Hi All. Off topic but there is so much knowledge here ....

93 year old Mum goes in to hospital on Sunday. Sim free mobile (Doro 332)
is on its way.

Mum will only want a sim for calls. Will have moderate use whilst in
hospital for a few days and then be used only for emergencies.

I am having a lot of difficulty finding out how long credit and sim lasts
if unused.

Anyone got any recommendations please?

Hospital has reception problems with t-mobile and orange but 02 and
Vodafone based networks are OK

Asda mobile, vodafone based 10ppm flat at all times, non expiring credit
but recommended to make a call (even just to connect to her own landline
for 30s) once every 3mths or so to keep the sim alive. Sim is 50p in
store.

Top up can be by nominated credit card but voice prompts can be
difficult for hard of hearing elderly.
