Effendi,

How do I go about buying one of these sims in the USA?

I found an Italian WIND sim for purchase on the website below.

Will this sim work if I register for gprs access?

I'm not sure if I need a specific sim for gprs data access.

Thank you,
Rich

IMHO.... intouch has a reputation for high pricing.

There is a thread somewhere (buy and sell?) on how to purchase one of these. I think Effendi has given SPECIFIC instructions on how to sign up and how to discontinue.

That MEGA 300 looks pretty good. Is there any way for a non-Italian customer outisde-Italy to add credit to his account other than with top-up cards? I barely have enough credit to activate the MEGA 300.

I tired to add credit to my Wind SIM using two different American Express cards on Wind's e-commerce portal and all transactions were canceled by their fraud prevention team. According to the credit card issuer they haven't even attempted to authorize the transactions. Emails sent to the portal's helpdesk were never answered.

I never had a problem reloading Vodafone IT accounts using AmEx cards.

If I'm not wrong there were problems, like VladS wrote, but they were solved. We have to wait for Andrea's news about it, he's the expert about Wind and credit cards! ;)

This is just to confirm what a truly excellent deal Andrea and colleagues are on to with Wind Mega No Limit. The Mega 300 looks to be an excellent option too.

I'm really pleased to report that the WIND sim with Mega no limit has been fantastic. I used it during a recent trip to Europe in all sorts of places (from Finland to France) with no problems except occasionally having to guess which network was the right one to use for data!

Since then I've since used it back home in Australia too - it's way cheaper than our local provider (Telsta) charges for data even though I'm still going through their network (Yeah!).

Couldn't get it to work at all for data in South Africa though.

Only hassle is getting the wind website to accept my "foreign" AMEX credit card. It keeps rejecting it. Anyone found the way around that yet?

Thanks to the prepaidgsm crew for this fantastic service. :clap:

Hi all

I am going to get a Wind sim card but can I just ask do you have to change your GPRS settings in each country or does it automatically switch to the Wind verison of the countries network?

Also has anyone managed to use GPRS / 3g in India, Thailand, China or New Zealand?

Thanks

No problems for settings, just use internet.wind as APN, everywhere you go.
