Simyo Spain €5/month data (upto 500MB)

[seal]

i catched up englis speaking agent after many many calls. And he told me that tarif with 1,2eur/day is only for mobile use not computers. If they suspect they throttle bandwidth. For computer is new tarif 3eur/day/100m. Very disapointing! He didnt know if i change tarif. Advised me to buy new sim with proper tarif. :/

Yes... this is all as suspected, and that is why I recommended going to a 'Phone House' to pick up a new SIM. I don't understand why they cannot 'convert' the older cards into HSDPA accesible cards, but if you look at their online shop: https://tienda.yoigo.com, you will see that they sell the 2 types of SIM's as 2 distinct products! Anyhow, as you are leaving tommorow, there is no use buying a new one at 20 euros.

Just goes to show that Yoigo is no longer the product that it once was. Their voice rates and minimum consumption are also not that competitive anymore. It served me well for over a year, and it is time to move onto a new product... and that is what this thread is about!

There are places in Barcelona you can pick up free WiFI and also plenty of FON spots if you are subscribed to that! Good luck, and sorry you had a bad experience.

today yoigo works fine. I disabled instant messengers and only traffic from-to-my pc is smtp/pop3/http/https... so they dont throttled me maybe they do it if see "strange" traffic? that can be easliy done by netflow monitors...
