First of many thanks to Tuscanhills/others for putting this thread together , am using my laptop with unlocked Vodafone card with Tim sim for the first time no problems just having to get used to GPRS rather than 3G . I bought the sim at the TIM shop in Amandola showed the gentleman the paperwork with the Tim offer of 25€ weekend and evening but ended up being charged 45€ my Italian was no were good enough to understand the extra 20€ , thought it may have been because this was the first purchase and would be 25€ when topped up . On the following Monday in the Geometra`s office the Geometra asked about using a laptop with the data card , as i showed him it became obvious that the Internet connection was live when connected although i assumed that it would not be as i had paid only for weekend and evenings . Is it possible the extra 20€ was the daytime TIM tariff and both were added to my sim , thanks for any help , Geoff .
