Pre Pay SIM Renewal
The SIM card will remain active (from the first call) for an inital period of 30 days. In order to extend this validity period credit can be purchased to topup the minutes and the validity period of the SIM. How much the validity period is extended depends on how many units you purchase.
If you allow your credit to expire the SIM card goes into a 'grace' period which last 2 months, you will loose any credit that was on the SIM but you will be able to receive incoming calls. If you topup during this period the SIM will be fully re-activated.
When the grace period is over the SIM goes into a reactivation period, no incoming or outgoing calls, service effectively suspended only 150 (thuraya top up number) allowed. A fee of 5 units is required and will be deducted from value of scratch cards to re-activate (un-suspend) the service.
