Welcome back!!!! We're Brits from Rainton in North Yorkshire. We too have UK cell phones and we don't dare use them here in USA. What we did several years ago was to take our phones to T-Mobile for a USA SIM Card. This allowed us to use a pay-as-you-go account that suited our needs. We don't do any texting or use the internet on it so we are able to use the service for little or no money. However, since that time, things have changed with Pay-as-you-go services. They have become more expensive and certainly more involved and are available from all phone carriers.
I would suggest going to a Walmart type local phone and keeping your UK phone for use only in the UK. The walmart phones are inexpensive and they have phones to fit whatever your needs might be. Give them a shot....
