[quote=”tatlop22″][quote=”cristinam7″]My husband and I brought both of our At&t iPhones down with us in November. His was unlocked already so we went to Kolbi and purchased a SIM card and a number for about 20,000 colones. .[/quote]
I just moved to Costa Rica a couple of weeks ago and purchased a prepaid sim card for an unlocked AT&T iphone from a Kolbi store. I spoke to the guy in spanish the whole time and only paid 3mil colones ($6). Can’t imagine why it would have been $40 for your husband?[/quote]
Yes, 3mil colones is/was the price. The rest was toward his prepaid minutes. I got mine yesterday and it was just as easy as before.:D
My husband and I brought both of our At&t iPhones down with us in November. His was unlocked already so we went to Kolbi and purchased a SIM card and a number for about 20,000 colones. I just finished my contract and unlocked my phone so I get to go today to get my CR number. We found it very easy the first time so hoping for the same this time too. Oh! Another thing we did was transfer our US numbers to Google Voice so that our friends and family could still contact us like normal. It was only $20USD. Once you have your CR number, you can add it to Google Voice so that when people from the US call, they get you directly rather than having to leave a voicemail.
