I just signed up for a month plan from Personal. It should work well for international data. 15GB Per month in Argentina 3GB per month in the Americas and Europe Extra international data at 750 pesos per 200MB. Plan is around 3k pesos per month If you consider that I use around 4GB data per...

If you're not in the country and you don't have an Argentine card, aka bank account, then you better stay good friends with the person in Argentina. You can also use a foreign card.. with the oficial exchange rate of course.

"With data" is your problem. The combo of Google Fi and Voice on the same phone was your only "all in one pure cell phone solution" for a US number abroad.. technically t-mobile as well. There are virtual solutions like magic jack that others use (house phone basically) that work for...

Technically if you're ok with paying the 20 a month you keep your number. They are only cutting off data. I'm definitely going to just have a sim sent to the US in order to stop the data cut. But at the same time I'll remove the sim here. I don't actually need the number right now.

How is your Spanish? You won't be able to study Spanish and receive a study visa unfortunately. You're in a tough situation. Your only hope would be to find a university that doesn't require a test of your fluency. I don't know of any that exist. You're whole goal is dependent on getting a DNI...

Knowing Spanish is critical for any type of sensible route. It's simply not possible to get a student visa without being fluent in Spanish. All universities that have careers that will be applicable for a visa will require you to prove fluency if you come from a non Spanish speaking country. I...

You know that just makes too much sense. I refuse to do it. I'm going to go by the Personal store and get a monthly plan as well. According to the website, it's 750 pesos per 200mb for data within the Americas and Europe. That's about 16 bucks per GB. It's more than the 10 bucks per GB worldwide...

You still need at least temp residency and a DNI. And only the Argentine banks or online banks will do it. International banks like HSBC won't do it unless you work in Argentina.

You don't need permanent residency to open a bank account. I did it with temp recently.

No. In the email it says SMS and phone calls won't be affected. So basically you'd be paying 20 bucks a month for a data-less phone.

I may try to game the system and put the sim in an old phone and mail it to a friend the US so that it registers there and stops the data deactivation.

Well shit.. I got the email 12 days ago. Fortunately my main number is Google voice which isn't in danger. But now I'll have to get a local sim. Do any of the carriers here on real monthly plans offer international data roaming?

I have a question for both of you. How much are your bills averaging each month? If you open the Fi app is it noted there as well? I always had the impression that if they were still making money off you then they wouldn't cut service. Earlier today I did get a weird t-mobile alert that just...

It's not as complicated as that. There are cheap-ish courrier services. I think I paid like 80 bucks. Extra 20 if you want an emailed copy of the report. They also accept your fingerprints by scanned email. I used fingerprints from a previous report that I had a pdf of.. It's not like they...

It went up 2.5 pesos today. That agreement must not be working out lol. Seriously though we just have to wait and see. A month or so ago it dropped to 197, and then rebounded to a record high 230. Now it recently dropped to 197 again and stayed a week there before this small bump up. Let's see...

No test required

I miss big malls and strip clubs.

That sounds like a whole lot of work when you can just take 2 minutes to download the apk and not have to deal with an extra account you didn't want.

You have to download the apk and manually install the app. Only choice if you're not in the US.

Next day lol. You must have done that a long time ago. You'll be lucky if they come within the next month.
