PAYG MBB with high data caps?

At the moment I'm using a PAYG Three MiFi and routinely paying £25 for a 7GB topup every month. It usually runs out early, and I'm starting to find 7GB extremely limiting. Can't currently get a BT line, would rather avoid a contract but I'm willing to look into one.

What are my options?

Three have a 1 month rolling for £15 that gives you 10GB, but it is for iPad (although you could probably get an adaptor to bring the sim up to regular size)..

Wouldn't using it outside of an iPad violate the T&Cs though?

I have no idea - possible, I suppose.

Its simple I think.

You get yourself a new PAYG Three sim, stick it in your MIFI and activate it, then you go to My 3 and you top up £15.

You then convert that £15 to a All in One 15 add on.

This add on allows unlimited data AND tethering in a phone.

It should also work in a MIFI, mine does I got a MIFI on £15 monthly rolling contract for £39.99. But I cancelled the contract and use the PAYG sim instead as I dont have to watch data use.

Failing that you could buy a cheap android phone of Ebay and use it to thether, or share wifi hotspot on if you want to be ultra safe.

Thanks for the reply, but: "Unlimited" usually means "UNLIMITED!!!!!*" "* Fair Use Policy: 1GB/Month" or somesuch. What does "unlimited" actually mean here?

No, I just bought one from a Three shop. I said it was for a netbook and she gave me a sim adaptor to bring it up to size. I plugged it in and it just worked. Unfortunately, 3 is a bit patchy. When the coverage is there is works very well, but there's not enough coverage for me.

Orange looks better for me.

Phone them up and get them to confirm exactly what they mean, it claims all you can eat here.

Seems pretty unlimited to me, at least for the moment.

Is there any deal on any network that allows more than 15GB? (biff I'd rather not risk that since it's clearly designed for phones and I doubt they'd be happy for it to be used for MBB, but thanks)
