Rose Ann Did you use the same login information as last year? You have to use the same phone number/e-mail address, otherwise your old account won't be able to get located.
Bastian linked you this page: https://together.bunq.com/d/24392 It states that "Your cards get reactivated automatically." (one of your questions) and "You get the same plan that you had before." (but of course you can always change plans at bunq at any point in time). One year shouldn't be an issue, that's not so long.
If it doesn't work as expected for you, then bunq support can help you.
