Getting a mobile phone in England

Excerpt:

The minus in buying the SIM card while in GB is you don't know the number that will be assigned to you, so your friends will not be able to call you. I think a better idea is to buy a global SIM card, which will serve you in UK and other countries. Some of them has no expiration at all, so it is yours for life. I know [...] a good service with cheap price, and they have a branch in Australia. You might want to consider it.

Well found, and what a load of absolute bollocks that advice is

As we know, the UK has at least half a dozen brands with cheap calls to Australia and USA and plenty of other countries, starting at 3 and 4 pence a minute., so someone moving here for some time should look for those rather than a global SIM

I'd still been wondering why the OP had asked the question from the perspective of someone travelling from Australia, yet has declared as coming from America. Now I wonder if the criticism of a prominent Australian provider isn't much of a coincidence
