Furthermore, many of the regions Onesimcard provides free service in aren't even in the Airbaltic rates list.

Of course, most of these regions are considered overseas territories of some countries, but many companies still charge them differently.

The list below of 20 + 134 = 154 which equals the number of free regions served by Onesimcard could have us think that they are considering these regions as parts of other countires.

The question is, does Airbaltic offer service in these regions or not? And are these regions free (as with Onesimcard)?

I have sent them an email to inquire about this. We'll see.

from airbalticcard website for credit expiry:

What are the expiration terms of airBalticcard mobile and my balance?
There are no expiration terms imposed. The card is blocked if 2 years pass without activity on the card (phone call, SMS, credit refill). Left-over balance is returned at the customer's request within 2 years of the last activity from the card (call, SMS, balance refill) in accordance with the "General Terms and conditions".
