Looking for a cheap mobile phone

Hi. I hope someone can help. I'm looking for a basic and cheap mobile phone to use until I get my upgrade at the end of May. I am rubbish when it comes to the technical side of mobile phones so if anyone has any suggestions about phones, pay as you go sim cards etc I'd be extremely grateful.
Cheers!
Phil

Free Nokia 130 with £10.00 topup @ EE
Quidco £9. The topup can be used for getting the phone unlocked.
Why do you need a SIM if you have a contract one?
Also, don't assume that the upgrade you are waiting for is your best option, especially if it's an early upgrade. Shop around. Very often, if not usually, new customers get better deals. Don't ignore TCB/Quidco.
Also, sim-free + sim-only/PAYG can be cheaper than a contract. In this case you can buy the phone you want now and then switch to a cheaper tariff when your minimum term expires.0 -
I've got a 3 sim card and I don't know what phone it would be compatible with. Thanks for replying.0

For '3' SIM you need a 3g-capable phone. The above Nokia is 2g only.
Save yourself a fortune. If you don't have money on a top branded phone, buy cheaply a less know Chinese one: Doogee, Wileyfox, ...
