    You have nothing in there for clothes, dry cleaning, replacing household goods, gifts, holidays, dentists, opticians, haircuts...

    why cant you get rid of the old phone?
    1. No holidays
    2. No gifts (no family)
    3. Haven't been to a dentist since 2019
    4. I cut my own hair
    5. No optician, no need

    Because i can't. I need the number for reasons I cba to explain to a stranger, respectfully.
    Then can you get rid of the new (more expensive) phone? £78 a month is a big chunk of your income on a second phone.

    If you really must have two phones/two numbers, then there are substantially cheaper options out there.

    Why is everyone bailing in on the OP on one small detail on the information posted when we haven't even seen the full picture and they have already advised that they have anxiety issues?
