Can you use a mobile phone SIM card in a tablet or do you need a "special " Tablet SIM Card? Also is there a way around the 30 day expiry that most PAYG SIM Cards come with?

Thanks

    Depends on the provider, but data only SIMs sometimes work out cheaper, i.e. EE's 200Mb for 1p at Currys if you can find one.

    They don't expire after 30 days, only bundles purchased expire, the SIM will itself expire after 90 or 180 days if no chargeable event occurs during that time.
