Which EE or BT eSIM Should You Choose?
For a short stay or maximum flexibility
Choose the 100GB rolling 30-day EE eSIM at £20.00, or the unlimited rolling 30-day EE eSIM at £25.00. Both include unlimited UK calls and texts according to their current product records.
For a phone plan lasting 12 or 24 months
The current voice-and-data range includes 100GB-per-month and unlimited-data options. Select the term carefully because 12-month and 24-month products are separate purchases with different prices.
For mobile broadband or a compatible router
Choose one of the BT-coded data-only products. These plans provide UK mobile data but do not include voice calls or SMS. Confirm that the intended router, tablet, laptop or hotspot supports eSIM before ordering.
What to Check Before Buying
- Device compatibility: Confirm that your unlocked device supports eSIM.
- Product type: Voice-and-data plans and data-only mobile-broadband plans serve different needs.
- Term: Rolling 30-day, 12-month and 24-month products are separate options.
- Coverage: Service depends on local EE 4G/5G availability, device capability and network conditions.
- Activation: Follow the installation and activation instructions supplied with the order rather than assuming every product activates at the same time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there currently a 5GB EE eSIM for £8?
No such enabled, catalogue-visible product appears in the current English-store Magento catalogue. The old £8 claim has therefore been removed from this guide.
Are these BT or EE products?
These are EE-network eSIM products within the current BT/EE catalogue range. Products whose SKU begins with BT are mobile-broadband, data-only options; the EE-coded products include the voice-and-data SIM-only plans shown above.
Do the mobile-broadband products include calls and texts?
No. The four BT-coded mobile-broadband products listed here are data-only. Choose an EE-coded voice-and-data product if you need UK calls and SMS.
Conclusion
The previous “5GB for £8” recommendation and Orange category links were incorrect. Use the verified comparison above to select the right current EE or BT-coded eSIM product, then open its direct product page to review the complete specifications before purchase.
