iPad data plans?
I've looked all over and can't seem to find what i want. Is there a PAYG deal for the iPad like on a mobile? as in you only top up when you run out/get low?

I know what you're after and the 'three' deals seem to be the closest with a 1 or 3GB top-up that is valid for 3 months. I have a T-mobile dongle that I top-up the credit and then buy however many days access I need when I need it - https://www.t-mobile.co.uk/shop/ipad2/micro-sim/

Cheers for your help mate, looks like 3 is the one to go for. It's coverage really too, I mean it's irrelevant how good it is at home as it runs on Wi Fi. I suppose these days they're all pretty much as good as each other and if you can't get a signal then tough

I've just swapped to 3 from O2 and get much better coverage in my area (South Essex).
Just ordered a 3Gb/3month sim on the 3 network for £11.15 delivered from Amazon. Bargain!

Three do clone off everyone else's masts and buy up all the capacity which is why they have such good coverage but also can be a bit touchy if the mast owner's network is busy

I was in the same boat! After some googling I bought an orange 3G phone pay as you go sim with £20 preloaded for £12 delivered off the bay. Cut it to size of a micro sim (I used a sim cutter) put it in an type in the Vnn settings & away I go, not sure on the costs but I just use it as a just incase thing so I do not have the issue of paying monthly or it expiring.

Update.....
Bought the 3 card from Amazon on Sunday night. Arrived this morning. Proper iPad 3G micro sim so no cutting required!
3 months/3 GB for £11.15 delivered.
Get Christmas out of the way and I think I'll order a couple more!

Think I'll be ordering a few also, how long do they last before they expire? 3 months from when it's activated in the iPad?
