very new to this and need help

[s.r.]

i guess i'm deciding between yoigo and vodafone then. for those who have used yoigo before: are you certain that incoming calls (in spain) are free? because the site lists 12cents/todas las llamdas.

i wasn't really anticipating the need to call customer service or anything.. i just need something that's cheap and easy to re-up

I just wanted to reiterate what Krabat and others were saying. A lot of my north American visitors need extra assurance on this fairly basic issue that the rest of us take for granted. There are very very few countries in the world where you are charged for incoming calls, and the USA just happens to be one of them!

For the rest of us (including everyone here in Europe), incoming calls are 100% free on any prepaid or postpaid cell/mobile phone. This is of course provided you are in the country where the SIM card is primarily intended to be used in. e.g. If you buy a Vodafone SIM in spain you will not get charged to recieve a call in Spain (regardless of where it comes from). However, if you take the SIM elsewhere in Europe (even if you are still on Vodafone), and if someone were to call then you you will get charged!
