Hey All,
I have a T-Mobile V300 that will be in London with me for nearly 8 weeks. Anyone have any recommendations for where to get a SIM card? Telestial has one for $40.00 with 5 pounds of air time. Anyone have any experience with them or anyone else?
Should I keep buying cards to fill the phone up, or should I just register my credit card and go from there?
Any thoughts? Ideas?
Thanks in advance!

So, Virgin Mobile in the UK emailed me back, but neglected to tell me where I can buy their SIM cards. Anyone have any reputable ideas other than Telestial?

Ah, thank you, I appreciate it.
Though I meant buying it in advance, here in the U.S.

Buying a SIM card in advance is really unnecessary. When I came to Belfast last year I simply went to the Virgin Mobile store in Gatwick Airport between flights, paid 10 pounds for a SIM card (which included 5 pounds airtime), put it in my phone and immediately called my ride in Belfast to let them know I was on time. Simple as that. Be sure your phone is SIM-unlocked. Of course Virgin Mobile is not the only prepaid service provider that one can find with as much ease. However it is probably the best in that its call rates and text message rates are very competitive (especially between Virgin Mobile users) and, a little something that people often don't think of but really adds up, calling one's voicemail is FREE unlike other providers like O2 and Orange. Don't buy a SIM card from Telestial.com for $40 when you can get one for 5 pounds.
