Don't Want to Upgrade? Check Out Virgin Mobile's SIM-Only Deals

There are two main options that you are going to get when you go with the SIM only plans from Virgin Mobile.  The first option is going to be the pay as you go.  This means that when you need more minutes on your phone, then you will just buy them.  When you go with this option, then you are going to have two different deals to work with.
The first deal is the big data and texts.  This is going to allow you to post, comment, tweet, and browse all day long without worrying about going over your data plan.  For ten pounds, you are going to get unlimited data and three hundred texts.  For fifteen pounds, you are going to get unlimited data and unlimited texts.  You can also use these ten to fifteen pounds for your airtime if you need to.

The second option is going to be the pay monthly SIM only.  This means that you are going to be paying for your cell phone each month.  Most of the time, these are going to be the most affordable plans that you can get from Virgin Mobile.  One of the most important plans is the unlimited texts and one hundred minutes on it.  But you are only going to be able to get this type of plan if you got the Virgin Broadband, TV, or phone.
If you have a Blackberry, then you are going to be able to get a plan for just ten pounds a month.  This plan is going to include five hundred megabytes of data and unlimited texts.  The contracts for these plans are only going to be for thirty days.  Therefore, it is going to be a lot easier to get out of this contract if you are not happy with your phone.  This is one of the biggest benefits that you are going to love when you have this type of Blackberry plan.
You have the option of buying your phone plan online if that is more convenient for you.  You can also keep the current cell phone number that you have so that you are not going to have to give out your friends and family a new number.  All you have to do is to ask your current cell phone provider for your PAC code.  Then you can call Virgin Mobile to give them this code so that they are able to transfer this number over for you.  Most of the time, this can be done for you in one day.
There are a couple of different things that are going to be included in the pay monthly plan.  The first thing is that you are going to be able to have person to person texts within the United Kingdom.  The second thing is that you are going to be able to make United Kingdom calls to United Kingdom landlines.  But the 070 numbers are not going to be included in the monthly plan.
It is very important that if you have an iPhone or iPad, then you are not going to have international data roaming with the SIM only plan.
