Good point (although I think the set up fee is 0,19€, not 0,29€...

Also, perhaps if there is some competition, AT&T and T Mobile USA might consider lowering their asininely high unreasonable international roaming rates (and of course it bugs me big time when I have to pay this international roaming fee on a T Mobile US call when I'm roaming on T Mobile UK (or any other T Mobile owned carrier)...supposedly a big part of this international roaming fee is to reimburse the roaming partner for using its network...in other words T Mobile USA is reimbursing T Mobile UK....that's akin to me taking money from my left pocket and putting it in my right pocket (of course on the way it goes into somebody else's pocket me to pick up some lots of extra cash) and please don't try to tell me they are separate companies. At the end of the day, its Deutsch Telcom one way or the other.
