Guest Big Ron - No Longer a Mem Posted April 14, 2003 Report Posted April 14, 2003 www.scancom.co.uk - and some amazing deals on contract SIMs (no phone, just the SIM!) too. I switched from minimal use of an Orange PAYG SIM to a "60 minutes a month any time, to any phone" deal that costs me.... £3.54 a month. At that price, who needs PAYG ?!
Guest squall Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 the reason i want a pay as you go is so i cant spend more than i need to. If any one see's any other free sim card deals, with free delivery please let me know, thanks for the replys to.
Guest Big Ron - No Longer a Mem Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 That's quite a tall order = "something for nothing". There are a lot of people out there (my mother, my mother in law for two) who like the idea of having a mobile in their handbags "for emergencies", which they never actually USE, but just like having. Your suggestion is that the Telco's should hand them a free SIM, let them recieve incoming calls, AND pay postage on it. I shifted from PAYG after years of low-use when I saw the ultra cheap O2 & T-mobile "SIM only" contracts. An hour of "anytime" usage for £3.54 a month + a one off £10 delivery is a LOT cheaper than PAYG. And that's just the tariff that suits MY needs best - I seldom make calls from my mobile at night. If you DO make evening calls, then there are alternative deals on "Off peak" offering 500 or 750 minutes a month (off peak ONLY, plus 50 SMS "anytime") for the same kind of silly money. (But delivery doubles to £20) Given deals like that, I cannot understand anyone using PAYG. The same guys offer "99p" Orange PAYG cards, but DO ask you to pay for delivery. They're a business, not a charity.
Guest squall Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 there was a phone company (used to be o2, who gave sim cards away free with 500 free messages a month, catch was you had to put £10 in a month, which was reasonable.
