SIMYO SCAMMERS

After cancelling my prepaid membership, they clearly told me on the phone that they would refund. After 2 months of sending emails, they just reply and say the don't offer refunds. Simyo is a scam, dont go there.

Blatant scam company

Blatant scam company!I paid 5 euros on their website to order an eSIM card, but they sent me an email refusing to create the eSIM, but they didn't refund my 5 euros, that's their trick of scamming!

After you went to great lengths to get in touch with them and provide information to request a refund, they brazenly asked for your ID proof, is Simyo an operator or a police officer, or a 100% fraudster?

Worst service ever. Refused service as my bank account name didn’t match however still took money out of my account and then refused to refund. Terrible company should be charged with theft.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your review. We are sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with our service. Our sincere apologies for this.

It is possible that your order was rejected because the name on the Simyo account did not match the name on the bank account. In such cases, we always inform customers via email.

In this case, it would be best to send an email to klantenservice@simyo.nl or contact us through our customer service chat with the following document:

A copy of the name on your bank account or a copy/photo of the relevant bank card (make sure to obscure the card number to prevent fraud, or use the KopieID app from the Dutch government). This will help us confirm that you are the account holder and approve the order.

If you send us an email at webcare@simyo.nl with a reference to this review and your personal information, we can check if the refund is on its way.

Greetings,

Simyo Webcare

Terrible customer service - please avoid

Recently, I had the problem of Simyo charging me 60.50€ within minutes of landing in Turkey. Of course, this wasn’t intended and the only way I could have avoided this was to turn off my roaming data before landing in Turkey. As you can imagine, when travelling within Europe, it might be difficult to remember to turn off roaming as you’re busy with all the airport stress already. I then did my research and realised I was charged l 5€/MB! My partner had the same issue with another provider, but he managed to get it waived no problem. I talked to a Simyo representative, Samantha, who was being condescending and displayed 0 empathy to my situation even though I explained that I did not receive the border message informing me of the rates. She insisted that I turned the option off but when I said I didn’t (I received border messages from other countries) she said and I quote, “Too bad you didn’t receive it this time but we sent it, be sure to turn off your data now to avoid further costs”. I was appalled as I’ve never received such messages from customer service from a professional company before. Could it be a translation issue? Even though she offered me a refund of 12.74€ out of the 60.50€, I would not recommend this service as refunding 12.74€ out of 60.50€ for unintended costs is not worth the hassle to bear such attitude from customer service.
The plans are cheap but they find all sorts of additional ways to charge unwitting customers.

Stay clear from Simyo

If I could give a lower score I would.
Customer service is beyond a joke.

In short, didn't see that anywhere there is a month termination period.
And still trying to get money out of me months later.

Takes them days to respond, then when you reply again, it takes days to respond, "who are you again, what was the question" you guessed it... again days to respond, talking to a new person each time.

Strongly recommend to go elsewhere

Disgusting illegal company

Disgusting illegal company. Stay far away from this company and stick to any other telecom. I got an €8 sim only plan with them but cancelled within 14 days, but they still charged me the same amount despite cancelling within the cooling period. Now they are suddenly telling me I need to pay €50 as "administrative costs have been added" as I have "not paid for the services" (I reversed the charges as it should have been refunded). They are threatening me to send it to a debt collector even. Absolutely illegal behaviour and breaching EU laws.

During the order

During the order, it was mentioned that PostNL would deliver the order, and after the order was completed, I was informed that it would be delivered by AMP. Really?????? I hate AMP, had the worst experience ever with them, and do not like them at all.

When you order sim only the sim get's delivered with PostNL. However phone deliveries always go through AMP. Our apologies if this isn't mentioned clearly while placing an order. Hopefully receiving your order went well this time. If not please let us know.

Factuur 104€ more for 694mb.. Cheaters!

I exceeded my internet limit by 694mb and I have to pay an additional 104.07€ for it. This is a joke to charge so much money for such a small amount of internet! Sick! They should close it down and hold it accountable!

Hi Patryk,

Thank you for your review. We can imagine that you were shocked by these costs. At Simyo, we recently added the feature of a data cap.

The data cap is a feature that allows you to browse the internet worry-free, without having to worry about extra costs outside your bundle. It ensures that your internet connection automatically stops as soon as you have used up your internet bundle, preventing unexpected costs. The data cap is available for internet use in the Netherlands and zone 1 (EU).

For the data cap, you only pay €0.50 per month, which is automatically added to your monthly bill. Without the data cap, you pay €0.15 per MB outside your bundle. I would suggest enabling this feature so you won't have unexpected high costs outside of the bundle. You can do this in the Mijn Simyo app.

If you don't enable the data cap, Simyo will always send you two warning SMS messages when you have reached 80% and 100% of your bundle. The app is not always in sync with your actual usage, but the text messages we send are directly from the network and are the most accurate. To avoid high costs, it is advisable to switch off 4G on your phone as soon as you receive the text message at 100%. Have you seen these messages?

If you incur high costs outside your bundle within a short period of time, we will block your SIM card as a precaution and send you an email about this. We try to block the SIM card from €100, but because usage is processed with a delay in our system, the costs can exceed €100 depending on how many MBs have been used.

It is important to know that as long as the internet connection on the SIM card is active, there is always a chance that data will be used, both consciously and unconsciously. This can happen, for example, through updates or applications that remain active in the background.

Of course, we understand that this was not intended on your part. This is why we would like to take a look at your subscription with you and see if we can find a solution. Can you e-mail us at webcare@simyo.nl with a reference to this review and your personal information?

Hello Anton,

Thankyou for your review. We are sorry to see that you had a bad experience with us.

How strange that you received a physical SIM card even though you had opted for the eSIM.

If you activated the physical simcard you can always switch to eSIM trough the Mijn Simyo app. You do this by Instellingen > Simkaart > Overstappen naar eSIM. You then only have to follow the steps that you see in the app!

Be aware that it may not work if you bought the telephone abroad.

If you need any help with the installation of the eSIM you can send a e-mail to webcare@simyo.nl with your personal information and a reference from this review. We would like to help you further then.
