Cheapest Company
In July i will be cancelling my contract with T-mobile as my contract will run out to go back to PAYG. I have a Nokia 6100. Obviously when i cancel with T-mobile the current sim card i have will be no good so i'm looking to buy a new PAYG Sim Card, but i'm stuck on what is the best and cheapest company to go with. I mainly use my phone for texting with the occasional phone call.
I've seen Sim Cards going cheap on E bay so i want to know which to go for. :rolleyes:

You can't go far wrong with o2 online - 300 free texts a month as long as you top up £10 per month(the £10 is yours to use as you wish)0 -
Cool..i'll check their website out..:)0

Don't bother with eBay. Offers for free SIMs with all the providers come round once in a while. You've got plenty of time to spot one for yourself instead of buying someone else's free one. And the rest of the time, those O2 ones are often only 99p0

I went to the online 02 PAYG tariff..When i top up the £10 minimum a month is that all i pay? What i mean is i'm not on a contract am i? So if i say put in £15 a month, thats all i pay..have i got that right? And can i get it now from 02 and just pay the rest of my T-mobile contract bill as it arrives until July with obviously no calls or texts being used.0

Yes that is all you pay, it isn't a contract!
Yes you can get it now and just pay off your t-mobile!0 -
Just port (transfer your number) to a PAYG SIM - be aware of Easymobile - 2p for a text and 6p xnet and you get £10 credit for a fiver. This offer is till the end of June. There are some decent contracts (without texts) for £30 for the year on the Nokia 3120 through cashback.

The O2 SIM is good and the £10 can give you 300 texts or a combination of 100 min xnet and 100 texts - but be aware that this is only for 30 days from topup. You'll probably get a free SIM from someone on here -if you ask nicely. However - Easymobile may be best for you.

Easymobile is a good deal, but I think its just too complicated for the average user - there's loads of t&c, the price may go back back up in a few months. You'd have to look into it thoroughly before choosing easymobile0

I've already sighned up to 02 now. I can't get a PAC code yet from T-mobile as they say i'll be charged £45 for an early contract cancellation fee. So i'll just pay my usual monthly fee until July when my contract runs out. When it does run out can i then get my existing number transfered and get a PAC code in July or will that be too late?0

why not ask tmobile to match or better the best deal going, they might give you something with a phone too so you can always sell the phone to ofset the cost of the line rental.ummm...0

Too late now..but i can imagine them saying no0
