How to subscribe?<\/strong><\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
All operators offer online subscription systems, in their shops or via distributors. To ensure that all your connections are activated when you move in, start the subscription process at least 4 weeks in advance. The length of the subscription or connection procedures will depend on the services chosen and the equipment required.<\/div>

Telephone & mobile internet<\/strong><\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
Belgium is not the cheapest country when it comes to telephony and mobile internet. Calling a foreign country from Belgium can seriously inflate your bill. If you call or surf from abroad, roaming charges have disappeared within the European area! (roaming = using your mobile package via the network of an operator other than the one to which you subscribe). However, roaming charges in other parts of the world are not regulated. They can go up very quickly.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
Each operator offers a range of services and packages. However, it is advisable to carefully compare tariffs and conditions before choosing an operator. To obtain a subscription you can do so online or go to the point of sale of your choice with :<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
- An identity document<\/div>
- Proof of address (an electricity bill, your lease, a bank statement,...)<\/div>
- Your bank account number and IBAN code.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
You can take out a monthly subscription or a pre-paid card system.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>

Apart from the traditional operators: Carrefour, Colruyt, Aldi, bPost, Mobile Viking... and many others offer you pre-paid cards. You can find them in supermarkets and newspaper shops as well as in post offices. From now on, operators are obliged to link every SIM card in the country to an identity document.<\/p>
