Of course, it isn't. Not even a part of EU/EEA/NATO, however...

...both IoM and Channel Islands use 44 country code and calling their phones from not-44 numbers usually costs the same as calling UK numbers .
If a Manx SIM is "targeted" to non-UK customers (like NG Travelphone, Telestial Passport or Ekit seem to be US-oriented and globalsim.net is mainly for the Germans ) then (from the point of view of those countries) +44 7624/7924 numbers are just UK mobile numbers...
