Have you considered speaking to your provider in Australia to use their autoroaming facilities, which are available on prepaid phones.

Wow I didnt know Tesco did phones now too. Sound like a great deal.
We did some research for DS who recently flew back and got him a nice nokia with camera PAYG from phones 4 u. The total was 29.00gbp and some change and this included 10.00 gbp of airtime. His tarrif is not the best but it's mostly for incoming calls as he tends to text us or call us and we don't answer and just call him back right away to save his credit. |

Try this company. You'll need your own unlocked phone. All calls within the UK are 10 P per minute. Intl. calls 4 P per minute.

I'm in the UK at the moment, and using my South African phone with a local SIM. Just check that your phone isn't locked, and choose a network that works well wherever you're going to be. I think most of them are OK in metropolitan areas, but my wife lives in SW Scotland and the only networks that have good signal strength are O2 and Vodafone. The rest are hopeless.
