Got an iPad? Need a sim cheap?

Not sure if it's well known but:

Tmobile do a deal £10 one off payment gives unlimited web browsing and 500mb of downloads a month for 12 months

They don't advertise it but if you go in and ask they should sort you out

unlimited wifi and 500mb 3g a month?

still good for £10 but you'd probably run out before the months up then get charged p/mb after that which is where they will make the money

What's unlimited web browsing but 500mb downloads, browsing the web is a download.

Can't see it being legit tbh.

They must have some way of telling wether you are actually downloading or just surfing, probably by the amount of time a constant d/l is happening, only a guess though. Been using none stop for over a week, will update after a month to see if it carries on working but I was told def £10 for 12 months one off payment.
Works great.
Just thought I'd spread the word as seems cheap!
Looking good anyway

There's not a chance in hell you've paid £10 for 12 months unlimited data.

Not a chance. Surfing is downloading. You're misunderstanding something.

http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/shop/ipad2/micro-sim/

On their website it says:

Get a free iPad or iPad 2 micro-SIM card and load it with £10 credit when you order it.

Data allowance

250MB per day for £2 per day
500MB per week for £7 per week
1GB per month for £15 per month

So you have to basically pay a tenner for the credit (SIM is free), and then you have to choose one of the above plans.

Obviously what's in a shop might be different, but there's no chance in hell it's gonna be £10 for 12 months - unless it's £10/month on a 30 day rolling contract of some sort.

As said will update, seems too good to be true I know, trust me I didn't just believe him and walk out.
I questioned it multiple times, bought in Trafford centre tmobile if anyone wants to visit and ask the questions yourself, maybe a manager special at that store?
Best way is to wait while I've had it a month and see if it still works.

Also does just say 500mb/month.
But no charges for going over is in the terms.
Also does say that it doesn't work in iPad on web, but clearly does. They just don't want you to use in iPad as you won't top up

So more or less what I've said - i.e. £10 topup + free SIM, then £10/month... Not one-off £10.

BTW - on that page XE Col took a screenshot of, it says:

Please note that the 12 months free internet is for the iPhone 4 only and is not available for the iPad or any other device.

Says it all ^^

Edit: and no need to text as I bought it in store so he set it all up there and then

This is what I have bought

And Sam yes it does as I posted above but on the hotukdeals link quoted also says users have found it to work in iPads and 3G dongles
