Get operator help

If the purchase menu does not match your SIM, dial 300 from the relevant network or use the operator support page before paying through another channel.

Before you pay

Read the operator's confirmation before approving the purchase. Check the price, everyday data, restricted extras, validity and whether the bundle renews automatically.

  • The NCC market table used here is current to April 2026; it does not establish that every operator instruction will remain unchanged after this guide's check date.
  • T2's official pages currently contain a mixture of T2, MyT2, 9mobile and Ig9ite naming, so confirm the branding shown on your SIM or account before continuing.
  • Bundle prices, allowances, eligibility and auto-renewal rules can change. Review the operator's confirmation screen or message before paying.
