If you need a stop-over SIM plan, just want something cheap, or if you're not a fan of getting involved in a contract, a pay as you go SIM deal could be the best option for you.

And right now, Vodafone has a promotion on that makes it the perfect option for pay as you go SIM only deals. Across all of its plans, you can currently secure five times the data normally on offer.

While this takes effect on a number of deals, the £10 option feels like the best choice to us. With the increased data cap, you're getting 15GB (up from 3), 250 minutes and unlimited texts.

With all of these offers, you still get access to Vodafone's roaming features, its VeryMe reward scheme and more. In other words, you're getting all the benefits of a Vodafone contract without having to be in one.

What are the benefits of being on Vodafone?

There are a few benefits to being on Vodafone, but the most obvious is its use of VeryMe. This is a rewards app that comes with Vodafone, allowing you to receive free coffees, get discounted film tickets, enter competitions and more.

On top of that, Vodafone offers the ability to roam in 48 EU countries and over 104 other destinations (with a small extra cost). And with all Vodafone SIM and mobile plans, you'll be getting access to both 4G and 5G depending on which phone you use.
