£10 is the minimum top-up available on Three PAYG, you're not obliged
to top up every month though.
If you go transfer your existing mobile number to a new Three SIM card
you qualify for £10 of FREE CREDIT!!
(That free £10 credit must be used within the first month it's offered
by the way - it can be spent on anything - a £5 Internet Monthly
bundle for example).

According to
http://www.virginmobile.com/vm/gener...f.howdoi.sm131
and
http://www.virginmobile.com/vm/gener...ges.shop.sm142
it's still 0.5p/Kbyte (£5.12/Mbyte).
I see they've sneaked the cross-net rate up from 35p/min to 40p/min, and
cross-net SMS from 10p to 12p per text. I don't recall getting any
notification of that in any recent bill (I'm on PAYG by Direct Debit).

connected to my computer via bluetooth, or the usb cable, and
unlimited internet for £5 a week using orange world. some months I
download over 10 gig and had no probs. and u get free texts depending
what u top up with.
