Mobile plan up looking for a better one cheaper

My plan is now ended today. I have the essential sim 125gb at £23 a month. This plan includes

125gb Data

Unlimited msgs and texts

With 5G

Add ons

1. Full roaming

2. Wifi coverage boost

3. Roam in the EU

4. £10 off monthly so I'd assume it'd be £33

I think this is a tad expensive for what I get. We do go abroad about 3 times a year mostly EU, but not always. I only use on average about 10-15gb a month.

I see there's a 50gb sim, unlimited mins and txts, includes 50gb of EU roaming. At £15 a month or an 80gb sim at 16 a month. I think these would suffice unless there's any hidden extras I don't see in here? Ideally it would be great to roam anywhere in the world but I think this would be too costly. The last time we went to Canada I used a virtual sim. We are going to Turkey shortly. I may have to do the same as costs for 10 days are expensive. Is there anything better out there that the forum could recommend? Or any specials that I don't know about. I think the sweetspot for me is around the 16 quid mark. I've been a EE customer as long as I remember, however I know loyalty doesn't necessarily pay. Any advice appreciated. Plus is there a number that I can call EE CS as I prefer speaking to a human. Cheers

Thanks Benjan, I'll have a look, however I'm happy with EE. They're a good provider in my area and never really had any issues with them. My other half is on O2 so we have a balance if there's ever any signal issues. Though I do know 3rd parties run on the back of EE. What would be the benefits of goi g with one of these, after all I'd still be on the EE network. Is there any disadvantages? Plus looking at costs I'll probably go esim for Turkyie thanks for replying though...I'll check out 1pmobile
