If you do not recharge your account within 3 months after the expiration of the last top up card (FLEXcard) you loaded, your prepaid Jamaica SIM card will only receive calls. In order to place calls, you will need to top-up your Jamaica service. If you do not recharge for an additional 30 days, your Jamaica SIM card will automatically be terminated which means you will need to purchase another SIM card and a new number will be provisioned.
