Wind 9 Limited Edition

Wind 9 Limited Edition is much better than Wind 12, of course, but it is sold in a limited number, as the name suggests. In reality, by now it has always been easily available since months at any Wind shop. So go for it instead Wind 12, if you are looking for this kind of tariff.

Wind 5

Wind 5 has a monthly fee of € 5.00, automatically deducted from your prepaid credit.

Pieno Wind New

For every call and SMS received from off-net (non-Wind) numbers in Italy, you get an instant bonus credit of € 0.03/min (calculated per second) for calls and 0.03/message for SMS.
The activation fee is € 7.00 and it has a validity of 4 months, after that it will be automatically prolonged at a cost of € 4.00 for other 4 months. You can check the bonus dialing *123*0#
