P.S. Lots of neo-fascists in Rome |
Hi Effendi
No problem, I am world-wise enough to know that every place has its fair share of people who really make us all cringe. It is their responsibility and that of their employer, not that of a whole country.
What I am more worried about is getting the recharge money this dealer charged me. 10 Euros per voice SIM and 20 Euros for the Mega Unlimited SIM, paid on Sunday, still not in our accounts. It seems to me this is a fly-by-night operation that takes people's cash and uses that to pay business expenses before transferring credit to customers Wind accounts. Possibly contrary to company law on insolvent trading in some jurisdictions I would guess.
I am not alone. They had a thick pile of photocopied client details & simcards of those they had "served" on Sunday. I wonder if the OP's daughter is in the same boat. I get that it was a Sunday and dependent businesses were closed, but it is now Tuesday afternoon....
In any case, not a good look for the Wind brand in this very busy gateway into Italy for thousands of tourists!
A shame - the data package is great, and works great here in the countryside of Castellino in Chianti.
BTW - thanks for your excellent guide on prepaid data in Italy - it is invaluable!
