Question

What's the difference between £15 and £20 PAYG card?

Hi, 

 

I was comparing the PAYG cards and I saw that:

  • £15 one comes with £20GB of data whereas
  • £20 ones comes with unlimited

however, if you then go to this calculator for fair usage (eg, if we travel to Spain) https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/eu-roaming/fair-usage-policy and you enter £20… you get a limited amount of data to 15.44GB

 

In this case, why would anyone buy the £20 and get 15.44GB rather than the £15 card and get 20GB of data?

 

Or does that calculator not apply with PAYG and we really get unlimited data with the £20 card, so we could go over 20GB in a month (if needed).

 

And on a side note, if we activate the card near the end of the month, eg… day 25th, will the data bundle be valid until the 24th next month?

Hi @mickael28, you’d get 11.58GB with the £15 plan, so the higher plan would still get you more data when abroad.

As for the second part, bundles last for 30 days, so you’re right in what you say.

 

Thank you,

Rory
