comments: "OK. I was skeptical--new phones, low rates, personal pickup and delivery? But it works! Onspanishtime was there at the train station to hand over the phones, and to give a remarkably clear usage lesson to 10 very jet-lagged visitors. For 15 days we made restaurant plans, stayed in touch with our Spanish friends, and kept our two rental cars reasonably coordinated even in rush hour Cordoba traffic. Costs were as advertised, including calls back to the States. Onspanishtime was there at our Madrid hostal to pick up the phones and provide some wise advice on Madrid taxi fees and a good place to have our departing evening meal. I'm a believer now.

comments: "Man, this was the best service ever. I called the day before I left for Spain. I was directing a group of 43 people for a one week tour and I needed two phones ASAP. The phones were delivered promptly, in perfect working order and were picked up at the airport as I was leaving. It made all the difference and enabled me to run a very successful trip. I recommend this service to everyone."

We had never tried this before, but it was a great solution to our problem of how to keep in touch with friends from a rented apartment that had no phone. Hope to see you again on our next trip!

comments: "I am absolutely addicted to staying in touch with people, and on past trips abroad I've always just accepted the fact that travel meant being out of touch... but on my last trip my friends and I rented cell phones from Onspanishtime (delivered and retrieved with no problem!) and the trip was so much better... just for the fact that were were able to communicate and stay in touch the whole time! Also, the price was totally reasonable, even for poor young kids like me! :)"

In fact I had to call him to find me, I was lost in the airport. Great service, staying in contact is great. My wife was able to call from the US with no charge to the Cell. Note, if you are calling from the US be sure you have a calling plan with reduced rates to Europe. Thank you Onspanishtime,
Ken"

The phone was good quality with exceptionally clear connections to the U.S.: no delays or echo. I was pleased with the rental experience."

comments: "what a great service, I was traveling with a friend who spoke no Spanish so we each had a phone and were able to keep in contact, also I had lived in Madrid for ten years, it was wonderful to be in touch with my friends without having to rely on message machines or having to stay in the room for fear of missing someone, and one last thing, we went to Restaurante Botín, the TUNA was singing and we called a friend in New York who had great memories of both the Tuna and the Restaurant, her getting to hear them sing was such a great shared experience. Gracias Onspanishtime."

The per minute rates are very reasonable, and are not much more than a US calling card, and you get the convenience of having a mobile. The best part is that all incoming calls were free. What a great deal! Thanks again Onspanishtime!"

comments: "Having a cell phone for my last two month stay in Madrid made living there so much easier. Not only could I be accessible to family and friends in the states no matter what our schedules, but I was able to contact my Spanish friends and classmates easily. Text messaging alone saved me a lot of money in phone calls. I can imagine going out without my cell phone in Chicago, but not in Madrid. And it was easy... ready and waiting for me when I arrived in Madrid with my phone number already in the hands of the people that needed it."

I rented the cell phone so parents could reach us in case of emergency and so students could reach me if necessary while they were at their family stay. I received my number before I left which made it much easier to distribute the number to students and their parents. The phone was delivered to our hotel when we arrived in Spain and picked up at the end of our trip. It was great! I will definitely rent a phone with Onspanishtime on my next trip."

He provides great ideas for local eateries in Madrid as well as explaining the phone's use. The phone was great and very easy to use. While buying time was a bit different than what we were used to, it couldn't have been easier. The pick-up and drop-off was very convenient. Having a cell phone was great, especially to make and confirm reservations and keep in touch with friends, both in Spain and at home."

The phone was really helpful! Onspanishtime was very flexible. He dropped the phone off at my hotel. I had some last minute change to plans for pickup and Onspanishtime met me in Puerta Del Sol at very short notice. I was very happy with the entire experience."

It came in handy for making and changing dinner reservations, confirming museum operating hours, checking on concert ticket availability, all with no hassles! Excellent service, just as promised, on time delivery and pickup at the airport. Couldn't have been easier, and a very reasonable price. Just wish Onspanishtime had a clone in Italy."

