1. It doesn't pay to use any of the "Int'l" SIM cards in the U.S. Most have to charge $1.00 to $1.50/min. Prepaids here are less than 25 cents and most are under 15 cents/min.
2. Calling an Italy landline would be under 3 cents/min. on most dial up LD carriers like pingo.com and onesuite.com. To call a mobile is less than 25 cents. IOW, all you would spend to call Italy from you U.S. prepaid SIM is the airtime + 3 cents. If there were a payphone handy, you dial a toll free number (no coins needed) and pick up a dial tone, enter your PIN number and call Italy for 4 cents. (You wouldn't need to enter a PIN when calling from your cell once you set up your LD account with most all LD dial around carriers.

Make use of T-M's UMA/wifi free calling from any place in the world with access to wifi. I use an LG G6, wife an S7)
A/o Oct 20, 2013 no need for intl prepaid as T-Mobile U.S. includes voice roaming at 20¢/min (in and out)., unlimited text (in and out), and unlimited data in 140+ countries.
My Plan -[6 lines] U.S. T-Mobile unlimited minutes (incoming and outgoing), unlimited text, fast data on each line. that $145/mo. total! . (In U.S. no surcharge for calling a cell.) If a line exceeds 2G of data in a month, pay $10 more for that line. [That only happens a couple times/year.
