To do this for Italy is very tricky and has proven to lead to a lot of misunderstandings. There may be activation rates (let's call them "recommended") by the operator, but many operator's shops have proven to add a (more or less fictious) surcharge. So when we actually quote an "official" activation rate here, it's often impossible to get as shops want to get some extra fees (expecially if you come from abroad). That's the way it is in Italy. For instance, the SuperWeb New of Tre which is the base plan for the SuperInternet data packages is officially for free. If you have an Italian address, you can order in online on their website your SIM for 20€ charge but coming with a 20€ credit preloaded too. So it's essentially for free, but I guess, that many shops will charge you more for activation. So which activation fee shall be added???
