BT provides phone contract (pay monthly) plans which have a 24 month lock in period, and SIM only plans. You can get SIM only plans with a 12 month lock in period or a family SIM which also has a lock in period of 12 months.

BT’s mobile plans range in terms of contract length, price and package inclusion. You can have up to 5 BT SIMs in your family SIM plan and the more SIMs you add to the plan the more money you save. If you want to cancel your mobile plan before the end of the contract a charge will apply per month. This charge depends on the type of plan you have, for more information visit the BT website.
