UK Prepaid Cell Service, Plan B
I purchased a Virgin Mobile SIM from Telesital along with the tri-band ’phone because it’s the only brand they presently offer. However, I’m still on the look out for any better deals that I might be able to get once I’m on location. Just off the bat, O2 does not look like such. Many of the features of their pay-as-you-go plans look nice, like the extras you get for fairly minimal (£10) monthly top ups; 100 extra minutes or messages. However, one big down side comes when you step out of the O2 system. Calling mobile in, as we say, “another” network? Bad customer! Bad! Don’t do that again! That’ll be 40p/min.
