    sim only are excellent.

    Also try Virgin (on EE network). £6/month for 300mins
  • Tesco Mobile is usually good but, since the weekend in my area (Cardiff) my mobile has displayed 'Emergency Calls Only'. There was no warning. I contacted Tesco to be uniformed that the O2 mast is down and, while it is being worked on, they cannot advise when it will be back in service

    White Calling (formerly White Mobile) also runs on EE. No frills, but generally works OK.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Never had any issues with Tesco Mobile in the 4 years i have been with them after having issues with EE which ended with EE waiving 12 months of my contract without and fees and £100 compo
  • I'm on 1pmobile and very happy so far. You cant beat 1p for everything. Plus they are really quick to answer and helpful on the phone. I would steer clear of Three - terrible network coverage.
    1pmobile are on EE too

    Thanks for you replies all. Not quite sure why people are suggesting other networks when I was very specific in the title which one I want...
    I cant stand the Asda website, reminds me of traipsing around their supermarket. Kens tips was useful, thanks for the link

    You did in the tile but not the text that followed.
    Hi,
    I'm slightly bewildered by all the options available at the moment. I've had a look at the megathread here, and the 'cheap pay-as-you-go' quicklink here. But there's limited options for the EE network. I don't want a bundle with Asda.
    Can anyone recommend a good pay as you go network?

    What's wrong with the Asda website, you only need to order a SIM from it or get one in-store and you can then topup in various stores not just Asda and may be via an ATM so you don't need to visit it or them at all once sorted. And a lot cheaper than EE direct and no need for a bundle.

    Yes you only need to order a SIM for their website. Takes all of 1 minute.
