Airtime Note

All standard plans operate in the following way: The minutes purchased are available for use up to the end of the expiry. If a further standard plan is purchased the expiry duration and minutes are added to that of the original purchase. i.e No minutes are lost provided another plan is added prior to the expiry.

Plans marked * are non-standard plans - Topping up with this voucher will cause all existing minutes and expiration period to be lost. Once a SIM is activated/ topped up with a non-rechargeable voucher it can't be topped up again without losing any existing minutes and expiration period.
