Having lost a few hundred dollars in credit over the years when various global prepaids (e.g. EasyRoam, UM, 09) were discontinued, went bankrupt, expired, etc. I've also come to question the advisability of investing in prepaid roaming solutions. I now have my local SIMs plus the TelnaMobile and Mobal SIMs, both of which are postpaid with only a small annual outlay. Of course, I'm also not traveling nearly as much as I used to.
