Hi All, we've not long arrived in Palomares and have been busy setting up our new apartment here. 

We've now reached the point where we are looking for a basic PAY AS YOU GO SIM card. What could possibly be easier??? Get your SIM, chuck a tenner on there, wait until it's about to run out after 6 months, chuck another tenner on. 

Has ANYONE been able to cut this gordian knot? Can ANYONE suggest how this might be achieved? Or would I be better off using my spare time trying to split the atom or inventing a perpetual motion machine?

Best Regards to One and All,

Jim

I use Simyo. Use google to access Simyo and you will get English option. I get 2gb and 20 minutes talking which is fine for me cos I use WhatsApp and everywhere has free WiFi. This costs me €4 per month. Operated by orange and 4g everywhere. They have more expensive packages but you said you want basic.

Thanks Doris,

In the style of a Dutch Auction, can anyone undercut €4/month?

Think the only way to undercut €4pm is 2 empty baked bean cans and a long string. 😂😂

But the Simyo €4 package is cheaper and you get more minutes and more data.

Thanks Peeps, a Spanish friend turned up yesterday with a Digi SIM for me.  Sometimes in life our hand is taken and we are led in a particular direction.  Who am I not to go with the flow.

Thanks for all your comments.

Doris, do you know if you can conference call using the bean can method?

Sorry, I’m not sure.
