SIM cards are linked to a specific city (so be sure to get one for the city you'll mainly be staying at), however you don't get a local number, all mobile numbers start with (+86)13. Receiving calls within your city is free of charge (no matter from where), elsewhere in China you have to pay a roaming fee of RMB 0.60/min (€ 0.06) from other mobiles and RMB 1.30/min (€ 0.13) from landline.

The credit server (checking balance, recharging...) is located at 10086, when entering the menu for the first time you are asked whether you want it in Chinese or English. However the English pronounciation is quite bad. Other that that, it'll cost you some money to access it too.
