Yep, but this SIM card is not available on Mobal site. Quite strange.
See what they offer. Benefits Cheaper than your own SIM * Cheaper national calls in the UK * Cheaper calls to your chosen "home" country * Free incoming calls whilst in the UK * No monthly charges, no contract, no hidden charges More convenient than pre-paid cards * No need for awkward "topping up" of call credit - you will not get cut off halfway through an important call * Unlike pre-paid cards, Mobell supplies free itemised bills, so you can easily claim your business expenses * Benefit from having your card and phone number before you leave home * Your Great British SIM will not expire if unused - so you never lose your number Plus * Worldwide 24-hour customer support * Great coverage - the Great British SIM covers 99% of the UK population * Provides access to over 320 GSM networks in over 140 countries * Convenient payment by any major credit card It Looks Like O2 rebrand. But I am confused by this. * Unlike pre-paid cards, Mobell supplies free itemised bills, so you can easily claim your business expenses |
Mobal is an O2 rebrand, there's really nothing different from what I can see... of course they want you to think it's so convenient, but actually it isn't very much...

Mobal is pushed by some, especially in the USA, who are looking for an international roaming experience and are not on a gsm carrier where they can simply use the international roaming capabilities of their gsm carrier as well as their gsm handset.
For those only using the phone for emergencies and an odd call or two, it is a solution. Indeed it is O2 UK rebrand and you do get the free reception of calls but only in the UK. You pay through the nose to make calls back to the USA or locally; even higher than the already asininely high rip off roaming rates charged by T Mobile USA and Cingular for their international roaming plans. It does come with a competitively priced true tri band phone (which is becoming more and more a problem in the USA as T Mobile USA no longer sells tri band phones with 900 but rather because it has some roaming arrangements in the USA to supplement its naitive coverage with roaming partners that operate on 850, the tri bands it sells are the USA 850/1800/1900..... In any event, I got a mobal sim, never used it, for the phone which at the time was a Nokia phone (easy to unlock) but it was unnecessary as the phone arrived already unlocked. The phones they sell now are not Nokias and alas are locked. |
