Frequently Asked Questions

A PIN code is a 4 digit password given to the SIM card. If it is entered 3 times incorrectly in a row, your SIM card will be blocked. This prevents the unauthorized usage of your SIM card and phone. After entering it for the first time, you may change the default PIN code from your phone’s menu.

A PUK code is a 8 digit password that will be used to unlock your SIM card, if the PIN number is entered 3 times incorrectly in a row. If the PUK number is entered incorrectly 10 times in a row, your SIM card will become permanently unusable.

You can use your SIM card for 6 months (180 days) beginning from the activation date. In order to use your SIM card constantly active, you need to load cash.

After loading cash to your SIM card, you may place and receive calls, send and receive SMS or use any other available services for 90 days. Within this period if you do not load cash to your card again, your 90 day semi-active period will start – even if you have cash left at the end of the period.

Within this period, even if you have cash in your card, you can not place calls or send SMS, but you can receive calls and messages. If you do not load cash to your card until the end of this 90 day semi-active period, your SIM card and phone number will be permanently cancelled.
