LTE tablet and phone issues
Just been given a Samsung LTE tablet - fantastic till we realise all the restrictions with using the 4g when one already have a mobile phone. First we found you can't in the UK have two sims on the same no: 2 now realise whatsapp won't allow the same user to be registered on 2 devices.
So we need a second sim, but one we are infrequently going to use when not on wifi. Ideally we want a new sim probably payg, but from a cursory look most cancel any cash after 30 days.
Is there such a thing as payg that doesn't cancel monies/credit paid after 30 days?
Love to hear about how others may have got round these restrictions.
Thanks in anticipation!

Yes. The one I am using in my iPad now is a three PAYG data sim. 12Gb lasts 12 months from the time you first use it. 24Gb lasts 24 months etc.
I believe EE also have similar PAYG sims. I use Three because their coverage in rural areas is better.
BTW can you get two sims with the same number in any country?0 -
