Most Mobile sim cards on a pay monthly plan, including those issued by virgin normally have an expiry date of 90 days from the day of purchase in which they must be activated or will simply not work. Depending on the particular mobile handset you have, it is relatively straight forward to have your device unlocked. As long as your sim has been activated within the 90 day window, then you should be absolutely fine.

Hope this helps,
Thanks
