Does anyone know of the cheapest basic pay as you go phone around at the moment. Stepson had his stolen today.
Step daughter had hers stolen last year so you would think he would have not left it in his jacket and gone and done PE !!!!
I want to give him mine and put my O2 sim in a new phone. Does the new phone have to be O2 for this to work.

    For security, they are step children with a lunatic Birth mother and maternal grandparents who they do not see unless she/they turn up and threaten to take them away. They have been threatened to many times to feel safe with out them.

    Or perhaps the Mobile Phone forums may help
