Do you have to have a bank account for a pay as you go internet dongle?
My mum in law went to movistar at Gran Sur yesterday and bought 2 PAYG mobile phones and enquired about the internet dongles , they said you had to have a bank account! I thought that you would have to top it up the same way you would top up a mobile phone.Is it just movistar that require bank accounts or do the other providers require the same?

They are getting round to getting a bank account but havent opened one yet

If you go to the Vodafone shop with either yours or your mums passport that is acceptable.
I bought a PAYG dongle from there a few weeks ago, 35e and got 20e credit on it. I topped up last week and for 19e you get up to 1gb for a 30 day period, need to take dongle with you for topping up.
We use the one in Las Chafiras, near McD's. Girls in there very helpful and also an english girl works there.
