Can anyone recommend a SIM card to get once I arrive in the UK? I am not likely to need many calls or texts, but would like to have a few GB of data available, including for use on a laptop. Unfortunately I had some trouble with these simple requirements last time I was in the UK:
1. I previously had a UK (Orange) SIM card which was impossible to activate without a UK credit card.
2. On non-contract plans, many of the UK networks seem to disallow use of "Personal Hotspot", which would otherwise be the easiest way to get my laptop onto the Internet.
Does anyone know of a SIM card and plan I can get which is suitable for short-term visitors and which allows the paid-for data to be used without too many restrictions?
