Our verdict on each
OiSTER
OiSTER is a rolling Danish MVNO that suits households wanting a month-to-month bill, sim only plans and an unlimited option at DKK 49 a month. It is a weaker choice than the cheapest listings on entry price, so buyers shopping purely on the headline figure should look elsewhere first.
toob
toob suits UK households that want full fibre with uploads matching downloads, and it sits 5 of 36 brands on the monthly price kept after the term ends. The trade-off is the annual increase each April, so the later bill sits well above the opening figure.

| Cost | 9.8HigherEntry at DKK 18 a month and unlimited at DKK 49, though the Fri tale plans rise on renewal after an introductory rate. | 9.7Entry at £18 a month, no setup fee, and a renewal band of £26 to £37 sit well inside the field. |

Pros and cons
OiSTER
Pros
- The unlimited Fri tale Fri data plan is listed at DKK 49 a month, which ranks 13 of 173 on unlimited price.
- Rolling billing at 1 month, with Basic available pay-as-you-go and no binding period.
- Sim only, eSIM, wifi calling and a multi line discount are all available, on 5G technology.
Cons
- The DKK 18 entry price ranks 43 of 258 on the listings compared, so entry pricing is mid-table rather than the cheapest on offer.
- The Fri tale plans are published at a promotional rate before a higher standard rate, so the ongoing cost on the same plan name is the figure to budget.
- Coverage is limited to DK, so residents outside that market have nothing here to switch to.
toob
Pros
- Setup is free, and toob sits 1 of 86 on the setup fee ranking.
- Upload speed of 2,300 Mbps puts toob at 10 of 46 on the upload table.
- Once the term ends, bills of £26 to £37 place toob at 5 of 36 brands.
Cons
- The £18 entry is introductory: the terms add an annual increase each April, so the later bill is higher.
- Coverage is GB only, and the service runs on fttp, so a full fibre build has to reach your address.
- Early termination charges apply, worked out as the monthly fee less a set amount for each remaining full month.
Who each suits
OiSTER
Who it suits
- Households in DK that want a rolling monthly bill and can cancel mobile broadband with notice.
- Readers who want unlimited data at DKK 49 a month rather than the cheapest possible entry price.
- Families running more than one line, since a multi line discount applies alongside eSIM setup for a new handset.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who wants to buy from the network operator instead of an MVNO: GETESA, Lonestar Cell MTN and yesss! all sell as networks.
- Shoppers ranking purely on the lowest price from, since DKK 18 sits at position 43 of 258 and yesss! or GETESA belong on the same shortlist for that column.
toob
Who it suits
- Households in the UK on a full fibre line that want uploads as quick as downloads, at 2,300 Mbps.
- Anyone who wants a static IP and a Linksys Wi-Fi 7 router included without buying extra kit.
- Households that qualify for the social tariff.
Who should look elsewhere
- People outside GB: EarthLink lists 5G and satellite as well as fibre: fttp, 5G and satellite.
- Buyers chasing the highest headline speed: Abissnet is listed at 10,000 Mbps against 2,300 Mbps here.
- Shoppers who want cable in the mix: Astound lists it alongside fibre: cable and fttp.

Questions about each
OiSTER
What is the cheapest OiSTER plan and what does it cost?+
The entry price is DKK 18 a month. Basic is the pay-as-you-go option, billed on usage with no binding period, so it works for light use and for anyone who does not want to be tied in. The two Fri tale plans sit above it, one with a capped allowance and one unlimited, so the entry figure suits a phone that lives mostly on wifi.
What will I pay when an introductory price runs out?+
The Fri tale plans are published at a promotional rate first and a higher standard rate afterwards on the same plan name, so the ongoing cost is the standard rate, not the introduction. Basic sidesteps that because it is pay-as-you-go. The unlimited plan, Fri tale Fri data, is listed at DKK 49 a month on the published pricing.
toob
What does toob cost to get started?+
The entry plan starts at £18 a month, and the setup fee is £0, so nothing is added to the opening invoice. Available contract lengths are 1, 12 and 24 months, so a short term and a long one both sit on the same list.
What will I pay once the contract ends?+
After the initial term the monthly bill moves to £26 to £37, depending on the plan you pick. That places toob at 5 of 36 brands on the price you keep, among the stronger positions on this measure. Ask for the renewal rate in writing before you sign.
