I'm not sure this was the issue with the Isle of Man fiasco....when I was checking out rates on cbw and enlinea, I noted that rates to use their services from UK mobiles were extremely high and it simply wasn't economical to use them (that is CBW and Enlinea) to call out on an Isle of Man sim card. Likewise, it is not economical to call out on a UM+ card using cbw and/or enlinea as rates are in the vicinity of $0.50/minute for UK mobiles as opposed to $0.29 to German and French mobiles.
