Which Romania operator gives the most credit per dollar?

Orange, at about €0.47 per $1 on 30 October 2026, against €0.37 per $1 for Vodafone.

What is the time difference between the UK and Romania?

Romania (Bucharest) is 2 hours ahead of London right now. Recharges are delivered around the clock, so the time of day does not matter.

How do I enter a Romanian mobile number?

Enter it with the country code +40. A number written locally as 0712 034 567 becomes +40 712 034 567, so drop the leading 0 after the country code. Romanian mobile numbers have 9 digits after the country code. The example is a format guide, not a real number.

How do I recharge a Romanian mobile number from the UK?

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 Romania.

Can I pay with a card from the UK?

Yes. Visa, Mastercard and other major debit and credit cards issued in the UK and most other countries are accepted.

Can I recharge someone else's number in Romania?

Yes. Slashtel tops up any prepaid number in Romania, your own or a family member's. You only need the number; the person does not need an account.

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 currency do I pay in from the UK?

Prices on this page are in US dollars and include the Slashtel service fee. At checkout your card may be shown and charged in your local currency, and the exact amount is confirmed before you pay.

Is it safe to pay on Slashtel?

Yes. Payments are processed by Stripe with 3D Secure where your bank supports it, and Slashtel never sees or stores your full card details.

How long does the recharge take?

Most recharges arrive within a few minutes. If the phone is switched off, the credit lands when it next connects. You get a confirmation email with your order reference.

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.