Services were very professional. Onspanishtime is very flexible having delivered my phone to the airport and picking it up at my Madrid hotel; both delivery and pick-up were on time. I had a Trium phone, which allowed me to receive e-mail and also acted as my alarm clock. Yes, it is true... incoming calls are free and the units, which I had pre-arranged with Onspanishtime, lasted for my 10 day trip. If you are English speaking, the phone will give you your messages, etc. in English. The phone also lasted 3-4 days on a charge. I will definitely use Onspanishtime.com for future travels to Spain."

We were SO pleased with everything surrounding the cell phone rental from Onspanishtime and On Spanish Time! The reception was crystal clear, even on remote winding mountain roads. Our friends who called were so impressed... nothing like the static and dropped calls we experience at home! Also, it was a joy dealing with Onspanishtime. His web site was extremely helpful for us, since this was our first visit to Spain, and we had specific questions that couldn't be answered in a tourist guide. The response to our queries was immediate. The pickup and delivery process was smooth, and Onspanishtime is a doll! Spain is one gorgeous country; enjoy! Omar and Linda Baez."

Onspanishtime is reliable and definitely not "on Spanish time". He is where he says he is going to be WHEN he says he will be there" I used his cell phone service and was amazed at how reliable the European cell phone system is compared to the U.S. where I am routinely subjected to "dead spots" and disconnects. I don't think Onspanishtime is responsible for the great system but it is a good way to bring me the service."

Hey Onspanishtime, I just wanted to say thanks for the great service on the phone we had while in Spain. I found the reception, pricing, and service to be exactly as you described. What I appreciated most about your plan was that I could receive incoming calls for free. This was invaluable to me as my office could call me every day. Because the calls were free to me and of relatively low cost to my company, I was able to take care of a lot of business that might otherwise have had to wait till I got back to the States. Additionally, because our business phone system supports outgoing calls from a remote caller, I used the times when the office called me to connect to an outside line and make calls to other business associates without paying the outgoing call rate. Thanks again for your excellent service. Gary & Family"

We hunted around for a long time for the best rates for a cell phone to use in Spain. Luckily I stumbled across Onspanishtime's site and ordered the phone. Everything was prompt and efficient, and the cell phone was easy to use and recharge. Buying extra minutes is a snap and they were quite readily available. We met at the hotel and had no problems with the phone or service. Calling home to the USA was a breeze and it was very comforting to know that we were reachable in the event of an emergency. If you want to save money, and need reliable cell phone service use Onspanishtime."

The rental of a phone from Onspanishtime made a great trip even better. My daughter and I were part of a school group escorted tour and it was so nice to have a phone so that those in our group as well as those who were back home in the US could stay in touch with us. The rates were exactly as advertised and it was VERY easy to add additional time to the phone. Onspanishtime was waiting for us at the airport and picked our phone up at the hotel just before our departure. I had rented an international phone from a US based company for a visit to Europe the previous summer, but I found this to be much more economical."

Amazing service. Onspanishtime dropped off and picked up the phones. All we had to do was use them. They allowed us to make plans, keep in touch, and call back to the State cheaply to check the nagging business voice mails. In these times of "travel uncertainty," the phones also gave us the peace of mind that friends and family could reach us directly by either calling or by way of text message. When returning to Spain, I'll definitely rent phones again from Onspanishtime."

I was so happy to find Onspanishtime's service on line before my trip to Spain. I was traveling alone to a music festival and needed to be reached by friends and family. While I was away, I had an unfortunate accident and broke my foot while camping. Had it not been for the phone, I would have had a long search for a payphone, Plus, the peace of mind that no matter where I was I could be called was priceless. I would recommend this service to anyone!"

