Your account will go through the Prepaid Subscriber Life Cycle that consists of 4 different states:
State 1: Active – Your account becomes active once you have been fully registered as a subscriber followed by your first call using your preinstalled credit given by Lyca Mobile. You must thereafter recharge/top up your account to keep it active. The number of days your account remains active is dependent on the value of the top-up purchased. Each top-up denomination has a defined number of days before the top-up voucher expires.
State 2: Inactive – Your account becomes inactive when you have utilized all the credit added to your account/the entire value of your top-up. In this state, you can receive calls or SMS (text messages) but you cannot use a paid Service. You can only call emergency numbers, toll free numbers and Customer Care as well as your fast recharge number to top up your account.
