I ordered from Amazon, arrived with no hassle. Trouble is with using it abroad long term. Some providers cut you off after 3 months. Sorry, can not give you advice on a good provider. Old contracts are usually fine, pay as you go should work as well. On my sim was written, that could be activated only in uk, but I did it in Spain. So kind of pot luck. I wish you a very good luck.

Hi, I have a couple of giffgaff sims which I don’t need.  They haven’t been activated yet which you can do online. You are welcome to have them.
