What is the cheapest contract at Simpel?

Saving on your monthly phone costs? You're not the only one. Research by the ACM shows that nearly 40% of the Dutch are actively looking for the cheapest sim only contract. Simpel cleverly plays on this with their competitive prices and flexible bundles.

But what is really the cheapest contract at Simpel, and for whom is it suitable? In this article we list it for you. Short, clear and no sales pitch.

The lowest price: from €4 per month

Yes, you read it right. At Simpel you can already get a sim only contract from €4 per month.

What do you get for that price?

For that price you get:

  • 100 minutes
     
  • 50 SMS
     
  • 500 MB data
     

Not much, but enough for those who use their phone mainly to be accessible. Think elderly people, kids with a first phone, or people who are always on wifi. It's also a smart choice if you use your mobile for business but barely use it privately.

Contract term and conditions

The €4 plan is only available with a 2-year contract. With a 1-year contract or monthly contract, the price usually increases by €1 to €2 per month.

Note that although the monthly price is low, you do pay for any out-of-bundle charges. So don't forget to set your cap.

Other cheap contracts from Simpel

Not everyone makes do with 500 MB. Fortunately, Simpel also has inexpensive bundles with a bit more space.

Entry-level contracts with data and calling

For €5 to €7 a month, you get, for example:

  • 300 to 500 calling minutes
     
  • 1 to 2 GB of data
     

Those bundles are popular among students, zzp'ers or people who just want to keep their work phone functional. Also ideal if you only use some navigation or Spotify on the go.

Affordable bundles with more data

Are you just a little more active? Then there are bundles of:

  • 10 GB from €9.50
     
  • 20 GB with unlimited calls around €12 to €14
     

Tip: keep an eye on Simpel's offers page for temporary discounts.

What should you pay attention to when choosing?

The cheapest contract is not automatically the best choice. A few considerations:

Usage: how many call minutes and MBs do you really need?

Check your current usage via:

  • your phone settings
     
  • your previous bills or provider app
     

Do you structurally use 2 GB? Then it's smart to get a 3 GB contract. That way you avoid extra costs, but you also don't pay unnecessarily much.

Flexibility: monthly adjustable bundles

At Simpel, you can adjust your bundle every month for free. This is ideal if you need more data during vacation periods, or call less temporarily.

Pro tip: use the first month to measure your real behavior. Only after that, definitively set higher.

Cost control: setting a ceiling

Use the Simple Ceiling to avoid unexpected costs. You set your own limit for call minutes, text messages or data.
