Prepaid Micro Sim for Europe

EDF30 · **Prepaid Micro Sim for Europe -** 27-03-2013, 17:17

Hello all! I have read quite a few threads here, but still not sure of what to do.

I am doing european delivery of a BMW and will be driving in Germany, Austria, Italy, France, and the Netherlands.

All the homes/hotels I will stay at will have free wifi, so am covered at night.

I would like to buy a micro sim that will allow me to make a few calls during the day or night and also have data so I can check emails etc on the road. I won't be recieving or making calls to USA. I have an unlocked Google Nexus 4.

Just need one microsim on a system that has good wide coverage in these countries, in the mountains, on freeways in the country etc as well as urban areas. Ability to top up the sim online while on road would be nice. Will start trip in Amsterdam or Munich (car pickup is in Munich, but may go to Amsterdam first)

Vodaphone appears to serve all these countries, what could I buy upon landing at Amsterdam or Munich that fits my needs? I understand I will have roaming fees for calls made while outside the country where I buy the sim, does roaming apply to internet/email use also? Please explain as if I was your Granpa

Any links or info will be greatly appreciated!
