With Italian providers, you never can tell. The process of registration can be swift and done in 5 minutes or can last for over an hour. This doesn't so much depend on the operator, but more on the individual shop assistant and the rush in these stores. Avoid city stores in peak time. The same employees sell contracts too and have to explain the portfolio to customers. In some stores they give out numbers. But a sale before you can easily last for 1/2 hour.

You can have more luck in smaller stores in the suburbs or in shopping malls at opening or closing time. But this again depends on coincidence. The same applies to pricing for some of their activation fees.
