Pre-paid 3G in the UK

Hello, I am visiting the UK soon and am wondering if the iPad 3G prepaid SIM cards work with iPhone.


I am not taking this for granted because iPad 3G prepaid SIM cards in Australia cannot be used in iPhones.


Also, does anyone know which carrier is the best in UK? I will mainly be in London, Oxford and Cambridge.


Thanks.

Generally ,certainly in UK the iPad sim is a data sim and will not give you voice


You can purchase data iPad microsims payg freely as you can iPhone voice / data payg

reference the carrier difficult as they all have their weak areas

I would look at their websites for "claimed" coverage


Personally I would stick to O2 ,Vodafone or 3 (which I use for data )
