Topping-up SFR France sim from Italy (repost)

Schlips1 · 19-07-2010, 22:13

Today I was in the same situation - in Greece!
My SFR was in the "hibernation"-status (after expiry before switch off).

Calling to 950 worked, when pressing "1" (check credit) I got told that I do not have enough credit (in french) to check my credit (!). After dialing again and pressing "2" (top up) I got the message that ther number is incorrect (!).

When dialing the 952 I got the same message: The number is incorrect.

After waiting for a while (around 15 minutes) surprisingly it worked: I could dial the 952 and top up the SFR sim with a 5 € Vodafone Greece voucher (3 € credit).

The best thing: The validity for the 3 € is one month.

So it seems the system in France needs a little time to work properly.....
