Enitel cel phone costs double?

Submitted by fyl on 27 February, 2007 - 12:50.

My cell card was expired. I was reasonably sure it hadn't been 90 days and I always buy the 90 days for $20 cards. Well, just put a new $20 card in and it is only good for 45 days.

So, yeah, the price of cell phone service just doubled.

Cell Phone...

The reason they did that is because a whole lot of people use the phones just to receive calls.....

Exactly

That is exactly why it matters to me. So, that makes sense--because people were using the service they offered, they doubled the price for it.

me too

I bought one the other day and the guy told me it was good for 60 days.

Vamos a ver, at the end of 45 or 60 days I may be back sitting in the enitel office for 2 hours to see if they will accept my ID to get the privilege of paying 12 bucks a month for 40 minutes of service.

The last leg of this story was when the nice lady at Enitel told me I need 2 forms of ID, my passport being one of them. The Managua office didn't answer the phone to tell her if they would accept a US drivers license, so she told me to come back the next day with 2 paid phone bills, 2 paid electric bills, my passport, US drivers's license and $27. Didn't do it, bought a card, have I told anyone lately how much I hate cell phones?

Good news, I got Cable TV on only the second try! First try the nice lady said something to the effect that because I'm renting I can't get cable, go she my landlady. Saw my landlady, she gave me a rental contract. Bingo! that's just what the cable lady wanted! 200 cords hookup fee and 13 bucks a month wins me an electric babysitter and free Spanish lessons reading the subtitles!
