But why on earth are you with Movistar? They have the least value data packages you can ever imagine. They are also an "absolute nonsense" company! |

by accident, so I guess I'm screwed Can't even topup the thing via their internet site Ok, this will have to solve itself, off to the supermarket for vouchers.
Is there an agressive player in the spanish market who wants the tourist business and has the resources to deal with that ? |

There are quite a few aggressive players but I am not sure if any really have the resources for the tourist market. I think masMovil with their English and German websites and a few multilingual customer service agents seem to be the most promising. Yoigo also have a few multi-lingual staff! To be honest, generally speaking, the rather large tourist business is catered to embarrassingly poorly out here!

The ebay seller states that you have to send a copy of your passport to masmovil in order to register and has been co-operative on my questions, so might be worth a go. Its £12 for a MasMovil SIM with 10 euro credit on it, so not such a big deal if it have to throw it away after my visit - just get another next year! Can you confirm that the faxing/emailing of a passport scan would be what MasMovil would want to register and that a UK passport would be ok? Whats the deal with Simyo? They don't expire as they don't have a minimum spend? Thanks again |

Here's the deal with Yoigo in summer 2010:
Yoigo 3G PAYG prepaid internet in Spain IData with their MoviData card is trying to get a share of the market by lowering the daily fee to € 1.50. However it's not flat-fee. Above 100Mb they charge 6 eurocents / Mb. At 3G speeds it can ruin your prepaid balance in no time. Cheers! |

I'm off to Menorca (Balearic islands) tomorrow for a week. would love to have a week's unlimited(ish) internet and reasonably priced texts to UK. Will need a SIM for my Nexus One phone rather than a dongle.
Any suggestions? Thanks. |

Inicio > Internet Móvil > Carrefour Telecom Most of the networks have deals for around €10 per month, but most of them force you to have a voice plan first - so expect to pay around €20 with the other networks. |

Are you on an o2 contract back in the UK? If you are, you can still use your inclusive texts in Spain (back to the UK) on a 4:1 ratio.
