My new UM+ card arrived this morning via regular airmail.
Plan to check it these evening and will report back on UK coverage...

Later - works flawlessly on all four UK GSM nets (Vodafone, O2, Orange and T-Mobile). Caller ID present on outbound calls (which are processed rapidly via the usual callback options).
Phone flashes up balance remaining before callback initiates - nice touch - and call quality is excellent (much better than the +42 service). Also the balance enquiry service trips a text with the balance, instead of voice, and tells me I have 364 days left on my credit.
I transferred 65 of my 68.10 euro balance over to the new card and both are now working in parallel.
So far - so good. Off to Paris on Saturday for 10 days, so the cheaper calling is really helpful.
