KPN Sim Kaputt??

I know this is really Off Topic but I'm hoping one of you Dutchies can help me.

My dutch KPN Prepay has gone kaputt after 10 years use and I cannot buy another from the UK.

I only use it whilst in Holland.
Do you guys have an old Prepay lying around I could buy please, hopefully with approx 10euros credit?
I only use it for SMS so don't need anything fancy.

I'm really going to miss using the dutch network it is very handy + cheap.

Cheers.

Hi Narpy,

no I don't have one.
Also, I seem to remember that any credit on it is lost if you don't use it for a year... meaning an old sim is not going to help you.

BUT these cards are sold on every street corner here, so what is keeping you from buying one from the first supermarket you encounter next time you are here?

Hi Wiljo,

Yes I know they are readily available but I was hoping to save valuable fishing time by taking everything along and not having to go shopping and there are very few shops where I'm going (Noorden near Nieuwkoopse ).

Plus I could use it from straight off the ferry to make sure the fridge is full of cold ones.

You're right about losing credit too but it was only a few euros. Mods:

Is it a "Hi Prepay" card Narpy?

I may be able to organise one for you with 10 Euro on it from Holland.

I'm Dutch too you see

So, leave it with me for a bit.

It is/was Hi Prepay.
Nice one Hess, I'm not leaving till June 1st so there is time hopefully.
Don't put yourself out Hess, I'm kinda resigned to using my UK phone and having a painful bill.

I don't have an old one laying around; but no problem to buy a new one for you while i am in a shop and post it to the UK or your dutch holiday address.
Just let me know your wishes: operator (KPN/ Vodafone/etc) and preferred credit.

I'm waiting on a reply from a guy on the Dutch eBay.
There's only 1 Hi Prepay on there. But I doubt he'll
bother with posting to the UK.
The rest on Marktplaats.nl didn't get back to me yet, so I don't know
whether they'll be up for it.

I think HansP's offer is one I can't match

Hans, your offer is fantastic and I'll take you up on it, many thanks.
I'll PM you the dutch address when I get home ( currently at work ) as to post to the UK may prove too long.
Could you PM me your Paypal details please so I can pay you?

Many thanks also Hess.

You've gotta love this place for sorting problems.
