GBSIM Card didn't work, haven't received response from company My rental SIM card didn't work in my phone. When I tried to call, the office was closed - the time difference made reaching the office almost impossible. When I emailed, it took a very long time to receive a response, and the response was not helpful. I have not received any response to my request for a refund, since the card did not work. After the first response, which asked that I let them know whether their suggestions worked, I never heard from them again. I am very dissatisfied.

GBpoor implementation My phone was not connected on the correct date. I stayed without communication for 4 days, until I received an e-mail stating that I should have returned the phone one day before arriving at my destination. The response was not apologetic, but curt and short to shut off and turn on the unit again. I should not be charged at all, for the inconvenience. I gave the number to a pharmacy for a large order of medicine, and they did not contact me since the phone was not operating. I had to redo the whole search in a different city, since by the time the phone was working, I was somewhere away from the original location.

GBWe 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.

GBNation wide coverage. I rented an unlimited data Sim card from Amigo. I had continual service from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and from the Negev to the Golan. The GPS on the phone was active throughout the entire trip. The service was better than anticipated, all though service was limited, as expected, in rugged areas.

GBTotal 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.
