Since last year, the ORANGE SIM card has remained. Tell me, a year later, she will be fury? There are megabytes left on it or can I somehow replenish the account? Or is it better to buy a new one?

If the SIM card from ORANGE is not replenished, it will be blocked after 3 months. You can unlock it at official ORANGE sales points, but they don't want to do it. I've been traveling with the same Simka for 3 years now. The first two times they unlocked without any problems. The last time, in December, at a point on Il Mercato, they said that it was no longer possible, but then they called the cost - $ 15, while the cost of a new SIM card is from $ 7 to $ 10. I had to refuse their offer. The next day, this SIM card was unlocked at the Old Market (a point next to the Reichen store), but they charged $ 2 for this + the cost of a monthly package of $ 4.

No, it won't work. If you bought at the airport, then they register there for a passport and the validity period is a month. Actually, you can check on the application for Android Anna vadafon, a very convenient application, I replenished the card through it when I sat in Sharm for a long time last year and you can track traffic consumption, you can buy an additional package, for example, a free you tube. One detail, when replenishing the card, not all the money is counted, they have a brutal commission there, but the merchants are still the same, but they cling to their percentage and it turns out even more expensive. I paid with a private card

Fancase, this is if you only took the Internet package. I bought it together with a telephone connection and on Ana vadofon you can see which package you are subscribed to and the expiration date of the package, as well as how much flexses are left, this is their complex unit in the case of a package with telephone connection. After I used up my flexses, the Internet and the phone disappeared, but having replenished the additional package only for the Internet, I received Internet on the card that was, the card was live. The young lady in the old layout offered to buy a new card, arguing that this one would no longer work, but the kid in the store replenished our card through his account on ana vadofon and the Internet appeared, but stuck his 3 bucks. I then figured out how to do it myself

Oh, sorry, I didn’t notice that we were talking about Orange, but I think that there is the same system there

Shev37, Quite right, the topikstarter asks about ORANGE, not Vodafone or Salad. I described my experience of 3 years of operation of one SIM card from ORANGE in Egypt. An app for ORANGE also exists called My Orange. Buying a recharge scratch card at official ORANGE points of sale is free of charge if you buy in eg. pounds.

I would buy a new one and not bother looking for official points - it is not known whether there are such near your hotel

It's better to buy a new one. But you can take it, just in case
аватар la23man231
Thank you all! I'll buy a new one and won't bother. Thanks again to everyone for your generosity!
