UK mobile phone filter: What is a good pay-as-you-go tariff for the emergency mobile phone of an elderly person who will scarcely ever call out? (We have got him one of the RNIB easy-to-read phones that is not locked to a network.)
UPDATE: Most networks insist that you *make* a call once every 60 to 90 days (receiving is not enough, same with text messages). Exceptions: 1. Orange allow incoming text messages to reactivate the sim (you can text a message to your friend every now and then or 2. Virgin direct debit 'tarriff' - it charges no money if you dont make a call but since it is a 'contract' the sim doesnt go dead
