Nation 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.

Very reliable company

This was the second time I used Amigo. Unfortunately, left the phone in the cab I took to the airport, so I actually didn't use it. I was lucky and the very sweet cabdriver held the phone for me for my return. I sent an email to customer service to let them know I had lost the phone, and a second one that it was found. When I called them upon my return, they were very nice, and I only was billed $2 a day for the phone rental (plus the UPS charges), not the full price because the SIM card was never used. My only complaint is the $10 each way UPS charge for delivery and return of the phone. I live blocks away from them, but their office is only open 9-5 pm Monday through Friday. But they are helpful, gracious and I definitely would use them again in the future.

poor 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.

I had trouble with the sim card I rented to use in Israel.

I rented a sim card for use in Israel for 2 weeks. The plan included unlimited calling and 3 GB of data. The dialing worked but the data never worked. A representative of Amigo in Israel brought me 2 more sim cards. I had to wait till the next day because there was some problem with the activation. When I was told which one to use the data still didn't work. I was told that they would work on it. It never worked. I don't know if the problem was the sim card or my phone. With all the moving of different sim cards in my phone, some pins under the sim card got damaged and I have had to give my phone in for repair. I think that the next time I need a phone in Israel I would not rent a sim card but a whole phone. There was no friction, I think they tried to fix the problem but I was very frustrated with the whole situation.

Daily cell phone plan in Israel

I am usually satisfied with Amigo service, and recommend it readily to all my friends and associates when they travel, but this last trip using Amigo was exceptionally disappointing. I run a business in New York, and have always had adequate service with Amigo. During my last visit, service was spotty, and I constantly lost calls. The sound/reception of voice calls was excedingly poor, almost inaudible, even with the volume high and my moving to a private, silent location. I have been receiving the same, old brick phone, that technologically dates back over fifteen (15) years! I cannot continue to travel with these phones, if I am to successfully keep in contact with my business and clientele.
