Free SIM Cards
March 22, 2009
A few people have recently asked me about free SIM cards on Pay As You Go (PAYG) for mobile phones, so I thought I should perhaps provide a quick summary of the different options on offer.
Given the current economic climate, everyone is trying to save money wherever they can and I know from experience as when coming towards the end of my current mobile phone contract, I didn’t really want to commit to yet another 18 month contract, especially when I don’t use the included minutes and text messages that I’m paying for now.

March 2, 2009
In the past I’ve mentioned that you can get a free T-Mobile SIM card on Pay As You Go (PAYG), that way you are no longer tied to being on a contract paying a monthly line rental fee – I‘ve recently gone back onto PAYG myself and certainly for me I’m finding it the cheaper option as we’re all looking for ways to save money these days.
With that in mind, T-Mobile are currently running a special offer whereby you not only get a free T-Mobile SIM card, but you can also receive 1000 free texts as part of the deal – all you need to do is top-up your new SIM card by the 30th April 2009 and the 1000 free texts will then be added to your PAYG SIM card within 28 days.

February 25, 2009
A few weeks ago we brought you news of the Amazon Kindle 2 release, the new electronic book reader from Amazon which was the successor to the very successful Kindle. However this didn’t mean an awful lot to us UK dwellers because despite the Kindle’s success we haven’t even seen a glimpse of it this side of the Atlantic.
Due to several reasons the Kindle has not come to UK, Europe or anywhere else outside of USA, and the Amazon Kindle 2 looked set to continue this trend. However when iFixit got hold of it they tore it apart (or rather they disassembled it) and had a look at what was inside: and to their surprise there was what looked like a space for a SIM card.

My attention now turns to a free 3 sim card in what seems like a never-ending quest to find the best Pay As You Go (PAYG) bargain deal on the various mobile phone networks.
In the past I have never seriously considered the 3 mobile network because I was always under the false impression that you needed to be situated in a city to actually get any signal on the 3 network.
However, I was recently speaking to a friend of mine who has a mobile phone on 3 and he has recommended that I should definitely take a look at getting a free 3 sim card if at all possible, since their network coverage is usually much better than some other networks, specifically in our area the T-Mobile and Vodafone networks are a bit hit and miss – to the point there is no signal at all sometimes.

I was recently talking to a friend of mine who had got a free Tesco SIM card for her mobile phone, she has recently got sick of paying out each month and being bound to a contract with one of the main large mobile networks which just did not give her value for money.
Tesco (the UK Supermarket) has been selling Pay As You Go mobile phones for a number of years now, they began by selling PAYG handsets of the major networks, but in recent times they have been mobile phone handsets on their own branded Tesco Mobile network – which actually uses the O2 network much like Virgin Mobile uses T-Mobile.

When I saw that you could get a free Virgin SIM card for your existing mobile phone, I thought I’d may as well get one and see what Virgin Mobile is like as a ‘Pay As You Go’ (PAYG) mobile phone network, especially since my current Orange contract expires this week!
When you receive your free Virgin SIM card (with monthly payments starting at £15, but no long contracts) you will then be able to take advantage of the following PAYG tariff:
- Pick up more minutes and texts than you would with a contract
- Keep your phone and number
- No long-term contract – you aren’t tied-in to a lengthy contract
- Plus some neat extras like free voicemail in the UK and free itemised online statements
Free Orange SIM Card
April 3, 2008
I’ve been looking at getting a free Orange SIM card recently because my current Orange contract finishes at the end of this month. I’m considering going back onto ‘pay as you go’ (PAYG) given my relatively low usage in terms of making calls and only send around 30 texts a month on average.
The tariff on this free Orange SIM card seems to be quite reasonable if your usage of your mobile phone is fairly low, based on the following tariff costs, I think I’d definitely be paying less per month than the line rental that I’m currently paying on my Orange contract.

March 22, 2008
Why am mentioning a pay as you go Free Vodafone SIM Card again? Well, I recently wrote about a couple of cheap – well make that free ways of getting some free sim cards for your mobile phone.
These kind of offers are especially good if you’re now at the end of your contract and just want to put a PAYG sim card in your mobile. It’s almost a year since I originally wrote about getting free Vodafone SIM cards and thought it might be good to just re-cap on the offers that are available as they do change over time.

March 10, 2008
I thought it might be useful if I told you about a free O2 sim card – it’s been a while now since I last posted some SIM card bargains on the site – free is the best price for any cheap bargain!
With this offer you can get up to 4 free O2 SIM cards that include unlimited O2 to O2 calls and texts when you top up your PAYG account with at least £15 per month – so if most of your friends are also on O2, then you can all benefit from free calls and texts!

A free T-Mobile SIM card? Could I interest you in one of these? You can now get a free Pay As You Go (PAYG) SIM card from the T-Mobile website, this PAYG SIM card includes free weekend texts when you top up at least £10 on a Friday.
Sounds like a good deal to me, unfortunately the network coverage around me might not be that great, but I’m getting one to test it out before I put lots of top-up onto this free T-Mobile SIM card. However, if the T-Mobile network coverage is good in your area, then this offer is a great bargain!
