Pros and cons
Hallon
Pros
- Sim only across the range, and 5G, esim, wifi calling and data rollover are all on the plan rather than sold as extras.
- Billing runs on rolling and prepaid and plans commit for 1 month, so there is no long tie in.
- Entry starts at SEK 19, with the cheapest plan listed sold without a contract and a bonus data promo on top.
Cons
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre only, with no phone line in that set, so a network fault cannot be chased by voice.
- EU roaming is fair use rather than included, while 36.1% of the plans listed here carry EU roaming outright.
- Hallon sells in SE only, so it is a single market plan and offers no service in any other country.
Very Mobile
Pros
- Entry pricing of €1.99 for the Very Things plan puts it near the bottom of the price table.
- The price rule states the price is fixed forever and never increased, so the entry rate holds at renewal.
- The Very Giga illimitati plan gives unlimited data for €14.99, below the site median for unlimited pricing.
Cons
- It is an MVNO on mvno rather than a network, so support and coverage rest on a host network rather than its own.
- Support runs on phone, help centre and chat only, with no email or community channel listed.
- The unlimited plan is not the cheapest way in: €14.99 is well above the entry price of €1.99.
Who each suits
Hallon
Who it suits
- Readers in SE who want a sim only plan on Tre with 5G, esim and rollover and nothing to cancel.
- People who want the service to run month to month on 1 month, so a change of job or phone costs them nothing.
- Travellers with modest data use who can live with fair use roaming inside the EU.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who needs to pick up a phone: support runs on email, chat and help centre only, and GETESA is the alternative to check, since it sells as a network rather than a virtual operator.
- Readers who prefer dealing with the network itself: GETESA, Lonestar Cell MTN and yesss! all sell as networks, where Hallon is mvno.
- Frequent EU travellers who want roaming included rather than fair use: Hallon's roaming is fair use, so yesss! is worth comparing on roaming terms.
Very Mobile
Who it suits
- Shoppers in Italy who want a prepaid SIM only plan with no contract
- People who plan to keep the same SIM for a long time and want the rate to stay put
- Travellers inside the EU who want roaming included in the plan
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who need service outside Italy, since it runs in IT only
- Shoppers who want a network carrier rather than a reseller, and should look at Lonestar Cell MTN with network
- People who need a physical store relationship, and should compare GETESA with network

Are Hallon prices introductory, or do they change at renewal?+
