I think it is 60 days before you lose your number, and the sim is deactivated. Don;t quote me on that. I only let it lapse for 3 weeks. However there is no gain, because you still get charged the system access fee even for the time inactive when you put money in.

If you don't refill your account, SpeakOut can and will deactivate the account, and deactivate the sim card, rendering it useless.

Hi, I have just a couple of cents remaining on my Speakout account which expire in 2011. But as far as I know speakout charges the 911 fee($0.99 earlier and now $1.25) every month to maintain the account.
But I was planning on not using the 7-11 service for 3-4 months in between and hence thinking of not renewing the balance now.

1. What happens if I don't refill my account?
2. How is the 911 fee applied/stored on my account?
3. Does the 911 fee gets accumulated as overdue on my account and comes off all together whenever I refill my account?
4. Can I put hold on my account to avoid the 911 fee being accumulated as over due?

Please explain..:???:

Thanks in advance..
