I am planning on buying an LG970H or similar smartphone. Is there a Tecel Dealer that will program the phone in english and install english apps? A lakeside.

That's Telcel. They probably will. Try phoning them. They may have answers to your questions. They're in the telecommunications biz and like to make $ off of people. And yes, there is "A lakeside.".

There is a TelCel shop tucked in right behind the Casino on Juan Alverez (west of Bugambilla Plaza). I have recently used their services and yes they will program everything for English.

Many complaints about them but I never had any problems with them and use that store. I speak Spanish so I do not need any help programming the phone, looking at my messages or putting a card in there, never used them for that.

I'd suggest that the next time you need them to add minutes to your Amigo plan, that you dial *333 on your phone and check your balance. Next, go into the store and have them add 100 pesos to your plan.

After you leave the store, recheck your balance to confirm that 100 pesos were added.

U notice they talk fast... very friendly... we went there for a plain jane cell phone/ no camera.... $900. pesos
they will supply you with curp number ( probably someone elses )

walked out.... went to telcel place on main street in chapala... across from bus station ...... same phone... $630. pesos
you have to get your curp number ( free )... available in ajijic, on colon st. directly across from banamex.....

I thought the CURP requirement had been discontinued, and the data base expunged. That's what I read in the Torreón paper a couple of weeks ago.

Nope they used someone's CURP # when I bought a Telcel simcard the other day. I received a text telling me my phone has been activated with such and such CURP #!
