"Manx" means "pertaining to the Isle of Man"
Now seriously - look at
http://www.prepaidgsm.net/en/international.html or on the thread pinned on tiop of this section of the forum and you'll see the answer.
Among "international SIMs" there are many whose "home country" is the British crown dependcy - Isle of Man. I call them (in short form) "Manx SIMs". They have the country code +44 (like all UK numbers) but, to be more precise. their "full" prefix is +447624 (i.e. Manx mobile phones in the British numbering scheme). Their coverage is basically the same as the list of roaming partners of the local GSM operator Manx Telecom.
When you call +447624 from abroad (=not from UK ), you usually pay the same rate as the rate to other UK mobile phones. IF you find a callback service with a good rate to +44 mobiles, you'll have what you want. I can't recommend any...
