Wind Roaming Offer

I only just noticed this, and wondered if our Italian friends had seen it

Perhaps it's been there for a month or two, and maybe you already knew

It seems to say 10 cent per minute calls back to Italy, after the first minute, while roaming on Starmap Alliance partners (not Ukraine, so I'm safe from Effendi saying it's too late). Offer until September, and is it ?5 charge for 30 days?

Even for the non-Italians, it might be worth using a calling card with an Italian access number ...... though it would work out about on a par with UM/CBW


It's interesting to see more and more promotional roaming offers like this. It shows how cheap the networks can make things if they try, and I hope it will encourage them to lower charges permanently

No, this offer goes with every network. You have simply to remember to call via USSD code (*124*) excetp on Starmap partners where you can call directly too.

Pay attention, you always pay the first minute (1/2/3 ?) at your tariff. After the 5?/month.

So it is - I didn't look carefully enough at the translation

With that higher first minute cost, it looks quite similar to Vodafone Passport
