The SIM (and number) gets killed off. Yes, you could recharge and keep it going, but it'd be at whatever the minimum Telstra recharge cost…

Yes. Officially only for seven days (as per the warning message), but usually six months in practice.

No, but see my other post about activating a $2 Lebara SIM.

I was having a quiet Saturday, so I thought I'd give this deal a go, using an old Boost number that hadn't yet expired, and opting for an…

When it's important, I avoid porting outside of the officially supported porting hours. eg; I avoid Sundays.

Unless it's changed quite recently, a $2 Telstra SIM will let you port from Boost to Telstra and back to Boost without further outlay. See…

Yeah, I'm just going to spin it up as a new number and run it as SIM2 in my dual-SIM phone.

OK, I'll bite, just to remind myself how, um, er.... "different" Lyca can be.

I saw it referred to as being "SIM polyamorous" in another deal.

Your lucky day! :)
