It depends on which SIM you have.

Look at the cost for incoming calls in zone 5 for the type of SIM you have (rates range from $3.29 to $3.99). The best way to make sure you are looking at the right info is to log-in to your SIM account at ekit.com first.
I find the four different rate plans confusing. I decided that the Passport service was the best for my needs (due to free incoming in the US and Canada on calls made to Uk number).
