Pay as you go - Back to basics
I've got myself a backup phone to go permanently in my car and I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out who offers a very basic PAYG sim card with no additional fees beyond the initial starting credit. I notice a lot of plans now have some form of monthly fee or seem to expire after 30 days. It's been a long time since…
