What to expect from ID Mobile’s Black Friday sale

Based on last year’s sales and recent discounts we’d expect three things from ID Mobiles Black Friday deals.

The first is some really big SIM-only deals: ID Mobile has gone as big as 100GB data for just £15 a month this year.

ID Mobile usually offers big value on affordable handsets, but adds some premium deals to its Black Friday offers – that means Galaxy S20, Google Pixel and other pricier handsets could feature.

Lastly, the provider might return to waves of releases, offering several phases of deals – so waiting for a deal that really suits you could pay off.
