I like the number. But I never use it as my main for data and calls. I don't want to pay £7 a month for this.
I want to port this number out to a different network.
Where is good for like £1 a month? or a pay as you go where I only have to top up every year or so?","comment":[{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/49593859","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"KodaBear"},"datePublished":"2023-02-18T17:37:33.000Z","text":"If you want a cheap monthly plan forever then Vectone (EE) do £2.99 a month for 150 mins 150 texts and 1GB Data - vectonemobile.co.uk/sim…ans - The benefit of getting a proper contract like this is that it will keep your account and number active even if you don’t make a call, compared to the prepaid options and bundles mentioned below.
If you’re happy to jump around then Lyca (o2) via MSE will do you 1p a month for 6 months. But £4.75 Thereafter if you don’t move it around again to another cheap deal.
Alternatively just get a pay as you go SIM from pretty much any network you like. Top it up with some credit. And make a reminder to switch it on and make a chargeable call every 89 days. After 90 days of inactivity the account would be disabled and you risk losing it. I personally use Vectone for my spare SIMs to keep them active purely because they’ve not let me down for the past decade nor have they changed their prices. But as I said anywhere is good. Even if you just pick up a SIM in the supermarket. Asda Mobile for example. £5 credit. Only need to make a chargeable call every 90 days to stay active. Same situation again."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/49593824","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Gollywood"},"datePublished":"2023-02-18T17:30:55.000Z","text":"You like it as if it were a cherished / private / personalised car registration plate?"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/49593980","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Deedie"},"datePublished":"2023-02-18T17:53:10.000Z","text":"Rwg mobile would work for this."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/49594959","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Hotspur"},"datePublished":"2023-02-18T20:19:31.000Z","text":"Tesco mobile.
