Have just setup a new telecom prepaid microsim on an ipad. It automatically comes with $29.95 of credit on it. However there is conflicting information around on how long this credit will last for for it expires. Apparently credit lasts for 12 months, however I saw someone else saying that the initial credit you get expires after month. There is no information on the data usage page, as to how long it will last for or when it expires. Nor is there any information with the card.
Also how is the best way to check your prepaid balance on it, and then to top it up? They do have a website m.telecom.co.nz/microsim , but I assume this will cost you data to access it. Or is that data usage website page exempt of charges.
Thanks
