Did you notice that Truphone charges 0.34€/min instead of the 0.31€/min published on their website?

I am not aware that Telna also gives UK numbers. My sim only has a US number.

I am sorry. I don't know to what you are referring? I have never seen Tru rates in Euros before.

Since I live in Italy, Truphone charges me in €. In the rate checker, try to put "Italy" in the field "I live in", and put another country in EU. They say the cost is 0.31€, but they still charge 0.34€.

OK. Thank you. Have you asked them? I suspect they know the answer.

Had this issue with them for voice and text while in the UK... Sent them a spreadsheet with the call details and corrections and they refunded me the difference with no issue. Would like to think that they would have fixed this in their billing system. Not all that professional when you have to keep them honest...

I tried to make some other calls and they've been billed correctly (I haven't told them anything).

Anyway, another thing I noticed: reduced rates for Netherlands. Are them true?

Calling: 0.20€/min
Receiving: 0.06€/min
SMS: 0.12€
Data: 0.13€/MB
