The Lowdown on Free Sim Cards
Free simcards are very popular amongst mobile phone users. One of the main attractions is that they give a quick and simple route from contracts that cost the user on a monthly basis. Pay as you go sims are the least restrictive choice for customers in payment terms, as there is no requirement at all to pay out every 30 days. Lets look at the tariffs available:
Orange Free Simcards
Orange offer 4 key packages to their pay as you talk offering – Dolphin, Canary, Racoon and Camel.
Dolphin is targeted at text users - with extra texts available.
Canary is ideal for off peak phone calls (evenings and weekends).
Racoon is the option for off and on peak (all day) calls.
Camel provides competitive overseas call and message pricing.

o2 Free Sims
o2, like Orange, offer several choices depending on your call and text patterns:
Favourite Place gives bonus call time from a specific place, for example where you work.
Talkalotmore is designed for evening and weekend callers.
Text Anytime as the name suggests is great for texters.
o2 Unlimited at the time of press is the most popular option, with unlimited calls and messages to other o2 customers.
Your Country is the last package, perfect for calling abroad.

It’s also worth considering sim only packages if you are a regular mobile user. Although it does still technically mean signing up for a contract, they can usually be ended after 30 days, and a month can cost as little as a tenner. In other words, if you top up by ten pounds or more a month this is probably the right option for your needs. All the big networks now offer something along these lines, and there’s plenty of help available on the internet – a fantastic overview table is available here.
