When does my PlanetSim expire?

Your PlanetSim number has no expiration date and its credit doesn’t expire, assuming you complete a call once a year.

The only obligation a PlanetSim user has, is to adhere to our correct use policy, which dictates that a top-up of thirty euros (30€) must be made annually. The top-up is to be performed by the 31st of January each year. Non-compliance with the aforementioned directive will lead to the temporary block of your PlanetSim number. 

In the case of your PlanetSim card being blocked, the sim card ceases to function. Any credit left in the card remains intact for the period the block lasts.

When the top-up of thirty euros (30€) is performed, the PlanetSim number is returned to its normal state.
