HOW CAN I JOIN VIRGIN MOBILE?
500 Free minutes for your Family
Get your family to join Virgin Mobile and you all get 500 extra minutes / texts, completely free, every month.
Welcome to Virgin Mobile!
Signing up to Virgin Mobile is easy. We’ll even deliver and activate your SIM at your home or work.
Just be sure to ask the driver to wait as you’ll need them to activate your extra SIMs.
Once signed up, you simply need to add another SIM to your account using the app to get your free minutes.
Your driver can assist you with the activation of your added SIMs.
When you add more SIMs to your account, the primary SIM as well as all additional SIMs will receive 500 mins. The primary SIM will receive free 500 mins per month upon the successful renewal of the plan. Each additional SIM will receive free 500 mins immediately after the SIM is activated.
Also find out how to share data from Virgin Mobile app
Here are the important details:
- Your additional SIMs must be added under one Emirates ID (the 'parent' account).
- This parent account can track the usage and set a spending limit for each SIM.
- The additional SIMs can still use the Virgin Mobile app, have their own number & unique plan.
- Unused minutes will lapse at the end of every month.
- Minutes cannot be shared or transferred among members of the family account.
- If the primary account user cancels or removes his/her credit card from the family account, the benefit will lapse for all users of the family account.
- If the primary account user’s Emirates ID expires, the benefit will lapse for all users of the family account.
- Any user included within the account will be given 6 days of grace period after the renewal date. After 6 days, if the renewal does not take place, the benefit will lapse for that user.
- To receive the 500 minutes, each number will need to be active and have a plan worth over AED79p/m

Got questions?
Can I sign up to a 6 or 12-month plan on my additional SIM?
Of course. Choose a plan you like on your additional SIM and pay upfront to save 30% off the total price with a 6-months plan, or save 50% with a yearly plan.

When do I get my free 500 minutes?
You’ll receive your 500 free minutes the moment an additional SIM is successfully activated. Thereafter, all SIMs under your account will receive their 500 minutes every monthly renewal.

Can I merge multiple accounts into one and still get the free minutes?
Yes! You can merge accounts registered under the same EID. Doing so qualifies all merged accounts for their free 500 minutes. Unfortunately, you can’t merge accounts from different EIDs.
