It is only served via the hi site. Also, the brand does not have customer service over the phone. Customers who have questions contact the chatbot and can send an email, call hey is not possible

Hey offers subscriptions with eSim and via recyclable SIM cards. Orange customers will be able to switch to hey-eSim with their SIM in a few weeks, if they wish. Hey uses Orange mobile network and thus gets HD Voice, VoLTE and VoWiFi support. It is not yet known whether customers will have 5G internet when Orange rolls out its 5G network in Belgium. Hey is a direct answer to the cheap Mobile Vikings, which was launched recently Acquired by telecom provider Proximus.
