Hi @Merone sims are sold in many locations in the UK, supermarkets, newsagents etc. Use the link below to find a Vodafone store, I would advise going to one of them so they can explain the best way for you to proceed. Don't forget to make sure your phone is network unlocked to allow a different sim to be used.

Enjoy your visit to the UK. :Smiling:

 

Seems my first reply to you this morning has vanished. No idea what happened there:)

 

This link will help you to find a Vodafone High street Store.

As your Vodafone network and the UK Vodafone network are not linked you'd need to ensure your device will accept a Uk Vodafone network sim card. Your own network customer service or help pages should advise. 

 

Vodafone UK has two payg options. Freebies and Big Value Bundle. The shop will advise the best for your usage needs.

Hi @Merone

 

For your visit to the UK, if you need to call home to Australia, it would save you a lot of money to opt into Vodafone International, still free to add from PAYG.

If you are going to opt into a Big Value Bundle for your UK needs, you will need additional credit for your calling home.  If you do not want to choose a Big Value, the standard charges for PAYG can be found below.

Thanks very much Ann
