Looking for a Sim Only plan with unlimited internet and considering Hollandsnieuwe? Below you'll find out whether Hollandsnieuwe offers that, what its largest bundle actually gives you, and what your alternatives are.

Does Hollandsnieuwe offer an unlimited data bundle?

No, Hollandsnieuwe doesn't have a bundle with unlimited internet. All five of Hollandsnieuwe's bundles have a fixed size, expressed in MB that you split between data, calls and texts: from 5,000 to 40,000 MB/min/text. If you're looking for a literally unlimited data bundle, you'll need to look at another provider.

So what is the largest bundle?

Hollandsnieuwe's largest bundle is 40,000 MB/min/text. Converted purely to data (1GB is roughly 1,000MB), that comes out to the equivalent of up to 40GB per month, provided you don't use any calling minutes or texts that month. In practice you'll always use some of it on calls and texts, so the data actually available is somewhat lower. For most users this is plenty, but anyone who streams heavily every day without WiFi could run into the limit.

What happens when your bundle runs out?

Hollandsnieuwe works on a prepaid principle: once it's used, it's used. Once your bundle for that month is used up, you can't browse, call or text until you top up (via the app, the website, or a text to 101) or the next month starts. So there's no automatic extra charge or unexpectedly high bill — but you are without mobile internet if you forget to top up.

Fair use when travelling in the EU

If you use your Hollandsnieuwe bundle abroad within the EU, a fair use policy applies. The general rule: as long as you spend more time in the Netherlands than abroad, or use your mobile more in the Netherlands than abroad, you can roam in the EU at your Dutch rates. If you consistently use more abroad than in the Netherlands over a four-month period, Hollandsnieuwe will contact you and give you 14 days to adjust your usage. If usage remains unreasonable after that, surcharges apply: €0.03 per minute, €0.01 per text, and €0.01 per MB. If you live or work near the border, a day on which you use both the Dutch network and a foreign network doesn't count as a 'day abroad'.

Comparison with providers that do offer unlimited internet

Several providers in the Netherlands now offer a Sim Only bundle with genuinely unlimited internet, often with a fair-use speed reduction after a certain amount of data. If you choose Hollandsnieuwe deliberately for its clear MB/min/text system and often sharp pricing, the absence of an unlimited bundle is a conscious trade-off. If you specifically want the largest possible or a literally unlimited data bundle, it's worth comparing with providers that do offer that.

Who is a large Hollandsnieuwe bundle enough for?

For most users — including those who regularly watch video, navigate, or spend a lot of time on social media — the 40,000 MB/min/text bundle is more than enough, especially combined with WiFi at home and at work. Only those who are consistently off WiFi and stream, download, or video call heavily risk running into the limit.
