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!

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!!

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.

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.

GBOverall Very good Overall Very good. However, both SIM Cards did not work "out of the box" and required several calls to customer service to properly activate in order to work properly. Secondly, when trying to reach customer service multiple calls were required and regardless of the day, or time of day, it was nearly impossible to get someone to pick up. Additionally, their on-line chat NEVER worked. Once you did get someone on the phone, the problem was quickly resolved.
