The 60c for the US is a surcharge, not the total cost, so a call to a landline (anywhere) from the US is EUR 86c (US 103c). But the US isn't really where you'd want to use it.

There's no surcharge when the call is diverted - diverted calls are billed at the incoming rate (38c) (so in the US divert the incoming calls, if any, to a landline or local cell).

Currently, calls to check voicemail are not being charged for, even from the US, which makes up for the lack of voicemail notifies.

One other thing (that has been mentioned here before) - although it's a UK-style number, people calling the number from a UK mobile in the UK will get charged at a higher rate than calling a real UK mobile.

As it's in a number range that is technically "pagers" (for historical reasons) a very few international long distance companies will charge it at a rate different from UK mobiles. But that also means some charge it at UK landline rates.
