"I have been with Popit for a couple of…"
I have been with Popit for a couple of years without an issue. I changed my plan for eu100 roaming. Unfortunately it did not upgrade and can’t get any reply from Popit either by chat or email. Hopefully this post will get some response

"Popit £75 100Gb roaming is a total rip off…"
Popit now sell their 100Gb roaming for £59 down from £75 in their original announcement ..wow!...what good value...NOT!..get a local sim when you arrive for less than a third if the price.
Popit just announced EU roaming is back..trumpets bells whistles!!! Fantastic.. BUT. £75!!!!! yes £75! a month for 100Gb...what a bloody complete rip off! Anyone who pays that needs their heads testing...get a local Spanish sim for Spain if that's where your going Lobster sim or something like that or any local sim where your going I'm paying €18 for 100Gb data with Lobster put it in the second sim card slot of my Samsung phone and use the second sim for data...easy as that...or if you have an old phone use that and set it up as a local hotspot.
Why are we Brits ripped off for EVERYTHING...Popit announcing this as some sort of wondrous deal are having a Larf...pants being pulled right down on this one, what a bloody joke.....do your research and see what you can get locally when you arrive.

"Let down BADLY - No more EU 100GB"
I also bought into Popit as they were providing 100GB in EU. This was changed with only a weeks notice and we’d already left, giving us no option but to source local sims (which was incredibly easy in Spain with just your passport needed in a Vodafone shop)
They have really let me down, I’m out of pocket, I’ve now got to cancel which looks a horrendous excercise, I think they are not being completely transparent on the “we weren’t told ourselves about having to drop EU roaming” as within a few days they started to show your EU roaming allowance of 25GB being used…. How could they possibly have done that without not knowing in advance? I’ve reported them to OFCOM but doubt that will do any good.

"NOT HAPPY "
NOT HAPPY ! just signed up to 100gb of data. Now in France after only 1 week I’m told that I can only use 25 gb of data now no warning given not even an email like they said they did. In France so unable to do anything and not back until November with now very little data I wasn’t expecting. Feel ripped off

"Not impressed"
Not impressed, they wait until 1 day after payment and then change the terms of the deal that was in place. Signed up for 100GB roaming and can only use 25GB.
NOT ANY FORM OF REDUCED PAYMENT OFFERED.
Turning into the same con artists as the rest of the UK providers

"They make it difficult to cancel. Avoid.. "
They make it difficult to cancel citing their terms and conditions, which are ridiculous. Why should you need to use X amount of data in the UK to cancel? Then when you try to cancel, you call their number, and there are no operators to speak to (only automated , with no options to cancel). Finally when you manage to find the place to cancel on their confusing website (clearly on purpose), you lose all data currently paid for (I've never heard of this before, why doesn't it just cancel at the end of the current month, which I have paid for?!). Bad service like this puts me off from using their service again. I would avoid them.

"The only sim to offer 100gb in the EU"
The only sim to offer 100gb in the EU. You just have to ensure you’ve used 2gb in the UK before you cancel. Simple. Allowed us to have MIFI for devices in France and Italy on our summer road trip. Quick responses to any customer service queries. Will be contacting them again next summer hols!

"What a brilliant sim"
What a brilliant sim, and company
I use it when travelling in my motorhome around Europe. No problems with signal and streaming UK tv too
I use it at home in the UK too
Had the odd enquiry with the company, who have been prompt in their reply, and nothing but helpful

"Toxic"
Toxic company who I will never deal with again. Popit were a nightmare to cancel. They claimed that my "roaming compliance" was less than 100% despite me having been in the UK for 7 months continuously, paying subs and using data for the entire period. They refused to cancel my monthly renewal. I had to threaten to raise an unauthorised transaction with my bank. Would not trust them ever again. Now with Tesco mobile who have no roaming fees until 2025.
EDIT: In response to your reply. I used a 100GB/month package for two months in Europe, then renewed every month for 7 months when back in the UK. Same deal, 100GB a month. I then asked to cancel and you would not let me. I did NOT downgrade to a smaller plan and I had PLENTY of UK usage. Yours is just a clown company who people should avoid. The biscuit was truly taken when I asked if I could top up early if I had used up all my data and was told that no, you have to do without until your renewal date!

"Bought initially as an extra contract…"
Bought initially as an extra contract because the full data package could be used when roaming in France, have now ported my mobile number and cancelled another contract I was using for home internet. All my data needs are now satisfied by the one contract
