Questions About Wind Prepaid Card - Page 3

Effendi · 08-06-2006, 12:05

Hi Jan and welcome to the forum.
The deactivation is 30 days after the activation, not the last use of the option. I.e. if you active it today, 8th of June, and then you send the deactivating SMS it will work till 7th of July.

There have been some problems recharging with non-Italian credit cards, but they seem to be over. Anyway you live in Germany so you can use O2 Loop scratch cards as well to recharge it, which is quite easy.

I think Poste Italiane doesn't deserve such a bad reputation. I'm used to send mails to and from Germany and never had any problems. And it usually takes the same time with PT and DP, so I won't get worried. We also sent many Wind cards by now and none got lost. Anyway you can ask Andrea about the tracking option.

All correct, that works in Italy only. All the money you spend (max 600?) in a month will be credited back the following month. My mum got it for free!

Does anyone know a similar service that is free of charge?

I'd be happy for any hints

may i quote myself here:

I found a free compression proxy tool:
www.toonel.net

its a java application - compression rate is about 50%, quite ok for a free tool.

Yes, it works.
My girlfriend recently came back from a 6 week trip trough the US and had no problems using the card with Cingular and T-Mobile.

I recharge with VISA card on their website, but foreign credit cards are always a bit tricky.
