If the SIM card balance expires, the SIM will expire and be removed from the account after 7 days, unless there is a data package currently active on the SIM (not a future activation).

So, to keep the SIM active you need to either keep a balance on the SIM or an active data package. 

NOTE: If there is balance on the SIM card, but no data is used for 15 consecutive days, the SIM card will be blocked/suspended. To unblock the SIM card, simply go to your account portal and in the "My SIM cards" tab, click on "Unblock" on the "SIM Type" line.
