@Rf1  All o2 sims will do what you want as they are gsm  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM and gprs https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Packet_Radio_Service

 

so find the best data only sim payg or sim only pay monthly that fits your need 

iPhone 11 Pro 256gb on unlimited data
iPad Pro 12.9” 2020 256gb refresh o2 family discount
Apple Watch series 4
My first mobile was in 1995 a CM-R111 from sony on Cellnet.

@Rf1  You can take a look at this page, which has all the available sims and tariffs: https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/sim-cards

As far as I'm aware, I could be wrong, but sims have nothing to do with GPRS. I believe it's the device itself that has it.

I tried to Google your device. Is this it? https://www.amacam.net/gps-trackers/am-t22/

I’d go for the classic PAYG at just 1pm’s per mb of data and top up as required.

It won’t as you don’t have an iPad.

It will work, as a data sim for an iPad is just a datasim... it can be used in any device but for data only...

You may need the apn settings for o2 though.
