Any networks that rolls over a top-up?

Sprogger

I have a phone for my son which he uses only to text me or my wife to let us know that he's back home from school and for emergencies.

Therefore, when a month goes by, only about £3 could be used. Are there companies that allow any top-ups to be rolled over or do I have to keep topping up each month?

I can see there are companies that have 'data' rollovers but that's no use for us.

Thanks very much and hope you can help.

I can go 18 months without topping up my phone. Credit never expires.

Three 123 PAYG.

Same here with O2 Classic PAYG. My £10 top up lasts me about a year, especially at their new 3p/2p/1p rates.

The OP appears to be buying "Packs" which expire.

True PAYG the credit remains

What provider are you using ?

try not buying a 'bundle' which tend to expire after a month, and just top up the credit and see how he goes on. My OH uses 3 and £10 has lasted her 18 months+. Just need to make a chargeable call or text every so often to keep the number live, but the credit never expires

if you are on EE you need to text STOP PACK to 150

As per the other replies, Three or O2 (Classic) PAYG is 2p per text and the top up doesn't expire.
