Hi - I want to get a PAYG SIM on EE network for rare voice and SMS use only. All I can see include data package which I don't need. Looked as Asda - they're on EE at mo but switching over to Vodafone. Also looked at 1pMobile (also on EE) but see need to top up £10 every 3 months. Any other ideas please? Happy to send occasional text just to keep account 'active'.

    Just because it includes data as standard doesn't mean you have to use it.   Data is cheap, compared to the infrastructure, so its no biggie to a provider to lob it in as standard.

    If you don't want to use one of their packs buy the cheapest one which is £10 and then do the following below.
    Text STOP PACK to 150 before you next top-up & you can use the SIM as normal PAYG at standard per-unit rates.
