IBAN: DE07300400000121790001
BIC: COBADEDDXXX
reference:

Recharges by bank transfer prolong validity of your SIM card as follows:
< € 0.10 = no prolongation
>= € 0.10 = 3 days
> € 1 = 1 month

So you can test this method by transferring a cent or so. Once your payment has been received and the amount has been accredited to your account you'll receive an SMS confirming the recharge.

This is actually very nice. So to put the card to sleep when you ony use it once a year, just to be sure, you transfer 1 euro every month and the card stays active?

Hmm, I'm leaving this friday for a holliday. Anybody so kind to buy some cards and mail me?

Maybe I just drive to Germany this afternoon.

It's even more convenient because with higher recharges validity will be prolonged for longer:
€ 5 = 4 months
€ 15 = 12 months
€ 30 = 24 months

Also after these terms have been exceeded (so-called "Aktivitätszeitfenster"), your SIM card will remain reachable for another two months during which you can fully re-activate your SIM card by a recharge.
Some additional info in German can be found at ALDI TALK ? Prepaid-wiki

I won't make it to an Aldi store before tomorrow and according to Deutsche Post letters to Belgium take 2-3 days, so there's the risk of the SIM card not arriving in time. If you still want me to get you a SIM card, drop me a PM and we will try.

Thanks for the offer, I couldn't take that chance so I went to Germany today to pick up a card

I registered it but it still says no service, maybe I'll just have to be patient?
