As promised, I've updated my PAYG mobile bundle deals website mobile-networks-uk.weebly.com
The changes are mainly due to giffgaff's alterations to their Goodybag (30 day bundle) range, which now includes 4G as standard across all Goodybags - Which is a true rival to GT Mobile.
Personally, I feel that the Goodybags do offer good value, especially the £15 Goodybag which has had a massive injection of 500 additional minutes. The main boost is of course that all Goodybags now have 4G.
The biggest con however is giffgaff's "unlimited data" Goodybag; the £20 Goodybag with "Always On Data". Strictly speaking, data is unlimited, but after the initial 6GB of 4G data has been used up, the speed is throttled to 256kbps between 08:00am and midnight.
256kbps is EDGE data speeds, or close to what you could expect from a 3G phone in 2006.
This £20 Goodybag isn't good value at all now, and effectively removes giffgaff from the ranks of network operators who actually offer unlimited data.
The £20 Goodybag is perhaps most suitable for those who are real night owls, such as people working on night shifts with ample free time (when their bosses aren't looking).
