Can't UK (and all users in "Euro"" countries) now roam in each others countries very cheaply? Maybe I have misinterpreted what has happened "over there".
U.S. users can now roam 95% of the time since T-Mobile has "free" roaming (unlimited text and data) and 20¢/min voice.
Truphone obviously has to focus on heavy (business) users outside the U.S.- and focus on UK and other travelers going to U.S. and other countries. I wouldn't think it pays to deal with a consumer type that travels only once or twice a year and racks up minimal bills.
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.
