Best SIM ONLY

I have an unlocked iPhone. I have a Three SIM for £15 a month but I always go over because of picture messaging and other hidden charges that I can't work out. The carphone warehouse salesman who sold me it said I could tether my iPad with it but I can't.

So my question is what is a good, cheap Sim only deal that includes picture messaging and doesn't end up costing more than face value?

    Can you not get a tethering add on from Three? What are these hidden charges on your bill?

    Not sure you can get a contract with MMS included any more, not with out buying a bundle/add on/bolt on.

    I've been charged for MMS and there are call charges unspecified. Frustrating as I can't access an itemised bill. Personal wifi hotspot seems to work for a bit and then comes up with a message saying "this contract isn't designed for tethering". Annoying. I pay £15 officially. Works out at £19. I'm sure i could pay less. I'm not a heavy user but like to send pics. They were included in my contract.

    If you have it in writing that your contract includes picture messages then you shouldn't be charged for them.

    Why cant you access an itemised bill?
