PAYG - No minimum use clause

Ian1943 · 17-09-2011, 14:33

Hi,

Does anyone know a provider on PAYG who does not have a minimum use clause in the small print? In other words a plan which does not require you to top up your credit periodically irrespective of the fact that you still have credit on your phone.
Thanks for any help.

I use T-Mobile PAYG to text only, and a top up remains viable as long as a text or call is made/received every 2 or 3 months.

Not sure what the latest plans are though.

Tesco PAYG (piggybacks on O2) probably has the same T&Cs. You can also switch the plan to Tesco Lite for cheaper calls and texts if you're a lite user.

It may be worth looking at the Three Sim Zero rolling monthly contract.

i dont think you have to topup to keep the credit

I think most providers require you to make or receive a call or txt every 6 months

i have loads of sims with pennys on them that i use to test phones and some are years old

Orange certainly don't require frequent top-ups, they do require a call/text every now and then.

Not sure of the time scale but it's probably around once every 4 to 6 months
