Andy -
What you say is correct (re: EU). I am in the U.S. and those rules don't affect users from here. Part of the reason UM (and to some extent the Estonian based services) are troublesome for U.S. users is that some carriers block calls entirely to +423 mobiles and the rest charge a small fortune. I gather this is true for EU users (and others) as well.
It would seem a UM, TravelSIM, MaxRoam et al service can compete for customers outside the EU and compete for everyone traveling outside the U.S. Is the major problem that most UM customers from the EU?

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.
