Sim Cards That Offer Free Incoming Calls

Prepaid SIM cards allow you to receive incoming messages for free.


A SIM (subscriber identity module) card is a type of memory chip used in certain portable devices, including cell phones and smart phones. These cards allow you to retain the information saved on your mobile device even if you switch phones. Simply remove the SIM card from one phone and put it in another. Some SIM cards allow you to receive free incoming calls, which is especially useful if you are planning to travel in other countries.


Passport Lite


The Passport US Lite SIM Card is for travelers who don't plan to make many outgoing calls while in other countries. This card comes with $5 of airtime credit, and you can add more. You will receive both a U.S. and UK phone number, and you can receive incoming calls on both numbers for free. Other features include free customer service, text messages and voice mail, and there are no connection fees. You can view your receipts and call logs online. As of 2010, this SIM card costs $5.
