Roam4Zero?

[m3m3m3]

Does anyone have experience with this SIM?

Last time I went to Europe we used Ekit and it worked fine. This Roam4Zero seems to be cheaper and was wondering if anyone here had experience with it? Thanks in advance

Hmmm? Those usually start off, "Hey guys! I just found this really great...."

What country is the incoming number? IOM, Estonia, Belgium? The rates don't set my world on fire. People like Ekit because it is dual IMSI, has a nice feature set, tech support which answers, the phone, and will loan you a US number as needed for free (but at a $0.19 a minute call connect surcharge). Lastly, it doesn't have particularly difficult minimum usage requirements.

Roam4Less has a high rates for the US and Canada. My polling of other fairs made them see about average. Everyone has free incoming texts, there number of free incoming countries is a little low, but not horrid.

I like roaming SIMs for short trips into countries, as a hold over until I can get a local SIM, and/or for countries that put hurdles in the way of buying a local SIM. If you do a single country international trip on an annual basis, you are probably better with a local SIM.

I will be traveling to France, Italy, and Germany. And was looking at their rates to call back to the US. At $0.35 per min to call home, I thought that was relatively cheap, as ekit charges connection setup fee every time you call out (at least the one I had last time did)

But you brought up a good point of what country their incoming number is. I actually don't know.

My question was mainly reliability. If anyone had experience with call quality, etc

you might want to look at the travel sim card based in the UK. They also have a US number assigned where you can receive calls on for 23 us-cent. Outgoing calls to the US from your destinations is also 35 us-ct/min. As far as i read so far these cards are very reliable.

Your right on the setup fee. Another thing worth pointing out is that someone posted a link a while ago about where you could buy the SIM for US$9 off Ebay.

For EU use only, the new Maxroam is pretty good as well. Their rates to h--- for non-EU use.

except their stupid policy to charge from the second you pick up the callback - no matter if the other party will pick up or not. In my opinion that makes the card also useless for EU usage
