Piranha Mobile Sim Card

[VladS]

The UK numbering range used by Piranha is assigned to Telecom North America (Telna). Does anyone know what the relationship is between Piranha and Telna?

Do they share the same platform and do they experience similar reliability issues as Telna did (or still does)?!

Hi I do not know all the answers to your questions, but I have used Piranha for around 4/5 months now and I have had no major issues with service on GSM or VoIP. I did try XxSim on my last trip, but that's another story.

It has an expiration of 420 DAYS!

And somehow a minimum balance of £1.00 is involved also.

They answered my question:

What is the 'minimum threshold' mentioned in section 15.2 of your T & C?
£1.00 after 420 days of non-use.

They answered my question:

Sir, When posting information, please insure that you read the full terms and conditions and post the correct information, this is for the benefit of all.
The Piranha Sim only expires after 420 days of non use and only after the customer has been given 14 days written notice, if one call or SMS is made during this time the 420 day cycle starts again. Piranha expect the customer to maintain a balance of no less than £1.00 at all times. The information posted would suggest the card expires after 420 days regardless of usage.

Uh, no.

What part of

after 420 days of non-use.

to reiterate your fist post "Has anyone noticed"

"It has an expiration of 420 DAYS!"

you do not mentioned the fact that if the card is used once within this time the 420 day cycle starts again and therefore your post could easily be misinterpreted as expiry after 420 days, regardless of use.

Seemed perfectly clear to me. The "..420 DAYS!" thing seems like a "Wow!" to me. The rest of the post made it perfectly clear that it was 420 days without being used.
