giffgaff Benefits
Flexible ‘Data Boost’ plans
As well as being able to save lots of money on a new phone, another benefit of getting your handset from giffgaff is the ability to combine this with their airtime plans.
As a special offer until the 18th May 2026, giffgaff is offering ‘data boost’ plans with up to 200% more data.
For instance, if you choose giffgaff’s £10, £12 or £15 airtime contract, there’s currently triple the normal amount of data. This means you can get 75GB data for £10, 150GB data for £12, or 300GB data for £15 per month.
On these plans, there’s an 18-month contract but you retain the flexibility to change your plan over time within giffgaff’s 18-month range (e.g. if you need more or less data). This is all possible without resetting the term of your commitment. In addition, there’s guaranteed to be no mid-contract price rises on 18 month contracts purchased before end of 2026 (fair usage policy & terms and exclusions apply, see giffgaff.com/terms):

Offer ends 18th May | 300GB data | £15.00 per month 18 month contract | See deal |
For even more flexibility, you can choose a one-month rolling ‘data boost’ plan instead. For instance, there’s currently 40GB data for £10 (increased from 20GB) and 75GB data for £12 (increased from 26GB) on a one-month rolling plan. On the one-month rolling plans, you’ll receive the extra data for 6 months.
