Yes, most sims have a "connect by date" printed on the packaging!

What's the highest offer so far, as I haven't got an eBay log in?

My gold number was about £25 from O2 - and ends 040506, so quite nice and memorable.

When Family Mobile (IKEA) started up, you could have up to 5 SIM cards at £10 each, and they had a system whereby you could choose your own number if available.

I was able to obtain

xxxxxx45678 twice

xxxxxx23456 once

xxxxxx67890 once

After transferring all balances to one main FM number, I have since transferred two to GiffGaff and one to Orange with PAC's, my Orange is still on Original PAYG, so I get 5 free texts a day till 2016.
(The year, not the time !)

I just use them once every 80 days to keep them current.
