Prepaid SIM in Italy?

ca-uk · 25-06-2010, 22:17

so, i saw a big shop with WIND all over it and went in and bought a WIND sim card

i went armed with a codice fiscale (from the website linked to on here), my passport and i asked for the 'mega unlimited' package to be activated. now, the lady in the shop spoke no english, so all i know is i now have a sim card, and i paid them 30 euros.

i've popped it in my windows mobile, which is 3g and unlocked, and at the moment it still says "no service" so i assume the sim is not yet active. do i need to do anything to activate it? from what she was saying i did pick up the terms 'day' 'free' and 'special offer' - so i believe that i bought the card with enough credit for the 'mega unlimited' plan to be applied when the card is activated?

thanks!
