Guys,
Can someone please advise me on where to get a single american prepaid SIM card that offers good international roaming...?
I was using one before but they are no longer active talking about upgrading their system for a better quality service and its taking forever to come back.

please anyone, who can help with where to get and please I do not need the dual number service as offered by callkey and others.

Thanks guys.

Almost all SIM cards are now dual number. Truphone has a single US number available. You might want to converse with them to double check if it can meet your needs and their rates are OK for you.

Probably you should just get a dual number one--don't tell anyone the second number .

AFAIK there is no US SIM that will roam internationally (unless you mean Canada and Mexico.) AT&T prepaid won't roam to any international location. T-Mobile will roam in Canada and Mexico, but nowhere else.

It's not like European SIMs which generally will roam internationally.


Current SIMs:

T-Mobile US (prepaid)
T-Mobile NL (prepaid)
Fido CA (prepaid)
Orange IL (prepaid)

NettBrit is likely referring to TelnaMobile. Yes, they were actually using an Israeli provider, but just give out a US number that is forwarded to it.

Yea talking about Telnamobile. I had one and then I forgot my phone at the airport in spain and now I have a trip to make and I am stuck.
I really need one that provides a single US number for inbound and outbound.

I have Telnamobile as well. I am not sure there is any international sim that actually uses a US number as the "real" sim number. They all use an international sim (including TelnaMobile) and then give out a US DID/number that is forwarded to the sim. So, any of the international sims out there maxroam, ekit, etc. all do the same thing. I think Telna showed the US number as the caller ID for outgoing calls, however I can't remember for sure.
