Anybody from Canada try to do this before getting to zihua?
Tried the site I used to use but won't process now.
Thanks

I never had luck doing it from Alaska but there maybe a third party system that you can use to recharge outside of Mexico.

It appears that way but so far in the U.S. and fees to do so.

I have never had any luck trying to recharge via their website. My VPN starts screaming at me whenever I follow the link that Telcel recommends. Paranoia then gets the better of me and I just wait until I can find an OXXO.

Before I left Canada I logged onto recharge.com and topped up my telcel SIM card. Easy peasy took less than 5 minutes. Then after I arrived I went to the Telcel customer service centre to register my cell, that took about 20 minutes but pretty much straight forward.

Thanks Lizzie
The recharge.com will be the new place.
The registration we did before coming back in the spring.
