Billym -
One point I .can answer - Most, if not all, international SIM card sellers are simply resellers and don't own the numbers. Thus they can't give you the number.
I am sure United Mobile, Travel SIM's various outlets, etc. don't make it possible to take your number somewhere else.
I just went to CB's web site. Explanation of their temporary problems seemed clear to me.
I went thru something like this a couple of times with other services.
1. When DSL first was announced in Ca. years ago, we had to pick an ISP. The install was handled by the phone co. Since I was an early adapter, 6 people came out, mainly as a training session.
A year later, the ISP I had chosen went out of business.
2. When we had to pick an LD carrier, all was fine for years until they suddenly went out of business. I didn't lose any money, but suddenly had to instruct everyone how to use a "1010" dial around code to place LD calls during the couple days it took to change to a diff. LD provider.
In your case the provider is offering to, in effect, make you whole. The logistics in trying to simply refund relatively small airtime credits to numerous customers would be prohibitively expensive.

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.
