Hi, again.

"SIM Karte ist gültig" bis DD/MM/YYYY means that your SIM card (and the loaded balance) is valid until DD/MM/YYYY. This date is of course flexible and can be pushed ahead by a new top-up. I mentioned a shorter time in the article that is taken from their T&Cs. But as this is a personified info given in your account (and as far as I remember even when you check credit by USSD code too), you can pretty much rely on it.

Of course you can extend validity. But to keep the SIM and your account alive, you should do this by the given date. A new top up will give you another 1/2-1 year validity from this moment on. This date is clearly shown too after recharging. With German SIM cards, it's only the date of the top-up that counts, not the amount - so you can top up minimum to keep it alive. What 2016 and later are concerned, we are hoping that more choices for affordable roaming within Europe will be available.
