United Kingdom (UK)
- 8GB Data
Please note: If you need more than 8GB of Data then please either purchase our UK 100GB SIM card or multiple 8GB sim cards accordingly.
- Unlimited Minutes to standard UK landlines and mobiles
- Unlimited Texts to UK Mobiles
The included unlimited minutes and texts can only be made to standard UK landline numbers (for the UK starting 01, 02, 03) and mobiles within the UK. Calls to other numbers including Premium rate, Business rate numbers and non-UK numbers are not included.
International Calling
In order to make international phone calls from the UK, you will need to add credit to the sim card. You can only add credit whilst you are in the UK, at O2 stores, supermarkets, petrol stations and convenience stores. Unfortunately, you are unable to top-up online via the O2 website, as it requires a UK debit/credit card that is linked to a UK residential address.
Alternatively, we recommend that you use data based apps such as Whatsapp, Viber, Skype, etc to make international phone calls rather than adding credit for international calls.
The UK Prepaid SIM Card plan will last 30 Days from activation. If you are staying longer than 30 days, you will need to recharge the sim. As mentioned above, if you wish to add credit or recharge the sim you can only do this whilst you are in the UK, at O2 stores, supermarkets, petrol stations and convenience stores. Unfortunately, you are unable to top-up online via the O2 website, as it requires a UK debit/credit card that is linked to a UK residential address.
However, we advise that you visit an O2 store when recharging, as this will ensure that the recharge has been done correctly and you have received the most appropriate plan.
Alternatively, as another option if you are travelling for longer than 30 days, you can purchase additional sim cards based on the duration of your travels. If you are travelling for 56 days you can purchase 2 separate sim cards, and then swap them over at the end of each 30 day period.
You will receive a 3-in-1 sim card; which includes all sizes (Standard, Micro and Nano). This sim card will fit in any phone. You simply need to just pop out the sim card size that fits your phone.
Any unlocked mobile phone (mobile phone not locked to any network).
Please note: that being on a post-paid plan or contract with your local carrier doesn't mean your phone is locked. If you are unsure, please check with your current service provider.
This sim will be active from the activation date you provided at the time of purchase and will be when your 30 days begins. This is the date that you can start using your services, when you are in UK
The activation date is based on Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) and will occur between 12-3am. Should you wish to change this date after your purchase, please contact us at least 3 days prior to your noted arrival date, so we can change the commencement date of your 30 day service. You can email us at support@simcorner.com to do this. However, we cannot change the actual time of when the activation occurs, only the date.
Should you wish to change the activation date after you have purchased, please contact us at support@simcorner.com at least 3 days prior to the noted activation date. Whilst using the sim card you will need to have both MOBILE DATA and DATA ROAMING functions ENABLED/TURNED ON in your phone.
Your phone number can be found on the sim packaging. The phone number starts with 07. The sim card is a local UK sim card, hence it will have a UK phone number.
Should anyone want to call you on your phone number, they would need to drop the leading 0 and add the UK country code +44 in front of the phone number,
For example, if the phone number noted on the pack is 07307452691, they would need to dial +447307452691. (To get the + on a mobile phone, press and hold 0 until it turns into a +)
