Frequently asked questions
Q. How much does it cost?
A. Before you pay you will be told the total amount that is due for the top up you are sending and also details of any other charges. These charges will include ones from our bank, the card companies and our secure online payment processing company.

Q. Why am I charged a secure online processing fee?
A. This represents part of the charges which we must pay in order to process your card as safely and securely as possible online.

Q. How quickly does the top up get to the phone?
A. Within seconds.

Q. Can I use my own UK credit card, or do I need a credit card issued in the same country as my SIM card? What are the payment options?
A. You can use your own UK credit card. You can currently use VISA credit cards, VISA debit cards, VISA Electron cards, VISA Delta cards, MasterCard debit cards, MasterCard credit cards and Maestro debit cards. You can also use PayPal for most services and in future we will be adding more payment options.

Q. What can I do if I sent the top up to the wrong number by accident?
A. All transactions are final. Once the top up is sent to a phone number, it is available for use immediately; hence it cannot be refunded or removed from the phone again. Please always double check the number you enter.

Q. Does the recipient know who the top up is from?
A. The recipient is notified that they have received top up for all transactions. For almost all countries you have the option to enter a personal message where you can send a special message to the person at the same time. They will not know who has sent it unless you inform them.

Q. How can I contact customer service?
A. Your mobile top up recharge will be processed by Ezetop. You can contact Ezetop by email at customercare@ezetop.com.

Get FREE cheap international call credit for each & every topup done by your friends

All you need to do is to enter the mobile number of your friends in the form below and submit. Your friends will receive a text message from us on their mobile with 25p free complimentary credit to taste the service. Once they have used the service and would want to use it further, they will have to do a topup and from there on you will receive free credit every time they do a topup.

To buy £5 credit, your friends should text MOO to 80077 or MOO to 67400 to buy £10 credit (and they will also get their £1 extra FREE) for more information on Text & Talk see http://www.mootel.co.uk/text-and-talk.html.
