This weekend has shaped up to be a perfect time to get some new SIM only deals. The big name networks have all put on the boxing gloves and the competition for the best price is fierce.

While there are excellent choices all around, EE, Three and Vodafone have taken the top three spots with Three leading the charge. If you go directly through the Three website, you can get a SIM plan that has been dominating the market since Black Friday.

This SIM offers unlimited 5G data, calls and texts, all for just £16 a month - the lowest ever price for an unlimited 5G SIM. For those whose preference lies with EE, you can get 120GB for just £20 a month and if you don't mind relying on cashback, there's a great Vodafone SIM available this weekend.

This SIM offers 100GB for £16 a month, but effectively goes all the way down to £11 a month thanks to a £60 cashback plan.
