Hello,
FreeTimeTelecom is in "status nascendi", the main aspect seems to me voice telephony at the moment, but Data will follow.
International Data Prices are extrem high and there are less to no ways to come around this.
Voice calls can be reduced by the "Call Back Thing" extremely, but mobile data not. The network operators argue that setting up the new faster data networks, backbones etc. is cost intensive.

The setting up of the sim card is simple.
Setup your own account on freetimetele.com - they need a working e-mail-adress and a password (don't forget it
Then they ask for the SIM-Card-ID-Number and the SIM-Card-PUK (printed on the card'sframe. That's all.

You then can choose from a list of numbers and get the following:

German Number +49 1570 360 xxxx (located in the network of "Telogic" (formerly known as "vistream" - see Home - Telogic or - Germany - Telogic )

Liechtensteinnumber +423 661 00 xxxx

Remark that in both numbers xxxx are the same numbers.

e.g. +423 661 00 1234 and +49 1570 360 1234

the US-Number (+1 940 yyy yyyy) is different.

I've tested the card in spain and can say the following now:

The german IMSI works only in Germany (Display shows "Germany") in all other countries the Liechtenstein SIM works (Display showing "Global"), the US I couldn't test yet, but I would assume, that in the US the Liechtenstein IMSI wouldn't work, but the US.

you should note that the SIM-Card works with sophisticated form of SIM Tool Kit Application, which could crash the software of some older Nokia phones (don't worry, the phone will work with your previous sim cards again
