    Apologies if this is in the wrong section, I'm looking to get a prepay sim card for my (dual SIM) phone that will give me internet access only, I'm not looking for calls or texts.
    I was looking at one of the 180 day prepay Sims from eir for €30 but they said it won't work in a phone as they are encrypted and will only work in a dongle type modem.
    Does anyone know of a an internet only prepay SIM for mobiles?

    You can also get 3Pay. There are mixed reports over speeds, but I find them OK. €20 every 30 days.

    Tethering is technically not permitted, but I've never been done whenever I did it. Plus, they have a Fair Usage Policy of 60GB when they may cut you off, but never seen it enforced.
