Movistar PAYG English Instructions

Mr_Pink_3

I bought a Movistar PAYG Sim card in Spain and all of the instructions, not surprisingly, are in Spanish. Surprisingly there are no instructions in English.

I know Ebay suppliers of these sims include an email with basic instructions in English which would be very handy.

If anyone is willing to forward this to me please post or PM me.

MOVISTAR PAYG: recarga.terra.es works for both Vodafone and Movistar though the site is in Spanish lets you top up by credit debit card.
OR purchase a voucher from a store then call one of the following:609 free phone from mobile in Spain ,1485 free phone from Spanish landline +34 609 100 609 if calling from outside Spain.

Probably not the answer youre looking for but...
I use a payg vodafone spain sim card.
you can topup using vodafone uk vouchers as if it were a voda-uk fone.
In fact i believe all voda vouchers from major european countries (uk,spain,holland etc) are compatible with each others fones/sims.
A truly global network LOL

Nor have I. It appears to work but no credit is applied nor is the credit card debited. I think it might be because we are unable to supply a Spanish passport or insurance card number during checkout?

Somebody once said that you can do this _but_ the amount you credit whilst in the UK is taken to be be Euros. In other words top up with 10 pounds and 10 euros credit appears on your Spanish Vodafone.

Can anyone confirm or deny this please?

Thanks.
