Replacing the Koodo SIM card for a month

Question

My daughter is in Spain for a month for an exchange, and her host got her a local SIM card to use while she was there. It was cheap and works great (8 euros for 22 GB or something).

My concern is she reported that when she started up the phone with the new temporary SIM, she received a SMS from… Koodo? (I’m not sure), saying that (and I’m paraphrasing here) after 29 more days her current phone number with Koodo would be lost.

Does this make sense? If you swap out the Koodo SIM for a month, do you lose the Koodo phone number or is there some other problem with using a local SIM card while traveling for an extended time? Easy Roam is crazy expensive compared to local European plans.

You don't lose your number :)Just take out Koodo SIM and keep it at safe place until she comes back. Then she can use Koodo SIM back on and continue to use the service.

To add to what Mayumi said: as long as the Koodo bills are paid, the number would never be lost even if she removed the SIM card for good. Happy travels 😀
