Data SIM for Ireland & UK
 
Hi, does anyone have any idea is there a prepaid SIM (with unlimited data plan) that will work seamlessly from Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and England?

Thank you!

No. Irish republic providers generally cover the Island of Ireland. UK providers cover UK. "3" Three have a limited overlap but you would be better getting a sim for each county which is why I have been tony2phones since the 80's.

UK providers cover UK including the 6 counties of NI. (just to clarify) http://shop.three.ie/catalogue/produ...FYWV4Qod5SAAdQ

Thanks Tony! Any good providers to recommend that is of good value and coverage?

3 are probably the best for Data. If it were calls then Tesco. Metor offer free call roaming but not data roaming and use Tmobile in the UK who are useless. O2 and Vodafone are top price offerings. hence the links.
