Robin, what you are describing is very normal Yoigo activity. Hundreds of users have had the same problem, and most have moved onto other networks. There is no condition in their tariff or clause or amendment in their terms and conditions that should suggest this should happen but it just does! I ditched them ages ago for this very reason. Besides, if using the internet almost every day their internet access (at either €1.20 per day or €3 per day just works out downright expensive!

In my opinion, Yoigo are clutching at straws a bit as I do not think they are doing as well as their investors thought they could. There is just way too much competition in the MVNO sector here in Spain, and Yoigo are actually more than an MVNO as they own some of the spectrum here and are trying to build up their own network!

However, you may be stuck with them after all! The problem where you are is that you are unlikely to have a decent AMENA (Orange) signal. This is who the cheapest data options are with, as mentioned above. If you do have an Amena 3G signal, you could consider Blau or Simyo!
