wherever i look, i cannot find the often mentioned ''Wind plus non-stop
offer'' anywhere on their webpage, at least not on the english pages.
is there a secret backdoor?

greetings - heinz -

I found it on this site: http://www.windplus.gr/
but the link I bookmarked http://www.windplus.gr/default.asp?siteid=2&langID=2 is dead.
It's mentioned in this Greek page:
http://www.windplus.gr/help.aspx

... which might indicate it is not available to foreign visitors anymore. by mistake, or on purpose?

greetings - heinz

The service is still available...

I just googled the term ("plus non-stop" site:wind.com.gr) and here it is:
http://www.wind.com.gr/pages.fds?langid=2&pageid=1512

You can also go to the site and follow the drop down menus as follows: "For individuals->Prepaid->Wind F2G->Wind plus non-stop service"

Enjoy!

>> Enjoy!

i sure will, that is good news.

why the other english pages have vanished nobody will probably ever find out.

could it be they are checking IPs? ''For individuals->Prepaid->Wind F2G->Wind
plus non-stop service'' - that part for example is not there.

greetings - heinz -

PS: oh no, it is there, but only if you hangle yourself through from the top left menus ...
not the other ones down below left (also INDV -> PPD -> F2G)

Can someone tell me prices for other services on wind plus non-stop (voice calls, sms to foreign networks ...) ?

'plus non-stop' gives you internet access. For other F2G rates go here and follow the drop-down menus:
Wind mobile telephony > For individuals > Prepaid > Wind F2G > Pricelist

I expect you can activate other non-stop services as well as plus - but I don't know.

Please note that Wind F2G has a "price commitment" which means that besides their own tariff plans you can also activate F2G with any tariff plan offered by competing companies on the Greek market. Thus, on the price list you will see F2G prices (which Wind supports are the best) as well as F2G 1-F2G 8 which match competing offers (like Cosmote What's up, Cosmote CosmoKARTA, Vodafone CU, Vodafone a la Carte, Q card, Frog, Carrefour mobile etc...)

You can change your tariff plan every 30 days free of charge.

Wind plus non-stop is an add-on service that can be activated on all Wind lines, both prepaid (F2G) and postpaid.

Hello gmmour!!

I would like to go to greece for 2 weeks at the end of August.

I am very happy I found this forum and your great posts! Last time I spend 300 Euros to Vodafone (websessions) which was expensive but though very useful for me.

Now I would like to buy a Wind F2G prepaid card and use the 7-day offer two times, to have no hassle with the 1MB rule or anything else.


I use a Merlin 3G/UMTS Card for my Notebook (because I have an antenna fitting into the card and the transmission is very well like this) and therefor I need to configure the APN correctly.

So, what is the right APN string to configure the UMTS Card for using the WIND 7-day option?

Thank you very much again,
finejam



PS: Because COSMOTE seems to have the best 3G/UMTS network in Greece and I like to travel around, I would like to have a Backup wirh Cosmote.
Do they also have an PREPAID Offer at reasonabel costs????

The APN for the ADSM offers is gint.b-online.gr (WIND Internet when you download it from their website)...

Cosmote only offers the "Cosmote MY View pass" which costs 4 Euro/month and offers unlimited access to their "My View" WAP portal as well as 40 MB of Web traffic...

Their normal price is 0,0119 Euro/kB though...

Why don't you consider signing up for one of their postpaid data offers (Cosmote, Vodafone or Wind)? You'll just pay the first (or maybe second month) but still it might be cheaper for you... There is no minimum contract duration so you can cancel anytime you want...
