Mobile phone users snap up £10 SIM card in bid to avoid price hikes from O2, EE, Vodafone, Three and Virgin Media

From April, many providers are set to increase their rates, in a move which will impact almost anybody with a mobile phone. Suppliers including O2, EE, Vodafone, Three and Virgin Media are all set to increase their prices to align with either CPI (Consumer Price Index) or RPI (Retail Price Index) measures of inflation, which currently stands at more than 10%.

As such, an increasing number of Shoppers are looking for affordable SIM-only deals to try and manage how much they're spending on their phone bill. Smarty, which has built up a reputation for offering affordable and flexible contracts., is currently offering £60GB of data for just £10 in its latest tech deal.

SIM-only contracts are one of the cheapest ways to keep devices connected as users only pay for the data and minutes used as opposed to the cost of a handset and combined interest. The SIM-only contracts provided by Smarty also offer users the option of cancelling the contract if a cheaper deal is found elsewhere.
