Re: Other countries I live in the UK.
I have a pay-as-you-go SIM from a more recent upstart network (one with among the best 3G coverage), and for my £10 topup (doesn't expire), I get 300 text messages, 150MB of data, unlimited same-network calls, free Skype (it uses the voice network to make voice calls) and free MSN. I also get my original £10.
If I wanted more data? £5 per month for 2GB, which I am not supposed to tether with but I can (not enforced), or £10 for 1GB where I can legitimately tether. Voice calls cost 20p/min.
Another nice thing about this is that if said network ups its rates or displeases me in some way, I'll just get a free SIM on another network and put it in my unlocked, unbranded phone, get my number ported within a couple of days (might be changing to a matter of minutes soon) and continue.
I could even get a rolling monthly SIM-free contract, where I get tons of value for not having a subsidised phone. |
