I am really in doubt that even if they do provide a free USA DID, that they would still charge only 50c incoming on that. If so, its easy to forward your own personal 3rd party DIDs from European countries (or wherever) to a USA number pretty much for free. My suspicion is that incoming calls on any DID that they provide will incurr at least a 20c/min surcharge.

Does anyone here actually have one of the new Maxroam provided DIDs? What do you get charged on that?

Before their rather enormous change in business plan, all the rates in their calculator used to be to their geographic DIDs. Now they are for a Belgian mobile. HUGE difference in my opinion, especially as they used to heavily market their USP which was that they were different from the rest as they would not issue you a strange number in Estonia etc., but instead give you a real number in your country.
