Pay as you go sims are the least restrictive option for users in payment terms, as there is no expectation at all to top up every 30 days. Lets look at the packages on offer:

Orange Free Sim Cards

Orange offer four key categories to their pay as you talk offering – Dolphin, Canary, Racoon and Camel.

Dolphin is targeted at text users - with bonus texts available.

Canary is ideal for off peak phone calls (evenings and weekends).

Racoon is the option for on and off peak (all day) calls.

Camel provides cheaper international call and text rates.

It’s also worth considering sim only packages if you are a regular phone user. Although it does still technically mean signing up for a contract, they can usually be ended after 30 days, and a month can cost as little as a tenner. In other words, if you top up by ten pounds or more a month this is likely to be the right option for you. All the big mobile networks now offer something of this nature, and there’s plenty of information available on the web – a useful comparision table is available at simcard.org.uk.
