call 2345 free to top-up with your registered card. Cheaper and easier

This should work when the network is Vodafone Greece.

If you have pre-registered your credit card / debit card, then the Vodafone
menu can be used to topup from nearly every network without call or data
costs (those networks that support USSD which is nearly all).

2345 definitly works abroad on all vodafone prefered networks as well
as most non-prefered ones. The options are slighly different than
when your at home but top-up is definitly available
