With Virgin mobile, some people have had problems getting SMS verification texts from banks, Paypal etc. Up to 4 Sims if you have some other Virgin offering for 3+ months, otherwise 2 Sims.

Sometimes the 4 months free has a short offer so why take the chance... hope this helps 🙂

So you point doesn't make sense like changing from the €10 to the €5 deal didn't make sense. If you move during a month you'll be in credit and will be given a refund for unused days. Have moved many times during cycles and get the credit back into my account.
