Temporary sim for transferring out and back in again?

My current provider, plusnet won't let me transfer my number to another plusnet sim so I'm going to have to get a PAC code then transfer out to a another provider's payg sim then transfer back in again to the new plusnet sim. Ridiculous right? But that's the way it is.

So, I'm looking for a free payg sim that won't force me to top up by £10 to activate it as I'm only going to transfer out again straight away anyway.

I hope that makes sense. What are my options?

Thanks :-)

  • Supermarkets have 99p SIMs at the checkout, as do many corner shops. I don't know if you get a few "free" minutes on them or not.

    Three will send you a SIM for free.
