i have just pruchased a sim from a shop, i want a simple PAYG sim where i can top up as and when i want and not a reocurring £10.00 charge. Its not exactly clear what i have, i topped up £10.00 but i do not want to to happen the following month. Im using the sim card to open and close a gate so it i dont need a monthly top up.
Checked my account and it does show PAYG but under it shows
7GB of data, unlimited minutes and unlimited texts for £10 a month. Includes data rollover of up to 7GB a month.
I clicked under changed tarrif, and you have a rolling tariff option or a standard tariff option, both seem to be that a monthly charge, have i got that correct. I cant seem to find a way to get hold of O2 to check

1pMobile uses the EE network.

If you don't top up an O2 PAYG sim at least once every 6 months, it will be deactivated.
Likewise with 1pMobile, there are minimum amounts that you have to top up regularly to continue receiving the network signal.
Look at giffgaff (runs on O2) which may well be the cheapest for you but will still require top ups to remain active.
No network will keep a sim active now without some level of funding.
