Should be able to buy a P&G sim anywhere.
Tesco will be Tesco Mobile, I'm on that and it seems fine.
You can get a top-up card (top-up in Tesco only) or pay through the phone.
If either method is convenient, I'd go for it.

Just re-read your question.
The answer is yes.

I'd look at your settings then as the website is fine :thumbup:
Malicious sites were blocked on school computers and I remember using that site over 20 years ago in school :hehe:

Not really a minefield, the first photo on the left had a big button phone.
Pay as you go sims are hardly a minefield either.
If you.dont want replies on a public forum don't post :thumbup:

It is up to you how you take my post.
I know who the phone is for, and I know loads about your mum.
I was merely pointing out how simple it is to get this information off Google, like I said the first image that comes up shows a phone with big buttons then plenty of pay as you go sim options below and links to Vodafone elderly people etc.
The fact you've decided to take my post the way you have is on you :thumbup:

No , that post was your MO , it's what you like and you do this with other posters too
You have done it before on these sort of threads , there is no other way to take it , you are trolling , which as you have told me before is what you enjoy doing .
I think you should just act like an adult and just ignore such threads , unless you are being helpful . I know how to use Google but I prefer to throw certain things out there rather than trawl through the Internet, loads of folks on here are more tech staff than I ever want to be or even are interested in being . New sound system ? Tablet ? I am following what , in general are decent people are advising me . Obviously if I had an issue with nuclear physics I would expect you to chip in .

Spoil your own thread.
I posted a link to Google, which is where people go to find information.
I didn't read past the first sentence as you've gotten personal for no reason.
There are plenty of ways I could have been a dick in replying to this thread but because you are the sensitive type I refrained and went with the simple "just Google it" approach.

You are spoiling it yourself, you took issue with the reply because of who posted it, then you've assumed why the link was posted and decided to carry on going after I've tried to let it flow over my head, Ive not risen to the personal abuse aimed at me in one of your long winded posts etc.
Google is your friend.
Your friends in your contact list are your helpful friends etc etc.

Yeah whatever
This is the deal.......anytime anyone asks for advice on here ......I don't expect expect you to be suggesting Google as you always do
Otherwise you are a hypocrite and full of it and cannot cry wolf when people say thanks, but no thanks
Every time you see a post from me asking for advice.......keep out of it unless you can help.....if you say just goggle it you will just be trolling for a reaction and of course from me you will get one
So don't do it
It's no more difficult than that . You do not need to answer this post , it's perfectly clear and simple .
I do not require a reply .

Suggesting Google is helping.
The link even typed out your search and brought it up on your page for you.
I will continue to post wherever I feel like, you want to ask yourself why you are getting so worked up about a link to let me.google that for you, clearly I'm not the issue here, something is bothering you.
Maybe you shouldn't post online when in such a heightened emotional state. You may not like all of the replies you get on a public forum.
I once reacted like this on reddit and had my arse handed to me for posting a post asking for help then dismissing answers I didn't agree with.
I wish I hadn't deleted my account, I could show you more than one of a few similar incidents on reddit, the Internet is free speech is it not?
You're better off ignoring replies you don't like than dictating to others how to behave on your posts, your reaction has caused this, you have wound yourself up. I have not.
