I am looking into getting a Ryoko Pro and then cancel my contracts with Giffgaff and Vodafone.

However, although it is selling as 9.99 GBP/month for unlimited data plan, the small prints said it will be billed at 54.99 GBP for the first 6 months!!!

It is also showing a reduced device cost at 39.00 GBP instead of 130.00 GBP.

Billed monthly = 33.30 GBP + device cost of 39.00 GBP.

Very confusing pricing structure as it does not tell me how much I would be committing myself on a monthly basis!

This is the website I checked:

https://ryokorouter.com/ryoko-pro/order

Tread carefully I'd say!

Dk, look at the small print. It says

However, please note that for unlimited mobile internet data plan Subscription users internet speed throttling will be applied. That means that You will either:

(a) receive 15 GB of data at full speed, after which the speed will be reduced to 256 kbps for the remainder of the 1-month cycle; or

(b) receive up to 1 GB of data at full speed each day, after which the speed will be reduced to 256 kbps for the remainder of the day.

The throttled speed of 256kbps is like the speeds we used to get from 1990s dial up internet. It might just about manage email and very slow browsing but it definitely wouldn't stream TV. So basically they are calling it unlimited data but in reality, it is basically 15GB data.
