Hi

I want to buy an international prepay card. I've seen on this website several int. cards, but the decision is not easy.

The card should:
- Have a U.S. area code 001 (I am resident in Switzerland) or a double area code U.S. and UK
- Card validity: unlimited or 12 month expiry
- No roaming in countries like Switzerland, Italy, France, Germany
- Possibility to choose a phone number

What serious company and int.simcard do you recomand me ?

Thanks a lot

What it seems like you're asking for is a card without a premium for calling to and no charges for receiving incoming calls. Don't hold your breath. Someone has to pay the bills. A phone with a US number will have to charge you for receiving calls. SIMS with some European numbers also have a high premium attached to those numbers to support "free" roaming.

Well, ok...there is no US Card that matches my criteria.

And is there a card matching the following criteria ?

The card should:
- Card validity: unlimited or 12 month expiry
- No roaming for incoming calls to Switzerland and Italy

Thans for the reply !
