Basic sim card, basic pay as you go.

I need a basic sim card for my Mother, I've looked online but everything I see seems to say 15gb here or 25gb there.

Its the most basic phone possible, she can't text let alone use data on the internet, so what is the easiest option?

Simply a sim card that costs a quid then put a tenner on it?

Depends how much she's going to use her phone. Worth a look: https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/cheap-mobile-finder/sim-only-filters/

Thanks a lot, I'll have a look.
She hardly uses it, its more for emergencies. I tend to call her but as her current phone is getting worse I ring the house to alert her (it would take forever for her to get to the phone) and she puts the mobile phone on. Very convoluted!

I bought a Tesco sim-only mobile for my mother a few years ago ‘just for emergencies’ as she rarely went out the house so had the landline she used in normal circumstances. We found out though that by never using it she lost the credit we bought for her. Having put £10 on another couple of occasions and having lost that as well, we just gave up.
