What type of phone plans are available?
Sky Mobile offers many different mobile phone plans, including the latest iPhones, Samsung handsets, and Android devices. It also offers many data options, from small monthly allowances to a whopping 75GB a month.
What contract lengths are available?
Sky Mobile phone deals are available on 12-month, 24-month and 36-month contracts. As you might expect, the 12-month contracts tend to be more expensive, while the longer contracts allow you to spread the cost over a longer period of time. However, this does mean you’ll be tied into your contract for longer, giving you fewer options to switch.
Are there international calling/roaming options?
Sky Mobile lets you use your monthly allowance of calls, texts and data while you’re abroad, but you will need to pay extra to do so. Since Brexit has allowed mobile phone networks to reintroduce roaming charges in EU countries, Sky Mobile now charges customers £2 a day to use their data, send texts or make and receive calls.
Coverage
Sky Mobile's service is based on O2's network. So, in turn, it offers 98.97% 4G coverage in the UK - plus 5G in a number of locations - whether you're on a pay-monthly phone contract or a pay-as-you-go deal.

Moving to Sky Mobile and want to keep your phone number from another network?
You shouldn’t have any issues keeping your existing phone number if you’re switching to Sky Mobile from another network. Simply text PAC to 65075, and your current network will reply with your PAC code. Then, after you’ve signed up for your new Sky Mobile deal, you just need to give Sky your PAC code so they can transfer your old number across to your new SIM card.
