Correct. I know there are lots of places (vending machines, SimLocal, etc.) that you can buy a SIM with credit on it, but it costs a good bit more than the value of the SIM plus that credit. I was just looking for clarification that W.H. Smith didn't rip you off like that. This is definitely good info to have - the last time I was there (which, admittedly, was a few years ago) I looked for SIMs in the W.H. Smith at LHR, and they didn't have them. Glad to know they've got them, and they're not overpriced - buying them there is a little more convenient for me than waiting until I get into the city.
