I've had a virgin payg for 20years and been quite happy with it... but the company is phasing their service out...
Any suggestions which company I should switch to?
I barely use it so I don't want to have to top it up very often... I think I lasted topped this one up about 2 years ago... which was convenient for me...
And I barely use it... I send a few texts a year... less than ten... and rarely make calls... maybe a few a year... probably less than five... and very short ones at that...

RWG. Runs on EE. £0 a month 50 mins or texts,and 250mb a month free. Renews 25th of the month. Ideal for low users. Had no problems at all with them0

I also have a back up sim on Virgin Mobile payg that I use very little, because I have a contract main sim, and I recently moved my Virgin number to Asda Mobile.Asda Mobile is on the Vodafone network, charges 4p per min, text, MB data, and needs usage within every 270 days.
- 4p per minute to any UK mobile or landline
- 4p per text to any UK number; and
- 4p per MB of data
If you haven't used your Asda Mobile SIM in the last 270 days, all activity will be barred from your SIM card and all credit will be removed.
After 360 days, your number will be disconnected from the network and the number will be deleted. We're unable to reactivate a SIM if the number has not been used for over 360 days.
