Is this possible ?

Is it possible to get a sim only deal in which you can't go over the time you have paid for ?

I'm trying to get something for my son but don't want to end up with a huge bill.

TIA

how about ufix from t-mobile?

you pay monthly line rental and get minute/txts included as a normal account but when they are used you have to top up as payg

can't seem to get the ufix link to work on the website though

Would pay and go not be the best option? I know you don't get free mins and texts, but then there's no line rental either.

3 have an option where you can put the credit limit on your account to 0 meaning that once your son reaches his usage limit it wont let him use any more services that will cost extra ie internet, extra calls and texts etc, from knowing someone on the TMob UFix they are very uncompetitive in terms of what you get for your money but worth a look i suppose.

O2 simplcity is online billing so myou can see all the time how much is used, and if he misbehaves then its only a 30 rolling contract so can be cancelled easily

O2 will bar international dialing and calls form abroad etc and you can set a £10 limit so that if you go over that the service will be restricted

Most companies will do this but note it is not guaranteed; it is possible to run up a large bill because charges are in the pipeline

Thanks for the replies

I have mailed o2 as the simplicty plan ticks all the boxes so long as they confirm that I can set a cap of some sort.
