May I know if the SIM card can be reactivated after expiry date?

Once expired without top up to extend, I don't think you can reactivate.

Ok... Thought I could simply buy the top up card and re-use the SIM card when I return to HK to shop...

some experiences to share... I was at Macau and Hong Kong recently, initially I thought I will just activate my m1 data roaming $15/day service. OMG, it sucks big time especially in Macau... Partnering network Smartone, I couldn't get data connection most of the time... even sms/phone call also experienced problems... In the end, I spent HKD 100 to get local data for 24hrs service...

In Hong Kong, I got CSL simcard for HKD 88 and it was damn good. Problem is that it's not easy to find. A lot of 7-11 don't carry CSL. I went around 5shops then I found.

Hi people. I am going to HK to study for 5months.

Which sim card would you recommend? Preferably comes with data.

Upon arrival, go UP to departure hall. It is at the middle of the departure hall, near to the gates.
