giving away Mobi365 sim card

just came back from vietnam and got a Mobi365 sim card (+841225058454) to give away.

bought it for 80,000 vnd and came with value of 160,000 vnd. valid for 1 yr from 05 dec 09.

http://www.mobifone.com.vn/web/en/products/mobi365.jsp

did not know how to check remaining value but only made about 5 outgoing local calls (total less than 10 mins) and used about 600 kb of data. outgoing local calls are about 1,080 vnd per minute.

http://www.mobifone.com.vn/web/en/products/tariff_mobi365.jsp

used it with http://content.hoiio.com and incoming calls are free. hoiio calls quality are very good and much cheaper ($0.242/min vs roaming $1.50)

self-collect at enous, bedok or novena mrt.
