hiya
does anyone know how long it is before they cut your turkish sim off when you havent used it for a while
i was in alanya in october and normally we go in march/ april as well but due to high flight prices we havent been able to go this time
so was wondering if my turkish sim will still work in july when i come to icmeler
or will i have to buy another one
i remember someone saying something to me about 6 months ?

Hi Katie,
I dont think your sim will work as it will probably be blocked. I bought a sim in may last year and used it again in the june but when my brother took my phone with him in july it was blocked. In the sept i had to go to turkcell shop in marmaris to get my phone registered and got a new sim card. It took a couple of days before i could use it though. When i go back in june i have to go back to shop as i haven't been back to icmeler since and like our sims if you dont use them they can be blocked.
Hope this helps you.

don't quote me but.... here's how my turkish sim works - up to 3 months it will still work with any credit you have left on it. Between 3-6 months, you need to add credit to reactivate it. After 6 months - you will lose the number.

yeah, Turkcell - you can't really go wrong and all the little markets sell them.
