I need a second UK number to operate WhatsApp on a second phone. I have been trying to do ths as cheaply as possible. Does anyone know of an operator which charges less than £5 topup to activate the number ?
Thanks You

Comes ready to receive calls and texts without a topup. After six months your number may be restricted

I used asda mobile for months for incoming calls only without a topup before deciding to invest a fiver for credit.
Once whatsapp is activated you can use it on WiFi without a live sim.0 -

Plus Three. I have had a Three SIM for about 24 months now - never topped up and still works in a very old ex-work phone. Pretty sure its on borrowed time but when it does get slashed I will just get another on.1
