is it best to avoid movistar as they are part of Telefonica? Would Vodafone or Orange be a better bet.

there all the same , over priced and want your money , and wont to talk to u

We’ve had both Movistar and Vodafone pay-as-you-go and there’s not much difference.  Movistar’s coverage seems a little more reliable in our mountainous area, but that might not bother you where you are.

I have had movistar pay as you go for years,never had a problem.
They are all the same price.

1     Movistar   GSM
2   Vodafone   GSM
3   Orange   GSM   France T?l?com
4   Yoigo       TeliaSonera
5   Simyo   GSM   KPN
6   Euskaltel       Euskaltel

then you would have lot big chain supermarkets aswell like Euskaltel , el corte de ingles , Carrefour and Mercadona that opprate there own cell companys aswell

I’ve got a Vodafone pay as you go with the 60 for 1 ‘Vitamina’ package which means that I only pay for 1 minute of calls to make a call of up to 60 minutes to landlines and other Vodafone users.  Is the best deal I have found so far, but may not suit somebody who makes lots of calls to other networks…

Found Vodafone pricey but reliable, and helpful friendly staff with excellent English in our local shop,which was the clincher for me I’m afraid,
