A couple of questions re the Vinn wifi gadget please!
I went into a Turkcell shop yesterday to do my first top up since buying in August, i paid the money the chap gave me a receipt with a number on which he highlighted for me do i have to do something with the no or will my top up just go on, i gave him my sim card, they did not speak hardly any English in the shop, i wanted to ask if its 6 or 9 months you get before it becomes inactive, some folk say its 6 some say 9.
Thanks anyone   :)

I bought one on Friday but it cost me 270 lira for the sim, gadget and 10gb.  They advised me that my sim will stay valid for 6 months, i.e until April 16th 2016.  Just wondering, as I have brought mine home to uk now until I return in April, is there anyway you can use the gadget with a UK sim???? Will it matter if the gadget stays uncharged until April, and what is the minimum top up I would need to buy on my return ? thanks for any advice.

Gosh i keep getting told conflicting advice! Went into Turkcell in Gunlakbasi this afternoon both chaps spoke English, what i was told was i think! If i buy the 10 gb packet for 45 tl then it will stay active fir 6 months but i will lose the allowance,if you only top up like i did yesterdsy 12 tl thinking thiis will keep it live until April but that is no good it has to be the 45 tl top up...as a new sim card is the same price i will just buy a new sim card in April.
Its a bit of a pain and seems a bit stupid when i already have a sim card he laughed and said this is Turkey!  ;)

We use the Turkcell shop in the one way street in Fethiye, we bought our Turkish mobile from them and we get top ups there.  The lady in the shop speaks really good English.

Sue Mac, I use my Turkcel Vinn in the UK, I use 3G Store, no need to unlock, I purchased the sim and now purchased Gb online when I need it.   I used to pay for Gb in Turkey through my Garanti account. 
I celetaped the Vinn mobile number inside the back cover of the gadget, when I want to top up in Turkey I take the Vinn to any shop show them the number, tell them how many Gb I want, I get a receipt with the amount paid.  when I get on line and check the messages in the account I get confirmation there too.

The Turkcell shop outlets must be doing well from this as the devices are only 135tl to order online.  So a 142tl for a SIM and 10GB that you require to complete this package seems a little steep!!  But I suppose the benefit of buying it all together in one stop has its advantage, but also higher price!!  ;)
