Questions, answered

How do I enter a German mobile number?

Enter it with the country code +49. A number written locally as 01512 3456789 becomes +49 1512 3456789, so drop the leading 0 after the country code. German mobile numbers have 11 digits after the country code. The example is a format guide, not a real number.

How do I recharge a German mobile number from abroad?

Enter the number with the country code, pick a plan and pay by card. The operator is detected automatically and the credit goes straight to the phone. You do not need an account or a bank account in Germany.

Which Germany operators can I top up?

What if I enter the wrong number?

Recharges are delivered instantly and cannot be reversed once they reach a valid number, so check the number before you pay. If the operator rejects the number, Slashtel resends or refunds you in full.

What happens if the recharge fails?

If the operator rejects the recharge, we resend it. If it still can't be delivered, write to esim@slashtel.com or message us on WhatsApp with your order reference and we'll sort it out.
