Telcel costs 600 pesos or $50 a year to keep active, has cheaper data in Mexico, and (the most important point for me) it has a local number that people locally can call. I forward US/UK numbers to my Mexico mobile for much less than Go Phone's incoming charge.
Here's a question about AT&T Go: My local store here in Chicago says they will give me the SIM along with however much money I put on it.

Let's say I put $15 on and use $14 while I'm in Mexico in December.

I return and after $0 days the GO phone is inactive.

Can I reactivate it in a few months simply by putting more money on? Or do I have to go into the store and get another free SIM?

Also, the people at the store say that I can't top up a card online whilst in Mexico. That has to be wrong. Right?
