It turns out that 24 GB sim cards activated till 1st of October benefit from GoBing.
It means that Spotify traffic is not counted towards 24gb.
That's really good!

Picked up my car 15 Sep 20 and it had sim card fitted and hub setup with WiFi name and password. Tried for 5 days to setup Vodafone account ( 1 day wasted through my misspelling of Vodafone😠, then spoke to the dealer who sent me an idiots guide on how to do it. 10 mins later all done!! Why didn't he give me that when I collected the car!!!!!!!! Car internet working fine no issues.

It’s a good deal...

Ehh.. to late for me :(

On the other side - would be interesting to see how long it will work with Spotify without Bing.

Are there any problems with replacing the “free” Vodafone SIM with the 3 mobile one?

Amazon still have a few at around £45 for 24GB, 24 months - I've just ordered one - better than the Vodafone 12 months at £100 for 100GB. Three's coverage is poorer than other networks, but as you only need it when driving it should be OK.
