First, define what is "the best" for you ie. which costs are the most important : national calls, calls to your country, calls to other countries, voice mail, data transmission, anything else... Also, do you want to receive calls from Poland or abroad? Then I'll be able to help you.

Is there any reason to stay away from mBank Mobile?

Yes, it's basically an on-line offer (designed as a kind of loyalty program for customers of an internet bank mBank) and it's hard to buy a SIM card in a shop. Those SIMs are available mainly from some second-hand mobile shops but there's no official list of them. It's also hard to buy a top-up for mBank Mobile.

Mova is now the best one with the national rate 0.25 PLN/min (about 0.061 €/min at the current exchage rate) whereas most operators offer SIMs with the base rate 0.29 PLN/min (0.071 €/min). But again, Mova is a virtual operator of the Carrefour supermarkets and SIMs can be bought in Carrefours only (top-ups are availably also from top-up terminals elsewhere).
