whats the best and cheapest sim deal out there at the moment,not looking i think for a 12 month sim deal but one i could stop or change anytime,i work away every two weeks of the month when i am in work and am not able to use the phone then.
And i dont really use the phone that much,but have enough calls and txt would be good,probably the least you can get i would probably get by with me being away 2 weeks of the month,but you never know and i suppose sometimes i may use it from month to month more.
I do like to use the internet on mine it is the htc hero so this is probably something i would use more to be honest that the calls and txt.

I hear there is gifgaf,3 and t mobile deals which offer the best deals and best price for what you get,was looking to probably pay upto £10 per month for it as thats probably would i might use each month on top ups.

I am away to get my phone unlocked so will be looking for a sim asap so i can keep using my phone,i do have the gifgaf sim in hand but are they any good or value for money.

    I think it depends on what you use - If you are a light user and don't expect to exceed 100 minutes per month then this is a fantastic deal. Obviously if you expect to use more then the £10 GiffGaff deal might be better.
