Sim card - At&T or Talkmobile?

I've found a couple of unlimited US sim cards on Amazon, sold by Mostsim, there are 2 on my shortlist with good reviews, one is using the Talkmobile network and the other AT&T. Which one would you choose?

We got back yesterday. I bought this one and it worked perfectly. Ordered a 12 day sim for our 10 day trip. Put it in the day we left uk and took it out when back at Gatwick. Had good strong covering during our Orlando trip and also used to create hotspot for both my girls to use when on shuttle buses etc.

Just wondered if anyone else has used either of the 2 sim cards on my shortlist as looking to buy it soon. Thanks so much.

I'm with Tesco Mobile too, I just switch to a Three sim when I go to USA
For £10 you get 4GB of data but they do others with more data. With the amount of wifi everywhere, I've never got close to using 4GB while over there.

we were looking at the deal this month for unlimited data for £25 instead of £35, but if we buy the SIM card now do you know if it will still be valid for when we go in September if we don't put it into the phone until just before we go? TIA

Unless you plan on using it in the UK , there is no point in the higher tariffs. Three max out at 12GB for use abroad. And the PAYG sim add on is for 30 days.

ah, so for use in the US, the most we can actually use there is 12gb, even if we had the unlimited? Thanks for that, didn't realise and we'd only need it while we're there (3 week trip, Route 66 for directions and Disneyland for FP bookings etc).
Will go and have a look at the smaller plans - like the 12gb data, would we be able to use all that in the US in the 30 days?
