Had a quick look at their forums and they are nowhere near unlimited. Seems they ban users who use over 1 GB an hour or 3GB a day, while at the same time calling it unlimited lol.

Their own acceptable use page backs this up: http://community.giffgaff.com/t5/Blo...e/ba-p/5528298

Had a look on t-mobiles site for FUP etc and it is a maze of links to different sites and all over the place before you get to any actual meaningful description of t&c's. Even though I found them, I don't actually trust them due to the route taken and what I have known of them data wise in the past

OUR FAIR USE POLICY ON DATA

We want all our customers to benefit from the improvements to our network, if someone in your area is using an excessive amount of data it means you could experience a lower speed as a result.

We monitor the data usage of every customer who has data access and fair usage specified in the terms of their plan. If a customer consumes data above the monthly fair use limit, and in a way that we consider extreme, we may reduce their connection speeds for a limited time. This will only affect a small number of people, and we will always warn them by text before the speed is reduced. This only applies to non-Business tariffs.
