Major network TRIPLES data on its SIM-only plans – get 300GB for just £20p/m
THOSE of you considering switching networks have a brilliant opportunity to upgrade your SIM plan. Voxi is currently offering an incredible deal, with its 100GB SIM-only plan tripling to 300GB for just £20 a month. 1 Voxi, 100GB 300GB data for £20/month (Unlimited social, music, and video use) BUY FROM VOXI I keep a close eye on SIM-only deals, and this one from Voxi is easily one of the best to land in a while. Instead of cutting prices, Voxi has taken a different approach, tripling the data on two of its most popular plans, without raising the monthly cost. Deals like this offer serious value, especially if you're after more data without spending more. For heavier users, the 300GB plan at £20 a month strikes a great balance between generous data and solid value. It's a smart pick if you burn through gigabytes streaming, scrolling, or gaming, but don't quite need to pay the premium for unlimited. If you're after something lighter, the 25GB plan has also been bumped up to 75GB for just £12 per month, a great option for more moderate users. One of the deal clinchers is that many of Voxi's plans come with data-free use of social media, music, or video apps. This means you can spend hours scrolling through TikTok, streaming Spotify, or bingeing on Netflix without worrying about eating into your data. If you're not a heavy user but want plenty of data to play with, Voxi is a network worth considering. And since Voxi runs on Vodafone's network, you can expect reliable coverage wherever you are. Like many smaller SIM providers, Voxi piggybacks on the Vodafone network, which recently joined forces with Three, making the network stronger than ever. It's always worth checking your area with Voxi's coverage map, so you can be confident of a strong connection before signing up. Best Voxi SIM-only deals Voxi have a selection of SIM-only plans for every kind of data user, many of which either come with free social, music, or video use. Voxi's SIM-only plans run on rolling 1-month contracts, so there's no long-term commitment. You can switch or cancel at any time, which is ideal if you like to keep your options open. These boosted deals are currently set to end on July 17th, so there's only a limited window to lock in the savings. It's shaping up to be a strong month for savvy SIM shoppers, too. I've spotted a similar Smarty double data SIM-only deal, offering 200GB for just £12 per month, and shares the same network coverage. If you're eyeing a new handset instead, there are some tempting Android offers floating around. One major provider is throwing in a free tech bundle worth £410 when you grab the latest Honor phone, with plans starting from £20 a month. I've pulled together a full roundup of the best SIM-only deals across all the major networks, so you can find the right plan for your budget.

Mobile network offering DOUBLE data SIM-only deal – get 200GB for £12p/m
For anyone looking to switch networks, it's a great time to upgrade. Smarty has some seriously good data boosting SIM-only plans right now, with up to 200GB of data for just £12. 1 Smarty SIM-only deal, 100GB 200GB data for £12/month BUY FROM SMARTY I've covered SIM-only deals for a while now, and over time, you learn to spot the real gems from the overhyped fluff. This latest offer from Smarty is easily one of the better ones to pop up in recent months. Right now, Smarty is running two impressive promotions that boost data without hiking up the price. If you're someone who chews through mobile data, these are well worth a look. The first is its 16GB plan, which has just been bumped up to 50GB per month, all while staying at just £8. The real eye-catcher, though, is Smarty's 100GB plan, which has now been doubled to 200GB for just £12 a month. That's a huge amount of data for a great price, especially since there's usually a big leap between low GB plans and Unlimited. Deals like this make Unlimited plans feel less necessary, and are ideal if you're not a heavy user but still want peace of mind. It's also a great time to join Smarty, as the provider runs on Three's network, which is in line for some major improvements following Three's merger with Vodafone. That means better coverage and faster speeds are likely on the horizon as the networks start sharing infrastructure. Best SIM-only deals from Smarty If you want to spend less and use less data, or if Unlimited is what you need, Smarty has plenty of other budget-friendly deals going right now. Smarty plans are all rolling 1-month contracts, meaning you're never locked in and can switch or cancel easily. It's another reason the network is a favourite for budget-savvy shoppers. And if you're in the market for a new handset too, this week has delivered some tempting extras in the Android world. One major provider is offering a free tech bundle worth £410 when you pick up the latest Honor phone, with plans starting from just £20 per month. If these deals aren't quite the right fit, check out our roundup of the best SIM-only deals across the big networks.

Three savvy tips to dial down the cost of your next smart phone purchase
MOBILE phones are one gadget that most of us struggle to do without. But although they may be smart, they can also be very expensive. 7 Here are some ways to dial down the costs . . . SIM-ONLY: You can often save cash by buying a phone outright and opting for a cheap rolling SIM-only contract. This is much cheaper than signing up for a deal incorporating the cost of a handset. Use a comparison site such as to look for the best SIM-only deals based on how much data you need each month. Don't buy a plan with more data than you need. You can easily find out how much data you use under the settings on your phone. Often the best deals are away from the big, well-known brands EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. If you travel often it can be worth looking at a smaller provider which offers free roaming within the EU — many of the big networks now charge for this. BUY REFURBISHED: Rather than opting for a new handset, try a second-hand or refurbished phone professionally fixed up to meet set standards. Phone makers including Apple offer refurbished models, as do networks such as O2 and Giffgaff. Handsets are graded by visible wear and tear. Easy ways to slash your mobile bill You will pay most for a model that looks pristine but you can save even more if you don't mind a few scratches on the device. KNOW YOUR NETWORK: Once you have settled with a provider, make the most of any perks that come with being a customer. Cheap coffee, discounted cinema tickets, free subscriptions and early access to concert booking are just some of the benefits you can get through mobile firms. When your contract is up, try haggling down costs rather than staying put. Many providers will happily discount your costs rather than see you walk out the door All prices on page correct at time of going to press. Deals and offers subject to availability.
