I haven't used this particular one but some time ago I got a "GoSim" which was similarly advertised.

 

The problem with it is that, although you save by getting "free" incoming calls, the caller has to ring a "foreign" mobile number to call you. As anyone ringing us was likely to be an elderly mother / in law they would be the one's stung for the cost.

 

We used up the credit that came with it and then ditched it.

I belive that with this one they ring the UK number they give you on the SIM and it costs them a local uk call.

Just had a look at their site yes you can have a UK number or a local number in country of your choice. With a UK number it's free to receive calls in Europe but to make calls it's 34p/min dearer than most UK networks since charges dropped in July.

My network is 28p/min to make calls & 7p/min to receive, I think most networks are similar as they have been capped by the EU. If I want to make a long call I seek out some free wifi and use Skype or Viber.

 

If you are looking at long distance travel far cheaper to buy a local sim.

"Thank you for your email.

 

With regards to your query, please find the following rates in order to use the sim card Spain,

 

With local access number:

 

 

To make calls to UK landline & Mobile: £0.15/min

 

To receive calls: £0/min

 

Outgoing SMS: £0.09(one text includes 160 Characters)

 

Incoming SMS: 0£

 

 

 

Without local access number:

 

 

 

To make calls to UK landline & Mobile: £0.34/min

 

To receive calls: £0/min

 

Outgoing SMS: £0.010(one text includes 160 Characters)

So if you use the Spanish number it costs 15p per/min

 

How's this compare to other????????????
