Our verdict on each
1pMobile
1pMobile suits adults in the UK who want a cheap Sim only line, an eSIM, no credit check and a rolling monthly option they can leave quickly. It scores 9 overall, with plans starting at £5 a month, and the unlimited tier landing mid table on our price comparison.
MasMovil
MasMovil is a Spanish network selling its own SIM only lines with no minimum term, which suits readers who want a short commitment and a low entry price of €4.90. The trade-off is a narrow feature list: data does not roll over and calls over wifi are out.

Pros and cons
1pMobile
Pros
- Plans start at £5 a month, and billing runs rolling and prepaid with terms of 1 and 12 months, so a reader can start small.
- No credit check is required and an eSIM is available, which means a new number can be live without a handset.
- 5G, WiFi calling and hotspot sharing are all included, and a multi line discount applies to households.
Cons
- EU roaming is fair use rather than included, and roaming overall reaches 46 countries.
- Terms run 1 and 12 months, so the rolling option is the pick for anyone who might move, and the annual plan only makes sense for readers already settled.
- 1pMobile is an mvno, while GETESA, Lonestar Cell MTN and yesss! all sell as network providers, so a reader who wants the operator itself is looking at a different kind of seller.
MasMovil
Pros
- Entry price of €4.90 sits below the site median of €9.30, and it ranks 87 of 258 brands on that measure.
- Plan terms run 1 month, so there is nothing to serve out before you leave.
- Sim only tariffs are available, and eSIM is offered, so you can bring a light line without a handset.
Cons
- Data rollover is not available, so unused data is lost at the end of each cycle.
- Lonestar Cell MTN lists an entry price of $0.20, lower than €4.90, so the cheapest way in sits with that brand instead.
- Roaming in the EU runs on fair use terms rather than being included outright.
Who each suits
1pMobile
Who it suits
- Adults in the UK who want a Sim only line at the cheap end of the price range and can set up an eSIM themselves.
- Households adding a second line, where a multi line discount applies.
- Readers who want a rolling monthly line they can end quickly, with no credit check at signup.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who wants to buy from the network operator rather than an mvno: GETESA and yesss! sell as network and network providers.
- Heavy data users on a tight budget, since the unlimited plan costs £25 a month, with the network sellers GETESA, yesss! and Lonestar Cell MTN the ones to price against.
MasMovil
Who it suits
- Readers in the market listed as ES who want a single-market setup.
- People who want a SIM only line and a term of 1 month with no long commitment.
- Anyone who needs hotspot sharing and 5G on a budget line.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who relies on rolling monthly billing, since yesss lists contract, rolling and prepaid options.
- Readers who call often from indoors on weak signal, since wifi calling is not supported.
- People who want unused data to move into the next cycle, since data rollover is not available.

Questions about each
1pMobile
What does 1pMobile cost to join?+
Plans start at £5 a month, and that figure belongs to the smallest data allowance in the range. A heavy user should budget on the unlimited plan rather than the entry number. The entry figure is a month to month spend, not an introductory deal that resets later.
How much is the unlimited data plan?+
The Unlimited plan is listed at £25 a month. It is the price to hold in mind for anyone who regularly uses more data than a capped allowance allows, and it is the figure that pushes 1pMobile further back in our price comparison than its entry plan does. Readers who stay well inside a small allowance pay far less.
MasMovil
How much does a MasMovil line cost to start?+
Lines start at €4.90, which is below the site median entry price of €9.30. Across the site, €6.99 is the typical starting figure for this kind of deal, and €6.99 is the typical figure among mobile networks.
Do I have to sign a long contract?+
Plan terms run 1 month, so there is no long minimum to serve. That is a good match for anyone who expects their data use or income to change and wants to leave without a large exit bill.
