I'd been in Chile for a week. Before arriving there, I checked the websites of all operators (and also this wiki) and I chose "Movistar", considering its coverage as well as the values ​​and promotions of the prepaid plans for the time I would be in Chile (7 days). There are several stores and kiosks that sell SIM cards from Entel, Movistar, Claro, WOM in downtown. On the first day, I went to two official Movistar stores: in one of them, the attendant said to me that officials stores don't sell pré-paid plans, and I could only buy a SIM card at street kiosks. In another store, the clerk informed me that he could sell me a "chip" only if I would pay it with a credit or debit card (not in cash). In a kiosk in front of one of the official stores, I bought a "chip" for CL$ 2,000.00 - in cash. I did the activation process alone, and it took approximately 10 minutes, not being asked for RUT or any extra information (an SMS informed that I need to register it if I would want to use it for more than 30 days). The "chip" already came with the "Pre-plan" (2 GB of data, 200 local mins, valid for 7 days) activated, so I did not have to make any extra top up. The Movistar coverage in Santiago and Vina del Mar/Valparaiso is excellent. No complaints.
