Cheap sim only deal?

I have the problem that (I think) only orange (and Tmobile) work where I live, it's been that way for quite a while (orange only).
I have a handset and I want only a sim deal as cheap as poss, I use very few minutes and texts a month, but it's building because of work, so it seems better to go from payg to a monthly plan.
I've started using over £5 a month on payg, but if it was a certain amount of minutes included, I could use far more (and cut down on the calls from the LL as well)
Any ideas, I'm out of the loop on mobiles and of the cheap firms, none that I know of use the EE network?
I don't need any internet stuff, just calls and texts.

Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.

Why pay £20 if you can get this for £15 with a spare phone thrown in?

Thanks everyone, that vectone looks really good, that £1 a month jobby looks like it will do me fine. Seems amazing value.Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.0

I've been following this since it's very similar to something I also want. But I did some research into Vectone and the reviews are appalling. Does anyone have any other providers that might be close but with a cleaner service record?0
