What happened to daring to be different? What happened to having options? What happened to creativity?

Oh excellent I stand corrected. All the sim plans I've seen in the UK France and North America all seemed to offer monthly plans but not pay as you go.
I know there are lots of online only holiday sims. They are fantastic. Was going to use them in Canada but didn't get a chance.
Hopefully more will push into competition
You can get a vodafone PAYG esim, they just don't tell you about it. Get the PAYG SIM, register for an online account, wait a day or two for their ancient backend systems to all update, change to an esim from the account page.
Used it on my pixel 7 at Glastonbury this year
Noice. So there are likely more esims available they just are hidden
I think you can get a Lycamobile one too, but that's all I could find when I was looking a couple of months ago
