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

TIA for any replies.

It may not be the best value, but it is very simple. I got a 'phone
from Carphone Warehouse, that cost me £12 to buy. I pay £5 per month,
for 100 minutes, which I rarely use, as it is for emergencies. But once
the DD is set up, I never have to do anything. The supplier is
Talkmobile.
