Just tried it. Won't work in Canada. So I assume it hasn't been activated which is good as I won't be in Europe for another few months. Would it be a problem if I first activate it in the NL (layover in AMS) before I use it in Austria, Italy and France?
I also plan on being in France for an extended period. Will the French number expire after 30 days and if so, do I just renew it or get a new one?
