Natasha Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 7 hours ago, tomgates said: Saw a sign on the door that they are closing permanently and suggested Andares or Tlaquepaque. Like seriously? I put $200 every 30 days for phone and data. Can any other place do this? Thanks. Are you sure the sign did not say "permanece" or "permanecen"........ because that would indicate they would remain closed.... for the day. Maybe the 2 other locations were going to stay open, holiday or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has that changed? Have done it with non-Telcel unlocked phone, just an Amigo chip, no hay problema. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Solar Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Here's how it shows up, on the last part of the Telmex landline bill: (this is for a 150 peso monthly amount, shown here w/o the IVA) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a nightmare! I sat in that office waiting my turn for over 30 minutes. Now, tt takesme less than a minute to do it on my BBVA (Bancomer) App. I also like Go Solar's suggestion to use Telmex. There are far easier and more pleasant ways to spend time than waiting to buy tiempo aire. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcelonaman Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 I take it they are open today? Another lakeside panic over ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostlylost Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Go to mitelcel.com open an account. Add money to your Amigo Plan from anywhere in the world using your credit card. Yes USA cards work. You can also add time to anyone else's phone number. IE send 20 pesos to your maid or gardener's phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me if the time some people thought the Coca Cola plant was vacating their spot in San Antonio because of the big sign out front reading "Vacantes," which actually meant they had job openings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn´t that more like what is called a "false friend" rather than a "false cognate"? Like the adjective "embarazada" and "embarrassed" which is commonly misunderstood around here. Also "parientes" and "parents". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vetteforron Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 I downloaded the Telcel app. Pay from there also, from my Bancomer app gives me the option to pay lots of services. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are going to be closed permanently the rest of the evening and on, until tomorrow AM. They will make a decision then whether to reopen or not, and that will be the policy on a day to day basis for the foreseeable future. The Casino will post a daily betting line on the over/under…..Ooops, I mean the open/close wager the day previous. I´m waiting for confirmation on this information from the Lake Chapala Reporter, courtesy of Lisa Jorgenson. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Solar Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 We could start a pool on which Telcel payment option the OP is going to go with, now that so many have been identified! Like the one for the rainy season start date. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
