/or data packs that you may use in Israel. Please check out the features, benefits, and services offered by the listed telco providers on the said page to see if they suit your needs. You may also check out their websites for more relevant information about their SIM prepaid plans.

      I hope this information helped.

      Kind regards,
      Bella

    I am moving to London for uni and am looking for a sim package. I am searching for one that could give me unlimited data, texts and calls.

    What is the best carrier both for service and price?

      Hi Maher,

      Thanks for your question.

      If you are looking for a sim package, you may check and compare your options here.

      We cannot recommend a specific brand as the best option depends on your needs and budget, but our table has the necessary details that will help you choose a package.
