Blackberry-end of contract

Hi all, my 2 year contract with virgin, for my blackberry phone ends this coming week.
I want to just use it as pay as you go. Could you please advise me what sim card/provider to use please. I am not a big user but need it for emergencies etc.
Many thanks:)

    There is not much in between them for low users, so you can use virgin , don't forget to tell them you wish to cancel otherwise you will still get charged, as the 24 months is the minimum comittment.
  • Thanks for the quick reply dutr, yes I informed them about 5 weeks ago that I would not be continuing with them.
    many thanks, Sue:)

    Did they not offer you any payg deal? Or sim only? some are getting 300mins 300 text and 100mb or 500mb for £5 a month.
  • Have a look at Ovivo, 50 minutes, 50 texts and 100Mb data for free.

    Your BIS won't work though.
  • Thanks for the replies...I may ring and ask re the deals...don't want to be contracted to them...what's BIS/ lol

    No referral links. The £10 goodybag's not good value for an occasional user is it?

    Hi All,
    Took your advice and contacted virgin today, got 100 mins, unlimited texts and blackberry services all for £5 per month, no commitment to a contract, can end it anytime!
    Many thanks to you all,Sue x:j
