Good luck trying to get the "Connected Holiday" version. I arrived 5 days ago in Lisbon and went to the store at Baxia-Chiado and they knew nothing about it. So I took the metro to the bigger Colombo shopping center store, took a number, waited 45 miutes to see a salesman, and he also knew nothing about it. He sold me a conventional TOP 96 card and told me it would allow calls to US numbers, which is wrong. It does allow roaming in the US, but of course that means calling Portugal numbers from the US, not US numbers from Portugal, which is what I needed to do and is advertised as being allowed on the "Connected Holiday" SIM. Both of those stores are listed on the MEO website as being ones that sell the "Connected Holiday" deal. If doing it again I would go to the store with a phone screen that shows the MEO webpage showing the Connected Holiday deal. I showed the various salespeople a piece of paper with "CONNECTED HOLIDAY" written on it so they could consult their colleagues, but it did not work.
