First trip to Coz in 11 days - thinking of bringing one of our old iphone 4s's downa dn getting a sim card and a prepaid card. Does anyone know how $$ this is? Our US plan is rather pricey to add in Mexico.

AT&T - but the issue seems more we have been grandfathered in for a decade on one of the "old" unlimited plans Every time we try to change, add, move - really, to do ANYTHING to our plans or phones - nope, can't do it unless you move to a current plan.
Find the main Telcel office, take a number (very important) wait in line, you must show a passport if getting the amigo package. Pick what you want for airtime and data then you will go to a cashier and she will put the pesos on your phone. You will have a local # that you can keep, you only have to put a few pesos on it once a year now to keep it and reactivate your credit. Set up an account on telcel website( google translate will translate most of it) and can do everything from there. I have had the same # for 4 yrs now. Don't try to do it at a kiosk until it's set up. I think it originally cost me $800p for sim, 500 min, and 4 gig data, now maybe $50p a year.
