Does anyone know if the $5 credit on a SIM that you get when you buy a SO phone expires? And for that matter, does the SIM itself ever expire? I'm just trying to figure out if I have an unactivated SIM, does the credit and SIM "last forever" (well, at least until I activate it) or does SO eventually start to disable/cancel the credit on non-activated SIMs?

Thx.

As far as I know, the clock only starts ticking when the SIM is activated. It might be different though because they know when the SIM was sold. A quick call to SpeakOut would be good just to make sure though.

I called and according to the woman I talked to, there is no expiry until the SIM is activated.
