help me buy a PAYG and sim

Dan-Dan

Hi All

I was lucky enough to have a fully expensed samsung galaxy 3 mini with work , on 02 , i am moving jobs , and the new one doenst have this perk , and its been more than 5 years since i ventured into the world of PAYG (not interested in contract)

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a mobile itself , budget £150 or LESS! and more importantly the best provider that will help me keep call costs down (and texts) , also my wife is on 02 , so the cheapest way to call her would be appreciate as well

Cheers in advance

I know you're not looking at contracts (I'm not a fan of them either), but a SIM-only contract, even a 30 day one, is generally far better value than a PAYG. My last one was £10 a month, which when you think how fast you can rinse a £10 voucher on PAYG, is hard to beat.

Moto G and 3 network 321 plan

But you also check o2: https://www.o2.co.uk/freesim/

hmmm , thank you , maybe i need to have a think then , so a contract sim only , would probably give me far better all in texts/minutes , than sticking with traditional PAYG?

You could try something like the Three 3-2-1 PAYG sim for a month or two when you can assess what your usage is going to be.

thanks
i spent a while reading reviews on the moto and got one at £129 from amazon , seems a good phone , fine for my needs

I am looking at 3 for the sim ,my priority is as many all in minutes as possible , not fussed about data or texts really

Wammer

Hoe many minutes do you need?

https://www.ovivomobile.com £20 for the sim which gives you £15 credit and 250 mins, 300 texts and 500MB data every money free of charge.

something like 500 mins a month really , just so that i am covered shoudl i need to ring home etc

Virgin do Unlimited calls, texts and data for £15 a month last time i looked. You'd pay that just for 500 minutes on Three 321. I'm on Three, I do think they are great value for a light user.
