^Your phone will prompt you for a PIN code which can be found under a black tab of the welcome letter where your SIM card is also attached.

Adding Talk Time

Your SIM card will include an initial airtime credit to start you off, however to credit your Czech Republic SIM card with additional airtime you will need to purchase Go recharge cards. These airtime vouchers may be purchased in 300, 500, 1000, and 5000 CZK denominations at most convenience stores, tabac shops and petrol stations throughout the Czech Republic.

Go voucher codes are available at face value, so a 300 CZK airtime voucher will cost you 300 CZK and subsequently will credit your Czech SIM card for 300 CZK.

To charge the Czech SIM chip with an airtime voucher simply:

• Scratch off the protective layer to reveal your recharge voucher code
• Dial *88 from your own mobile phone
• Select Option 1
• When prompted enter the 14-digit code and press # to confirm
• Confirm again with the # key

Alternatively you can enter *102*(14-digit recharge voucher code)# from your Czech Republic cellular phone to receive your call credit.

REMEMBER: Do NOT purchase another Czech Republic SIM card when your airtime credit is depleted! You only need a recharge voucher!
