Your monthly mobile data needs depend on your usage habits. We categorize users into two main groups:

  • Heavy users: Stream videos in high definition, play data-intensive online games, and frequently use data-heavy apps. These users typically require plans with high or unlimited data.
  • Regular users: Engage in regular browsing, social media, messaging, occasional video streaming, and casual gaming. These users can usually manage with data plans ranging from 5 GB to 15 GB per month.

What happens if I exceed my mobile data limit?

Yes, you can usually keep your phone number when switching mobile providers, a process known as number portability. Most providers make this process simple by allowing you to enter your current phone number directly into the online subscription form during the signup process. This notifies your new provider that you want to retain your number, and they will handle the transfer from your old provider.

Types of Mobile Plans

What is the difference between prepaid and postpaid mobile plans?
Button to expand the text

On this website, we focus on mobile subscriptions, which are often referred to as postpaid plans. With these plans, you sign a contract with a provider, and you're billed monthly based on your usage (data, minutes, etc.). These plans often come with better rates, larger data allowances, and additional features like 4G/5G access and international roaming. Prepaid plans, on the other hand, don't require a long-term contract, and you pay upfront for the data, minutes, or texts you plan to use. However, prepaid options may come with fewer benefits and could be less cost-effective if you require a larger data plan. If you're looking for flexible and feature-rich plans, we recommend exploring mobile subscriptions, which you can compare easily on our platform.

Are there any unlimited mobile data plans available in Belgium?

Yes, several providers in Belgium offer unlimited mobile data plans. These plans vary in price and additional features, so it's important to compare options to find the one that offers the best value for your usage patterns. Check our comparison tool for the latest unlimited data plans.
