Yep, I got the SMS as well. While Solomo is a great all-rounder, I was hoping they'd really go for it and adopt 01051's outstanding international call rates. But they didn't, sadly. Now there's no SIM with rates to the US (or most of Europe) of less than 9 cents a minute; surely that's an opportunity for someone.

Why not make your own 5 cent/min SIM tarif to the USA?

"Avantaje" offers 4 cent/min Festnet (German landline) calls.
Then simply use one of the 1 cent/min dial-through services to the USA.

Voila! Your own 5 cent/min SIM tarif to the USA/UK/Europe!

The official site for Avantaje is here:
http://www.avantaje.de/

The same sim card (with 3 Euro call credit) can be bought for 4.95 Euro (+50c paypal fee) here:
http://shop.karttel.de/

I bought my card at Karttel. It arrived the next day. I was able to immediately activate the card online.

P.S. Don´t blame me when vistream assimilates Avantaje!

yeah, same problem here, just for thailand as main destination - which was 1ct/min on 01051 and 79/99ct/min on solomo.
Now i will for sure not buy another vistream-card. Noone knows when the next one will close down.

I will buy a Mobi card (runs on Vodafone) which has 8ct/min to thailand + 15ct setup fee.
