Fitster Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I want a sim card that I can use in a mobile phone - but I only really need it for incoming calls. I'd rather not spend any money on credit, but if I have to, I want to spend as little as possible. I also do not want the credit to run out if the phone is not used. Could anyone please reccommend a suitable sim card? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leah-Lacie Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Just a normal pay as you go SIM should do... only any 'bonus' credit tends to expire. Most networks require you to top up at least once every 6 months and make at least one outgoing call in that time too though, I've had a few old SIMs cut off now as I haven't used them for 6months+. Hubby used to never top up and use my contract phone for outgoing and his PAYG for incoming. They cut him off (Vodafone) after 6 months, I rang them to ask why, and they said a a fiver top up every 6 months would stop it happening again,and reconnected it for him.

Iron Feliks Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Most pay as you go providers will supply a card for what you want. it's keeping it live that sometimes catches people out. If you get a card make sure you read the small print about use (like making one call/text every so often). Personally speaking Vodafone cut me off under this condition and then refused to reconnect the card even though there was £10 credit on it. When it later came to renewing a contract for my business mobiles guess which supplier found the going really really tough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speleo1 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 tesco do a top up £10 and they put £20 on to use for that month,if you dont top up the following month you still have your £10 and can get incoming calls and save your £10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
