Tru has been good for me, as I travel a lot from US to UK. Has worked as a spare for family visiting in the US as well.
The new rates are clearer, at least. I did notice that calling from the US to European cells is really expensive, 40c/min, most discount services are 12-20c.

Tru has alienated me by reducing their roaming rates in Europe for Europeans, but not for anyone outside. Only company to discriminate that way. Then they ran a blog post touting their faith in free markets to bring down rates, when it's clear that only the new EU regulations forced them to. Chutzpah, we call it.

I've decided to try Piranha (see separate thread under international sim cards)
