What is this 07755.... number for making cheap calls via UK TM SIM? Since I'm on a grandfathered U.S. TMobile plan for intl. roaming, incoming is only 30 cents. For outgoing, calls i might try to use my TM UMA/wifi service which would mean calls to U.S. would be free. (Might have to be in UK next week.).

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.
