Hello,

the majority shares of UM have been sold to an experienced company in this scene. At the moment there are running a lot of negotioations between all involved parties and suppliers. A concrete schedule for a restart of the service cannot be given at this time.

As of 1st July roaming charges in the European Union are reduced again dramatically, you have to calculate very exactly, if your "normal" home-SIM-card couldn't attractive, while being abroad, too.

Since Vodafone UK shows, that its possible to offer incoming free calls in the complete EU for british Vodafone UK Prepaid-Customers, it can be foreseen, that incumbent players are willing to wipe out all these small Roaming-SIM-Companies from the Game.
