Sky Mobile has cut the price of its unlimited data plan, offering unlimited data for £20 a month, that's cheaper than O2 and Vodafone right now
Sky Mobile has launched a surprise sale, slashing the price tags on various device tariffs, with its SIM-only plans among the top bargains. The move sees Sky joining the ranks of O2 and Vodafone, both of whom are currently running sales, heralding an opportune moment for consumers mulling over a new SIM.
Data-hungry users may find Sky Mobile's unlimited data offer particularly tempting, as it beats both O2 and Vodafone in the cost-effectiveness stakes amid the ongoing sale. Marked down by £9 monthly, Sky offers unlimited data at £20 per month.
A discount from the regular price of £29 a month, it's a £108 saving across the first year of the 24-month contract term. This edges out the competition with O2 priced at £22 and Vodafone at £24 monthly for similar plans.
Sky imposes no limit to data usage, customers can surf and stream to their heart's content. Coupled with 5G capabilities – courtesy of O2's network infrastructure – Sky presents a compelling choice for heavy data consumers.

The package is sweetened with European roaming options (though travellers should verify country coverage) and includes limitless calling and messaging services.
While Sky Mobile consistently garners praise for excellent value, consumers would do well to weigh up the myriad benefits of alternative providers. Usually vigilant checks on network coverage are advisable, but given Sky Mobile's shared network with O2, connectivity issues with one will invariably affect the other.
Vodafone might be your best bet in this case. Their Unlimited Plus package is slightly pricier (it'll set you back an extra £48 in the first year) and boasts a top speed of 100Mbps - shop the deal here.
Currently discounted, Vodafone Unlimited Plus is now just £24 per month, down from £33, saving shoppers £108 over the first year, in line with Sky's offer. O2 is also having a sale, with discounts on unlimited data.
The O2 Unlimited plan is available for £22 per month in an online-only deal. While this tariff doesn't include all the Extras that come with some of the pricier plans, it does offer unlimited data at a fantastic price.
These summer sales won't last forever, with O2's sale wrapping up on 4 June, and Sky Mobile nearing the end of its Week of Treats. It's worth noting that these are SIM-only deals, so shoppers need to purchase the phone separately.
This comes with a benefit, as it allows you to change your phone as often as you wish and gives you the freedom to hunt for the best deals, buy refurbished devices or get your hands on the latest phones as soon as they hit the market.
