Are you planning on moving to the Netherlands soon and are looking for a reliable mobile service for all of your needs? Simyo is a mobile subscription service that offers tailor-made plans specifically for internationals.

Get an eSIM with Simyo 

Why choose Simyo?

Simyo is the ideal solution for all of your mobile needs, especially for expats looking for an easy and affordable option.

Here are just a few reasons why getting a mobile subscription with Simyo is worth it:

  • Highly-trusted by consumers: According to the Consumentenbond, Simyo has been named as the best mobile service provider over 30 times. They have been deemed "The Best of the Test" for the second quarter of 2024.
  • Competitive pricing: Their bundles are comprehensive and affordable - perfect for international students and expats. Their most affordable data and calling bundle costs only 7 euros per month!
  • Flexibility: At Simyo, you have the flexibility to customise your bundles every month.
  • Extra protection: Pay €0.50 per month extra and your data will stop automatically when your bundle runs out, protecting you from extra costs.
  • Fast network: Simyo uses the KPN mobile network which is the fastest network in the Netherlands.
  • Monthly plans: Are you only in the Netherlands on a short-term basis? No problem! Simyo has monthly plans that allow you to end your subscription quickly - no yearly obligations.

Digital SIM card: eSim with Simyo

At Simyo, you can opt for a digital sim card, also known as an eSim, at no extra cost. With an eSIM, you no longer need to wait for a physical SIM card to arrive in your mailbox in order to text, call or use the internet. Instead, the eSIM is programmed directly to your phone through the MySimyo app, allowing you to set everything up quickly.

All in one place

Apart from a quick set-up process, there are other benefits to owning an eSIM. Firstly, a physical sim card is easy to misplace and an eSIM isn't! Secondly, if you ever want to change your SIM card, you have to fiddle around with your phone and take your SIM card out. Finally, they are better for the planet as everything is done digitally, whereas traditional SIM cards are made of plastic.

Dual-sim

With an eSim, you can easily include more numbers in your phone and have a dual SIM. This is not as easy to do with a physical SIM.

Flexible mobile plans

Simyo allows you to combine an eSIM with a Sim Only or phone plan as well as with a prepaid plan - giving you lots of different options to choose from!

Registering with Simyo

Simyo has an easy and straightforward registration process for all of their customers. All you have to do is go to the Simyo website and choose between a SIM-Only or prepaid plan. If you choose the SIM-Only plan, you will then choose:

  • How many GBs of internet you want per month
  • How many minutes of calling you want per month
  • The duration of your subscription period (one year, two years or on a terminable monthly basis).

What do you need to register?

In order to register with Simyo, you must provide a Dutch address and a Dutch bank account. There is the possibility of changing your bank account to an international one later on, if you provide them with a copy of your ID and bank card. However, you still need to have a Dutch address.

Simyo-4G network (KPN)

KPN is the fastest and most reliable mobile network in the Netherlands, offering the best nationwide coverage and the highest upload and download speeds. By choosing a mobile bundle or subscription with Simyo, you get super fast internet and crystal clear videos without buffering or lagging. Watch series, download films and play games with ease with a Simyo mobile plan.

Do you already have KPN internet and TV at home? Then, you can also receive extra GB data in your monthly data plan from Simyo.
