We think the best value for money SIM only plan on Tesco Mobile for March is their discounted 12GB for £10 £9 deal. It's on a 24‑month plan and comes with unlimited minutes and texts too:

If you add up the £1 monthly discount, you’ll save £24 in total over the full 24 months on the deal.

While it's good enough to be in our pick of Tesco's best SIM only deals, other providers do still have similar plans for less, even ones that also use the O2 network. See who's offering it for less here:

Their £13 for 30GB plan is a decent deal for March

To get a bigger chunk of data, you might like the discounted £15 £13 SIM only deal running on Tesco Mobile at the moment. It's a 24‑month plan, which comes with 30GB data, unlimited minutes and texts too:

That £2 monthly saving vs full price will save you £48 in total over the 24 months.

It's definitely one of Tesco's best. But it's not market-leading. You can get a similar plan on other providers for less, even if you need your SIM to use the O2 network. Here's where you can beat it on other networks:

They're also offering unlimited data for £20 on SIM only currently

If you need even more data, we'd say this is one of Tesco's best deals on SIM only this month too. It's a discounted 24‑month plan, comes with unlimited data, unlimited minutes and texts for £25 £20 a month:

It’s a discount of £5 a month against the full price, adding up to a £120 saving over the 24 months.

Even though it's in our pick of Tesco's best SIM only deals, you can actually beat it on price with other providers, including ones that also use the O2 network. See lower-priced networks' deals here:

How Tesco Mobile’s benefits and SIM only prices compare

In our review of Tesco Mobile we said we liked the fact that you get access to O2’s great mix of coverage, as well as O2’s fast 5G network. They offer the same coverage experience as being on O2 directly.

You can take a 1-month, 12-month or 24-month contract. Usually, the longer the contract the less you’ll pay each month, but it’s worth comparing plans here to check for any special deals on different plans.

Tesco tend to offer good value on mid-range data plans. And if you’ve got a Clubcard you can get better value deals than their regular range, but only on certain tariffs. They typically offer better value than O2.

One massive benefit is that you can collect Clubcard points from shopping at Tesco stores to get money off your monthly bill and vice versa. And you get extra benefits for adding other users onto your account.

Your Tesco Mobile SIM will be delivered within 1-5 working days (depends where you live and when you ordered). Or you can take one from a Tesco store. You’ll get every size of SIM, but you can’t get an eSIM.

You’ll have 14 days after your SIM arrives to return it if you’re not satisfied. You’ll get a full refund, even if you’ve used some of your data. Here’s how you can do it.

To join any Tesco SIM only contract you’ll have to pass a credit check. If you’ve got a bad or no credit history you can still join them by taking out a “Rocket Pack” which are bundles of mins, texts and data.

To keep your number when switching to Tesco Mobile from another network, you can request a PAC from you current provider and send it to Tesco whenever.
