Look at 1pMobile, giffgaff or Tesco for the lowest cost PAYG sims.

I'm aware but still one of the lowest cost PAYG sims you can get.

[minty1]

if top up£10 for the 8gb and within that month top up another £10 will this extra £10 be carried over as extra credit it bump it up to the £20 monthly bundle?

@minty1 

No, it will just add credit.

If you want to change to the £20 bundle you must select it in your MyO2 or text:

If you're already on Pay As You Go, text one of the following free to 21300:

Big Bundles

• BIGBUNDLE5 for the £5 tariff
• 10DATABB for the £10 tariff
• 15DATABB for the £15 tariff
• 20DATABB for the £20 tariff
• 30DATABB for the £30 tariff

I use giffgaff as a strait payg in a car tracker. I just put £5 on when the balance drops below £2

[minty1]

@EnlliIve seen giff gaff are minimum inital top up of £10 and like O2 that gives you 8GB and not something looking for, is this correct or can you get round this?

With giffgaff, you can just add credit without having a bundle and just pay standard rates.

There is a requirement to top up though to keep the sim active.
