Túyo mobile -
07-12-2006, 21:24
Does anyone have opinions about this US operation from IDT? - it started recently, mainly aimed at the Hispanic market
http://www.tuyo.com/default.aspx?lang=en One option is 10c per minute calls, with 10c connection fee, options like calling card. Or 20c for 1st 10 min, then 10c. And a $5 a month bonus top-up scheme for the next few weeks ... |

It seems to be aimed at the Latino market. Doesn't look like there's a SIM-only deal.

It uses tmobiles network. I actually have this sim. They were giving it away for free, and it came with $10 credit and free shipping, so I decided to try it out. They also happen to have good international rates generally besides the excellent rates to S. America. For example, it's only 26 cents to callk a UK mobile and 1.5 cents to a UK landline. Plus airtime of course. My brother used this sim without any problems when he visited from the UK last month.

I got the SIM when they were offering it for free (promotion) with $10.
Have not used it yet. I think they have SIM only when you call them to order Current Prepaid: None Older Prepaid: AT&T wireless; TracFone; Telestet; Vodafone GR; Fido; SFR; T-mobile US; Tuyo, Cosmote Postpaid: at&t |

A friend of mine is visiting to CA in March and I think Tuyo looks pretty interesting since it's using the T-Mobile network and call charges are quite reasonable. Is it still possible to get one of the promotiononal SIMs? But even if so I don't suppose they'll be shipping them to Germany, maybe someone could help me out there? (Of course I'd reimburse for expenses.)

I have seen some tuyo sims with $10 credit show up on ebay. So, you may want to try there. I think the prootion ended last year. I will PM you if I am able to locate one

Alas, I have another questions/problem. Today I've received my package, however it states that Tuyo-Cards may only be used with a Nokia 6010, Nokia 6102 or Motorola V180. (Of course I don't have any of these phones.)
I suppose you've used your Tuyo SIMs with other phones and there haven't been any problems and Tuyo isn't really checking on this?
