Well, compared to Swiss tariffs toggle was indeed extraordinarily cheap but Switzerland can't be a benchmark for most EU countries, where mobile terminations rates are in the lower single-digit cent range and where a final subscriber price of € 0.18/min is definitely expensive, at least for domestic calls (e.g. that's 100% above the usual € 0.09/min most German prepaid providers charge).
Though I always had reservations towards Lyca and toggle due to their questionable business practices I actually hoped toggle could one day become my primary SIM where I would also import my German number to. But given the absence of data packs for toggle countries, the recent clandestine drastic price increase and their continuing trouble with Vodafone, which some day could perhaps affect roaming service outside toggle countries, I will not commit myself to them.

It's a pity how toggle is failing to market this promising innovative platform properly. There's a huge market for cross-border SIM cards with competitive tariffs and the capability to assign extraterrestrial numbers but with such a track record of bazar-like pricing policy, unkept promises and unreliability they will never attract high-volume users, especially not those from the business sphere.

As of EU-regulated tariffs I am not aware of any other fixed prices than those € 0.24/min (excl. VAT) for outgoing calls to EU countries and € 0.08/min (excl. VAT) for incoming calls - both applying only while roaming within the EU.
