More Wind Questions

I had purchased a Wind SIM card last August and I think I used up all the credit. I am returning to Italy in a few weeks and have a few questions....

I'm sure the number is still valid because it was purchased less than a year ago but will I be able to receive incoming calls and SMS for free immediately or do I have to refill the account first? It might take me a little while to find a Wind store or a tabacchi to buy a voucher.

To refill the account, is there any way to do it on the iWind user functions? I'm getting confused with TIM, who does allow you to enter the PIN from the recharge cards? Or do I have to dial *124*4242# as my only option? I cannot refill on the mondowind website because I do not have an Italian credit card.

When I call *124*4242#, is it all in Italian or is there English instructions that come after the Italian? I cannot remember if there was English instructions.

Finally, do you know where the Wind stores are in Venice? I had purchased my Wind card in Florence. If not, are they available at most tabacchis or will I have to look for a tabacchi that sells them?
