Hi

I'm looking to transfer my old monthly contract mobile number onto a PAYG. I have my PAC but want to know which is best deal in regards to no minimum top up limit (ie if you don't top up by £10 every 3 months your cut off)

Also probably text more than talk.

    Think most of them have a 'no regular top-up required' tariff (Orange and O2 certainly do). Most of them will inactivate your account if you don't make or recieve a call or text for 3 months though...

    Tesco mobile Value - 5p texts to any network and call costs are pretty good too. Only cheaper way of getting texts is to use one of the internet-based (Java) clients that you install on your mobile like smsbug. Note: Tesco value tariff doesn't allow GPRS data access, so it's one or the other...

    T-Mobile have a tariff called text appeal, where texts are 3p to any network.
