Not necessarily. Remember that Monaco mobile = Kosovo mobile & Hop :).

No, it's impossible :P

Hop has a virtual prefix of Monaco thanks to Areeba (ex Spacetel Ghana) while Monaco Telecom has coverage only in Kosovo, not at home.
In Monaco you have only the coverage of french networks (in front of the public pool Wind too :D ), so it's impossible that you can pay there and not in France.

Hmm, but my guess is that the price list may be arranged by prefixes, not actual coverages :). Of course, I don't still know then what to think about RSM...

The Mexico (and Argentina) prices are quite incredible - more than just about any national roaming sim. If it's accurate of course - they may have just misplaced the decimal point. :-)

Coverage in Tokelau is impressive - even gsmworld doesn't know there is a gsm network there...

Why do these roaming sims always get launched by companies with zero knowledge of geography and phone networks, with websites full of errors? Makes it impossible to trust anything they say.

Any idea of what this means? I don't recall ever seeing any other operator having a "separate sms number"

Also surprising to me!

AFAIK incoming data and fax calls require extra numbers in GSM. But SMS?

Even http://www.cellular-news.com/coverage/ (which contains info about non-GSM/3G networks too) doesn't know about any mobile netwrok in Tokelau :D. Perhaps some NZ op works there?

Don't care about geography. It was just funny to me when Hop assigned Slovakia nad Ukraine to Asia :). But but telling rubbish about impossible roamings is in fact horrible.

The old Buytel had already this system

Your number for incoming calls and a FL1's number for sms

No... the incredible thing is that I remember very well that Tokelau last year decided to decline a mobile coverage because not useful for them. And now it's very nice to read about international roaming there :P

Also in Tokelau you can use satellite system :bye2:

maybe Tokelau is NZ coverage - the Virgin Mobile Australia website lumps them together anyway
