IPhone4 Prepaid Sim & Data

Eagertraveler · **IPhone4 Prepaid Sim & Data -** 06-06-2011, 03:48

Looking for the best option for a prepaid sim card for Italy, Germany & Portugal. I would prefer to only buy 1.

Many thanks

Meant to add to purchase in Italy.

There's no data option which gives you data for all the 3 countries, I suggest you to buy one for each.

Eagertraveler · **Hmm -** 07-06-2011, 08:25

OK...Thank you. So for voice for all 3 and data for Italy my best choice would be?

For Italy Wind could be fine, but any option is OK. For the other countries I don't know, take a look at the other forum rooms

So... I have arrived home. Vodaphone is the right choice. It is valid for 11 months and can be used and recharged throughout Europe. One minor drawback is the inability to send international text messages. Worked well otherwise! Highly recommended.

You should of been able to send SMS internationally would need to put +1 for Canada +44 for uk +39 for Italy etc. But should of work.

You can refill Vodafone Italy cards using Vodafone UK refill vouchers, for example. Same with Vodafone Spain, etc...

You can send International SMS with Vodafone, but most of the times they never arrive to their destination number (or you never receive them if someone sends you one). TIM and Wind are much better, in Italy, for international SMS.
