I had to reload it and you can't go to an entel store to re-load. You need to find a grocery store, or small phone dealer that sells reloads.

Other than that it worked all over quite well. Worked very well on Easter Island and had no issues in Punta Arenas/Puerto Natales....and no there's no service in Torres del Paine but why would you want to be on your phone in such a beautiful place (I checked when leaving on the bus).
It has been more than a year since last post. May I ask if there is any more recent updates?

I know there are other popular plans (e.g. T-Mobile Simple Choice, AT&T...) but I am a TM pre-pay customer and I don't prefer to switch to those plans just for one or two international trips. Thanks!