On more than one occasion the phones helped us to find each other when we had inadvertently gone in different directions. Onspanishtime and his assistant Rachel were fantastic about making sure we got the phones as scheduled and also helped with directions on the Metro. I recommend that if you decide to rent 2 phones (as we did since we were 5 people not always traveling together) that you ALWAYS take both with you, so if one or two want to go faster or slower or whatever, you have a way to re contact each other.. We wasted an hour and a half at the Alhambra trying to find our restless daughter that could have been saved if we hadn't left one of the phones back at the hotel. (We had assumed that we'd stay together and one phone was enough). I also wished I had arranged for the internet service as I had to make MANY changes in our itinerary due to unforeseen delays and difficulties. Some I could do over the phone but some I had to do on the internet. The phones were a great deal, a great help, and were easy to use."

My main purpose in renting a cell phone in Spain was to keep in touch with my office and also make sure that frail elderly parents could get in touch with me at any time if an emergency would occur. The phone worked beautifully, the delivery and pick-up were easy and the cost was significantly less than other cell phones I might have rented from the US for which all calls would have had to go through England, raising the cost significantly. I found it very helpful to have and Onspanishtime more than responsive when I couldn't figure out how to add time to the phone and where I could get more minutes! Thanks. Andy"

I would happily do it again and rent from Onspanishtime. Onspanishtime answered all my questions via email before we left the US and the whole transaction was hassle free from our arrival in Madrid to the time we got our deposit refunded. It made the trip so much easier. People knew how to contact us if there were an emergency; we could call home without searching for a pay phone and mastering the arcane rituals in various cities and we could do it all without breaking the bank. It was also great when we needed to make hotel or dinner reservations and even more so when we arrived in a town with no clue where our hotel was or how to get to it. Thank you, Onspanishtime"

Great service ! Onspanishtime met us at the airport to personally deliver the phone, and provide a quick lesson on usage. When I later had questions about the usage charges, he helped by obtaining and emailing me the usage charge details. Excellent all round personal service, and a generally better deal than the clunky thing we had taken with us on our previous trip to Spain."

Fantastic deal. I have been traveling to Spain since before I could speak and I can't remember a trip more relaxing and convenient than this trip with Onspanishtime’s cell phone service. My wife and I could keep in contact with my family in Spain without phone cards and pay phones. Family and friends could contact us at any time. The phone was an excellent addition to our rental car adding peace of mind and convenience, especially when searching for hotels at crowded beach towns in the middle of August.

My wife and I sought a way to protect ourselves from becoming separated, to reach emergency services, and stay in contact with our interests at home while traveling in Spain. What we didn't want were the rental rates and commitments from most services that rivaled the cost of our two week stay. Onspanishtime made the choice easy. Not only were the costs reasonable but Onspanishtime's warm personal service removed any concerns we had about sending our money off into cyberspace. He personally delivered a pair of state-of-the-art phones that were better than ours at home and spent time with us at our hotel making sure we were totally comfortable in their use. He also personally set up my laptop to access a local ISP and save tons on dial-up charges staying up with email and contacts back home. To top it off, he again personally picked the phones up just before we left and spent time to make sure we were satisfied. Our deposit beat us home. I am truly thankful he and Onspanishtime.com were there. In my humble but accurate opinion no other service can compete with Onspanishtime.com; thanks Onspanishtime."

Onspanishtime was great to deal with. The phone was delivered to our hotel the day we arrived in Madrid and picked up the day before we left. The phone came charged and ready to go and worked perfectly throughout Spain, except for one time that we jokingly tried to get a signal from a mountain top in the Pyrenees. I would highly recommend this service to anyone who wants good, reliable, hassle-free phone service while traveling around Spain. Thanks Onspanishtime, Ben."

I had some misgivings about doing this rental over the internet but it was terrific. Onspanishtime brought the phone to the hotel on our arrival and gave us an intro.

It was a very pleasant experience dealing with Onspanishtime.

I was recently in Spain on business and needed the ability to stay in touch back home. On my last trip before this one, I rented from a local Canadian Company, but the charges were crazy. I think that in 3 weeks, my total cost was around $800.00. This time around I rented a phone through Onspanishtime and my total cost was around $150 Euro. The best thing about his services is that he will meet you at the Airport for both pick up and delivery of phone...very simple. The other great thing (not available on the Canadian Rentals) is that incoming minutes are free and when you are calling home, you need only call your toll free Canada Direct # and will only be charged long distance cost to your calling card with no outgoing minute charges on the mobile phone. We will be using Onspanishtime again on our return trips."

