Best PAYG sim for Mexico?

MrsE_2

I'm going to Mexico in less than 3 weeks :-) I don't dare take my iPhone with its contract sim, I will buy a PAYG sim & put it in an old phone (I guess I could even put it in my iPhone) anyway any advice on the best PAYG sim for Mexico?

Don't know if this is up to date, but this looks like the best offer for data (assuming that data is your priority):

I think I meant what PAYG sim I should buy here in the UK & yop up with a few quid to take in a phone to mexico so I can call/text the odd time to back home?

Or is that the wrong way to do it?

If you take a UK SIM it's going to be pretty expensive whichever you use, so I don't think it matters much. What's wrong with getting a Mexican SIM?

I will be in a hotel a good hike from anywhere & the hotel shop will prob charge the earth for it?

I did that in Sharm this year & it was murder getting a top up, only one shop locally & still a good walk & never open when you got there.
