But...

- Get to keep my phone number
- Get to receive incoming texts without having to swap my SIM card
- Simple Mobile won't sell over web to a non-US address so need to go through a third-party eg Mr Simcard who add their own markup OR find a retail store (of which there were none where I was going)
- And for a 7-day trip GBP 35 = USD 57 so sometimes not worth the hassle...