We rented 2 mobile phones from Onspanishtime.com during our June 2002 visit and it was a very smart move. The phones worked better than our USA phones. The service was excellent. Every representation made by the company was honest and accurate. I would highly recommend this company and I hope they branch out to the rest of Europe."

Purchased a prepaid SIM card for my unlocked GSM phone so that my daughter would have phone service while studying Spanish in Salamanca. Card was mailed to my home before she left. Service was great."

OK. So I really had thought I would not need the phone, but at my mother's request... er.... demand...("Mother, I'm almost 30 for crying out loud!")...I rented one from Onspanishtime. OK. So sometimes it pays to listen to mom. It was wonderful. Even thought I had not prepared and called Onspanishtime once I arrived in Madrid, he was there at my hostel on short notice, ready with a phone and plenty of awesome advice. I had just spent my first night in a horrible place run by two old bats, and he suggested that I head to Los Amigos...was the best advice. It is my favorite hostel anywhere. So, when I was ready to leave, he met me on my train platform heading to the airport. Perfect! I'll keep multimadrid.com in my favorites and stay in touch. Thanks for everything!"

Hey, I just wanted to say that Onspanishtime was an awesome person to do business with. I ended up getting to Madrid earlier than expected and I was able to email Onspanishtime while in Madrid and he hand delivered the phone within two hours of receiving my email! Extremely friendly and a genuinely nice guy. His recommendation for a Flamenco show turned out to be really great. All in all Onspanishtime was extremely flexible (even when I was returning my phone!) and helped make our trip enjoyable. Highly recommend."

Renting the phone was one of the smartest things we did. We were on a pretty whirlwind trip, not knowing where we would be next with no hotel info and it was great to keep in contact with our Spanish friends, our family and my work emergencies. We picked the phone up in Madrid, it worked in every city we went in North and South Spain and Onspanishtime even picked it up when we left. There was no extra hassles and everything was exactly as Onspanishtime said it would be. We would definitely do this again."

Onspanishtime's phone rental service is the best! He's professional, trustworthy, and just a great guy to BS with. An added bonus is that he's so knowledgeable about Spain, and in particular, Madrid. Setting up the phone rental through his Web site was so easy. The delivery and pickup of the phone was hassle-free also. We met Onspanishtime at the Plaza del Sol and then headed off to a cafe near the Chocolateria San Gines so that he could explain the details of how to use the phone. We didn't think that we'd use the phone that much, but we did. It came in quite handy for making hotel reservations and calling the States. In addition, the phone worked flawlessly! We had a newer model Siemens as described on Onspanishtime's Web site. Given another opportunity, we wouldn't hesitate to rent a phone from Onspanishtime again. Muchas gracias, Onspanishtime!"

We rented a phone from Onspanishtime for a couple of weeks. Everything was as advertised - phone service was excellent, Onspanishtime's personal service even better. He met us at our hotel in Madrid to drop and pick up our phone, always answered the phone when we had a question, refunded us half our unused balance per the agreement, gave us a credit when the car charger didn't work in car (charger was fine, but wouldn't work in this car's lighter socket), and he promptly refunded us our deposit when we returned the phone. And he bought us a carafe of sangria as a bonus ;) kidding. only caveat: signal was a little weak in Gibraltar. but then, I guess that's not in Spain, is it? sorry, I'm not leaving an email address, 'cause I'm paranoid about spam robots .. but this testimonial is genuine, and we heartily recommend Onspanishtime and his service."

Onspanishtime was great and had to make more than one trip to the airport to hand deliver it because weather problems caused 2 of my flights to get cancelled. I was so glad to have the phone in Spain for several reasons. First, I was a female traveling alone (well, I am still a female but I was traveling alone)and it made me feel safer Second, because I had the phone, the new friends I met could contact me.. And most of all, I purchased a house in the US while I was in Spain. All of the negotiations took place on the cell phone I rented. The deal would have never worked out and I would have lost this house if I had not had my phone."

