You must use a charged service (such as making a call, or sending a text message), or recharge within any six (6) month period, otherwise your remaining credit will expire. If you do not purchase additional credit at the time of purchase or recharge within one (1) month of the initial use of the service, any remaining initial included credit balance will expire (this is the credit balance that comes included with the SIM card excluding promotions that include more than $20 call credit).

The full credit balance (including any remaining initial included call credit) will be automatically re-instated if you recharge your account within fifteen (15) months of last use, or purchase a new SIM card from Customer Service after fifteen (15) months.

You can ensure that you retain your US number indefinitely by paying 50c per month. Simply visit www.rechargeminutes.com, click on the 'Get US number' menu option, enter your number and PIN, and click on the 'Keep Number' button (in the Account status section).
