UK Quad Network 6GB / 365 Días

This sim is useful in a number of ways, its easy to use and activate, lasts a whole year in terms of phone use, its only a data sim, but could give a point of emergency contact so long as its via a tablet. So you can can use this sim in an emergency as a point of contact for roaming while travelling. I just stuck it in my tablet, I have wifi, but the actual tablet needs a little bit of data and gives me roaming options I did not have. Also I can use this as a data point for my drone in another phone, as they generally need a small amount of data to use the inbuilt gps. Saves me attaching my phone to the drone during flight time. So it does have a use, if you can find one for it.

This is specifically more suited for emergency use cases like alarm systems or temporary security camera, or alarms that require a gps connection (such as a bike alarm), so for low level data use for a year, it could be quite useful in those modes, if you can find a specific use for it. WIth european coverage, you can take it with you anywhere as an emergency sim for internet/email use should you need it. So handy in a survival kit too.

The one thing I found this to be really useful for is a bike alarm requiring a gps, you need a sim active in it for the bike alarm to be able to reports its locations, so for me this is its value, low data needs, great way to avoid a subscription, good for 365 days.

Pros: Emergency data, point of contact, useful for low data gps devices such as drone use, alarms etc.
Cons: Data amount is quite small, so only useful for emergencies really.

Easy to use, no app needed, web managed

I have a MiFi router, which I use occasionally when my phone is struggling for signal. The issue is, up until now, I've been having to pay monthly for a SIM that I rarely use.

I hadn't realised, until now, that there were SIMs available like this one. This is not tied to a particular network, so you're practically guaranteed to have a signal wherever you are (within reason). What's more, the data doesn't expire for 365 days, which is far longer than most I've seen, which generally expire after a month.

There was literally no setup required at all for this. I put it in the mobile router and it immediately acquired a signal. Works perfectly and makes for an ideal backup.

Not the best value when you think about it but does have vital use cases.

As a normal consumer this works out rather expensive for 6gb of data if you look at this from an amount of data only, where this does play its advantages is that this 6gb of data can be consumed at any point in the 365 days which you will not find on any normal sim only deal, plus the fact it has agreements with the major network providers to switch to the best signal provider gives this a whole lot of redundancy.

This is more suited for emergency use cases like alarm systems or elderly pull cord systems that are fitted in by a family who is taking care of a relative where the total amount of data used would gall way below the total 6gb available without having to worry about monthly contracts.

If you can work out the amount of data you may requer in the 365 days and want peace of mind and assurance of surface then this makes real sense and good value, your use case would have to be specific for you to need one of these sim card deals but as said you can not find this kind of service form anywhere else so is a 5 star product.

Put this data sim in my car. The sim registered immediately and my car started updating apps and map. Lasts for a year. Not sure if 6GB will last me that long.
