SIM pay as you go 3

Rico77 · 2020-05-12 13:32:45

Anyone know if I can just purchase a sim card with 3 without having to buy a plan ? tis confusing on the 3 website. Is there not an option to buy a sim and top up only when you need to ? I have an old phone that I just want for my daughter to use WhatsApp only on wifi but obviously require a phone number to validate

Don't think so, they always required either a top up of 20e to get SIM for "free" or else the SIM on it's own was a tenner.

48 and Lyca have free SIMs if ordered online. Lyca SIMs are also available in some shops (Spar Centra Gala etc) at a cost of a euro.
