Total disaster I ordered phone from AmigoUS for my wife for her trip to Israel based on good experience my daughter had for similar circumstances. This time around it was real disaster from the very start. Phone I got was epic old in any dimension and had “bug” in it. So, it took real afford to figure it out and reprogram it. It seemed working but to check it you need to be in place/Israel and over there it (phone) was DEAD on arrival for reason I would never know (battery or charger or … who cares now). I contacted customer service and was surprised how nice and willing to help was person I spoke with but with all his efforts it did not work out. I would never again use this phone rental service and would not recommend it to anyone.

Great Service I have used Amigo phones two or three times in the last few years. The customer service reps have always been helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. The service is great in that we are given a US number (free calls) and an Israeli number (free for the traveler making in country calls). I haven't shopped the prices but I believe they are quite reasonable. The SIM card arrived in time for the trip. During my son's trip last month, he was blocked for some reason from using the phone and could not communicate except for What's App. I called customer service in Atlanta and they identified the problem and within minutes the phone was working. Great job!!

being stuck in Israel without a phone. I rented a phone from Baltimore, which I have done many times before, only to find when we got to Israel the charger part of the phone was broken. I called the American number twice before someone in Israel called us back only to be told he couldn't help us as he was out of phones and it would be about a week before he might have one available. Not acceptable!

My experience I found that the wifi device option is not really practical as the power is drained very quickly when it's used in the manner of piggy backing off your existing phone. I would recommend either renting an actual separate phone or a sim card for an unclocked phone.

We were told that we just need to plug… We were told that we just need to plug in the sim card and everything will work . That was not exactly how it happened. We needed several calls to customer service until everything worked. They were very helpful but it was a frustrating experience not having the service we were promised at the right time.
