Argentina Prepaid SIM Card
While walking around Buenos Aires, you've managed to get yourself involved in a game of street football with some local kids. Suddenly, the kids are shouting "Maradonna!" and pointing at a man watching the game.
You've heard that name before, but you're unsure whether it belongs to a famous soccer player or a dangerous drug lord.
Better call Uncle Pedro to find out.
For those times when you just need to get in touch with someone in Argentina or back home, prepaid SIM cards offer you the benefits of using your own phone at local rates. Simply replace your SIM card with a prepaid Argentina SIM card and you will be set up to make all those important phone calls and send quick messages across the world, without paying excessively high roaming costs.
What our partner Telestial says
A prepaid Argentina SIM card with an international cell phone is the most convenient and economical solution for staying in touch while in Argentina. All incoming calls while in Argentina are FREE, regardless of where they originate. Pay the local rate for local calls and use a cellular phone in Argentina like you do at home. And unlike home, your Argentina SIM card and cell phone service is prepaid so there is no need for a contract.
The SIM Card for Argentina includes:
- 30 AR ($10.30 USD) starter airtime credit
- Free incoming calls
- A local phone number while in the Argentina
- Calls billed in 30 second increments
- Voicemail
- SMS (text messaging) - MMS
- GPRS - High Speed Data

Please Note:
Your Argentina SIM Card will require a SIM-unlocked GSM 850/1900 compatible international cell phone. If you do not have your own international cell phone, Telestial has several compatible models available for your review and consideration.
