Pay as you go

[LesBooth20]

Hi. I need a sim where I would only need to make a call once every 3 months or so. If I get a pay as you go sim and put £20 credit on it - what happens after 30 days - do I lose that credit ?

@LesBooth20 : Not if you don't sign up for a recurring pack. What you want is the free Talk and Text Plan on EE pay as you go SIM 

To save the SIM going into hibernation due to lack of use, just remember within every 179 days (~ 6 months) to make a chargeable action like making a chargeable call or text, topping up or buying a Pack or Add-on, not just using your mins, texts or data from any Pack or Add-on you might have.

Many thanks, forgive me for being obtuse - not quite sure what you mean by "not just using your mins, texts or data from any Pack or Add-on you might have."

If you did buy a pack or add-on that counts as a chargeable action but when you use any of its contents (mins, texts or data) that doesn't count.

If you never buy a pack this won't concern you.

Sorry to be so long replying. Now understood - sim ordered. Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks
