10 GBP for a phone plan is insanely low. I don't know how it is in Europe, but in the US it's definitely nowhere as cheap, which is the comment the person above was making. I too was in California, and I pay 40USD for everything + 2GB of data. In Quebec, I'm not sure if I got a special deal, but I got 55CAD for 9GB of data, which with conversion ratio is roughly 40USD.
That's the thing: A luxury plan in Canada is a basic plan overseas.
When I visit France and buy a 10 EUR plan that's "Good for a Canadian" for my 1-2 week stay from a random provider, people look at me funny because the brand is associated with the unemployed and refugees.

Come on. There is no provider associated with the unemployed and refugees in France. 10€ pre-paid should get you unlimited call and texts and something like 1Go of data and no one will bat an eye.
Plans are actually quite cheap too. I pay 15€ for unlimited everything and you can get as low as 2€ for 2h of call, unlimited texts and 50Mo of data.
