As the saying goes: Good times don’t last forever, and beautiful flowers don’t bloom forever…
In China, Lebara's cost-effective international roaming mobile phone card is no longer cost-effective.
If you need a UK phone card to receive text messages, you might want to consider giffgaff.
0 monthly rent, wifi calling, and text message protection every 6 months, it is a good choice.
This is my invitation link. Activate the card and you will get £10 of phone credit, which can be used to receive text messages until the end of time.

Those who need esim can apply directly on the giffgaff app, but there is a high probability that there will be no call credit bonus.
