Hi. As you are doing such a magnificent job about Israel, I'll share all my Vodafone secrets with you. To retrieve your number is not so easy when balance is at zero. Best way is to send a SMS or make a call attempt (unanswered) and the number will be displayed. The app auto-connects to your number, but only when data is running through the SIM that can be expensive from overseas. Another way is USSD code *#62# showing your mailbox number. Thats your number mostly with a "50" at 6/7th and 7/8th position additionally squeezed in like +49152050'''#######. You have to skip the 50 in the middle and enter German format 01520#######.'''

About topping up small amounts. Generally Vodafone likes to see big $$$ and top-ups start at €15. But they recently have introduced €5 "cash cards". They are not sold as vouchers, but only available online through their website. Vodafone may be picky about some overseas credit cards. Try PayPal too. For €10 you might have to do the €5 procedure twice. Another inofficial way is to use a €9 Otelo voucher that works on Vodafone too. These are available in Germany or online (choosing Otelo instead of Vodafone) e.g. at prelado.de
