Why buy a SIM and Phone package for Spain?

If your trip to Spain is longer than a month or if you are a frequent traveler, we recommend that you purchase one of our package deals rather than rent a cell phone for Spain. The rates and the service are exactly the same for rentals as for purchases including, rates to the US and Canada just $0.10 per minute (plus a $0.45 connection fee per call) and local rates are $0.12 per minute. Incoming calls are always free.
