GBbeing 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!

GBWe rented Amigo cell phones because we … We rented Amigo cell phones because we did not want to risk losing our phones. Amigo phones worked like a charm. We inputted the guide's number along with the hotel's and friends and relatives. Returning them via the supplied box was a snap. Already recommended Amigo to a few people.

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.

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.

GBGreat 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!!
