The YOIGO card I got for €20 does 3G and had €20 of credit on it.
Charges for use of 3G seem to stop after €1.20 each day (or less if I
only use it a very little). I saw a YOIGO advert on a phone shop in the
building at the end of Plaza Mayor, where the Caja Extremadura building
is, but I don't know if they sell them there.