As a person who does not have a cell phone at home, I was a bit afraid, but Onspanishtime not only gave me a mini-lesson, he also gave me an owner's manual to which I could refer when needed. It was absolutely indispensable for the work I was doing, coordinating transportation and restaurant visits for tourists in San Sebastian on a culinary tour. Especially when some of my fussier clients required many changes! I was grateful that the phone also worked as an alarm clock. The rates were very, very reasonable. I will certainly rent from Onspanishtime again and recommend OnSpanishTime to any friends I know going to Spain."

It was a must that I stay in contact with the office on my recent trip to Spain. I had talked with my cell phone provider here in the US about a phone rental for Spain but they were not very helpful and it was so expensive. There was a fee for everything. But I had to have a phone so I thought I’d try the Internet to see what else was out there and that’s where I came upon OnSpanishTime. I thought the site was a fake at first because it was so much cheaper and it offered a feature no other provider offered, free incoming calls. But after reading the web sites relaxed laid back prose I decided to look further into the rentals. I emailed Onspanishtime to get more info and our exchange of email is what sold me. He was straightforward, honest and responsive. We did the whole thing over the net. He answered my questions, I set up a paypal account, everything. I was flying into Barcelona so he had the phone sent directly to my hotel. When I got there, it was at the front desk all ready to go."

I rented a cell phone from Onspanishtime while I was studying in Madrid for the summer of 2002. Onspanishtime was very helpful in meeting me and getting me the phone when I arrived. The phone was very easy to use, no complicated functions like on some cell phones, and it came in handy a lot. Since my apartment did not have a house phone, the cell phone was my only means of communication with friends and family. Without it, I would have had no means in which to contact friends I had met, meaning I would have been stuck going out alone every night! Also, I provided me with a sense of security in the event that anything would have happened to me, i.e. mugged or something of that kind. Fortunately, nothing did happen, but it was nice to know that I could make an emergency phone call if necessary. Also, the program director of my program very much encouraged cell phones because it allowed him to get in touch with us when events changed. All in all, it provided me with freedom to explore the many things going on in Madrid"

comments: "What a fantastic service! The prices charged were at least half of what was offered by other companies. Additionally, OnSpanishTime is the only one - that I know of - who doesn't charge for incoming calls. I had a corporate group of 220 people in Madrid, with day trips to Sevilla and Toledo. I wouldn't have been able to coordinate everything with my staff and local vendors without these phones. In addition, the corporate executives were easily able to remain in contact with their office staff members throughout the US. Even while on hot air balloons in Segovia! I highly recommend this service to anyone - whether for business use or personal use - who needs to have a method of contact while in Spain. I didn't use the telephone in my hotel once! Thanks, Onspanishtime, for dropping the phones off, and picking them up, from the hotel. It really made things very convenient."

comments: "After being quoted exorbitant cell phone prices from a Spanish competitor, I found this site browsing the web. I rented 20 phones for about ten days in Barcelona from Onspanishtime. He was professional, on time and delivered exactly what he promised. Renting from "On Spanish Time was not only hassle- free, but more importantly, cost effective. I would recommend their services to anyone."

Ordering was a smooth operation and a pleasure to have completed before even leaving New York -- no airport errands upon arrival -- and to have it delivered was fantastic. I must thank Onspanishtime, who was very patient with this technophobe, and very helpful. Also, the price was right and the phone a good one. Sally Fisher"

comments: "We were two couples attending a World Conference in Barcelona. Onspanishtime got us two new cell phones in 24 hours after requesting them on-site --there was a shortage of phones because of the 15,000 delegates in town. He came to our hotel and gave us a thorough explanation of how they worked. Needless to say the phones came in handy to stay in touch through the Conference and the week after we stayed in Spain for vacations and traveled throughout Andalucia. Rates were reasonable. We used them to call several Europe locations and back home as well. The night before we left from Madrid, Onspanishtime arranged for a timely pick up. We were very pleased with his first class service."
