All about topping up

ATTENTION! TOPPING UP VIA 1955 OR BY USING CODE *222* IS NO LONGER POSSIBLE! 

First a little info...

To top up, you need a prepaid card.

  • If you don't have a prepaid card yet, you can buy one via the website!
  • When you receive a new prepaid card, you need to activate it before you top up.
