Pros and cons
hollandsnieuwe
Pros
- The cheapest overall plan opens at €4.50 a month, and the cheapest large-data plan opens at the same entry figure, so more data does not cost extra at the start.
- Billing runs contract, rolling and prepaid, so a line can be taken as a contract, on a rolling basis or as prepaid without moving to another seller.
- eSIM and wifi calling are both offered on the sim only range, and EU roaming is fair use rather than a pay-per-use extra.
Cons
- The listed plan prices treat €4.50 as the opening figure only, and the cheapest overall plan moves to a higher monthly price after the opening term.
- The largest listed plan caps data and sells unlimited calls as a paid add-on, so heavy callers pay separately for calls on top of the bundle.
- The range is sold in NL on the Vodafone host network, which keeps the line focused on the Dutch market rather than a multi-country footprint.
Very Mobile
Pros
- Entry pricing of €1.99 for the Very Things plan puts it near the bottom of the price table.
- The price rule states the price is fixed forever and never increased, so the entry rate holds at renewal.
- The Very Giga illimitati plan gives unlimited data for €14.99, below the site median for unlimited pricing.
Cons
- It is an MVNO on mvno rather than a network, so support and coverage rest on a host network rather than its own.
- Support runs on phone, help centre and chat only, with no email or community channel listed.
- The unlimited plan is not the cheapest way in: €14.99 is well above the entry price of €1.99.
Who each suits
hollandsnieuwe
Who it suits
- Callers in the Netherlands who want a sim only line and would rather pick a short term than commit for a longer one.
- Anyone who wants contract, rolling and prepaid billing under the same seller instead of moving between companies.
- Households happy to start at a low figure and absorb the step up afterwards, since the entry rate is introductory only.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want to buy from the network itself, since GETESA, Lonestar Cell MTN and yesss! each sell as network, network and network operators.
- Callers who need unlimited data in a single plan, because the listed plan prices cap data and offer unlimited calls as a paid add-on.
- Travellers who expect roaming included without limits, because EU roaming runs under fair use rather than as a full allowance.
Very Mobile
Who it suits
- Shoppers in Italy who want a prepaid SIM only plan with no contract
- People who plan to keep the same SIM for a long time and want the rate to stay put
- Travellers inside the EU who want roaming included in the plan
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who need service outside Italy, since it runs in IT only
- Shoppers who want a network carrier rather than a reseller, and should look at Lonestar Cell MTN with network
- People who need a physical store relationship, and should compare GETESA with network

Questions about each
hollandsnieuwe
What does a Hollandsnieuwe line cost to begin with?+
A sim only line starts at €4.50 a month. Two bundles share that entry figure: the cheapest overall plan with a small data allowance, and the cheapest large-data plan with more data on the same starting price. The larger bundle costs more after the opening period ends.
Is the starting price also the renewal price?+
It is not. The listed plan prices present €4.50 as the opening figure, and the cheapest overall plan moves to a higher monthly price after the opening term ends. The same step applies to the larger bundle, so anyone comparing monthly outgoings over a year should budget with the renewal figure.
Very Mobile
What does the cheapest Very Mobile plan cost?+
The cheapest plan is Very Things at €1.99, a small data allowance on a prepaid basis. It runs with no contract, so there is no minimum term to serve. The price rule also states the price is fixed and never increased.
How much is the unlimited data plan?+
The Very Giga illimitati plan costs €14.99 for unlimited data. It is the top of the range rather than the entry point, and it too runs without a contract. On the site, unlimited plans rank at 48 out of 173 brands.
