topping...

(since I still have not gotten around to listing this on eBay... and thus the phone is still available if you want me to "sell it forward" to you...)

correct me if i am wrong, ( lately i have been REALLY so.. frequently) but the number does not expire if you keep updatng minutes.. correct?
if you keep adding money to the pre-paid card.. it will remain valid, thus not expiring...or not?

i think it only expires march 20th if you leave it idle.

Well, yes, a Mobicarte is a prepaid SIM. And if more money is added to it, the number will not expire on March 20. But I have no way to add more money to it.

i was just mentioning that so the possible purchaser wouldnīt think it would only be valid until that date..if he were able to "put more money" on the card.

Okay, so I was really lazy - - and never did list this on eBay.

Now, it can be yours for a song.

Hello Rex,
We DH and I are going to Paris for the first time from Feb 28 - Mar 2.
We'll be staying in a rental apartment with a telephone. However, I'm addicted to my cell phone and wonder if it would be worthwhle to puchase yours. Please give me a rate in US Dollars.
Many thanks,
Laurie
