I realize the world is not free but i love finding new tricks to save a few cents. And I hate being a sucker of FALSE advertisement practiced by Callblue.

I don't understand exactly how UM+ (or the defunct Freeglobalsim) can offer free roaming.

My guess is that Jersey and Lichtenstein have reciprocal free roaming agreements with 80 or so operators around the world. And these 80 operators assume that there are only a handful of Lichtenstein sim cards that are ever going to show up on their network.

With this line of thought, I imagine that once UM+ subscribers pass a certain volume of subscribers, the magic will be over.

Is that why the Isle-of-Mann free roaming sim cards have magically disappeared a month or so ago?
were there too many IOM sim card owners ?
