Perhaps those new SIM cards can now store more than 9 IMSIs. You could easily find out...

o2 Germany now seems to have an offer for o2 Blue Select tariff which includes each month 500 MB in Germany and 500 MB in the EU/EEU, but also valid in Switzerland, Andorra, Gibraltar, Monaco, San Marino, Vatikan, Guernsey, Isle of Man and Jersey. 19,99 EUR monthly with 24 months contract.

Of course not suitable for those living outside of Germany. However in my opinion it shows that the market is moving fast and also the operators in the other countries will follow with new offers.

Toggle´s website advertises incoming calls in Belgium (non-Toggle-country) @4c/minute.

Their info-sms praises incoming calls as "free".

I received some calls in Belgium today, and they show up as free in the call details.

Does anyone know the "real" tariffs charged in Serbia/Romania/Bulgaria?

Thanks and rgds,
Christian

It seems like I've missed out something here. Nevertheless I think even if Lyca has access to some LTE networks, for toggle LTE implementation will be quite complex given the many different underlying MNOs and the network equipment from multiple vendors involved.

Out of current context, but still:

Cyprus:

SMS praises incoming free, while the website sais 4p/min. It was effectively free.
Website sais outgoing to EU (countries I checked) is 18p/minute, SMS sais 23p/minute. I used callback via the free incoming instead, so don´t know what would have been charged.
I did make one call from Cyprus to Cyprus lasting 19 seconds. Website sais 18p/minute, SMS sais 23p/minute (same as above), the effective charge was 9p.

Summary:

The rate calculator on Toggle´s website is effectively worthless.

This just came to my attention:

If someone tries to call my Swiss Toggle# and I don´t pick up, after 20 seconds of ringing the caller hears the message: "The number you are trying to call is not assigned."

If I do pick up during that timeframe, the connection is established - so it´s not simply an expired number.

Need I say that that´s less-than-helpful?

I contacted Customer Service - let´s see if they can do something about it.

Toggle Customer Service sais, they depend on the local companies they work together with, hence can´t do anything about it.

So I called the Swiss Lycamobile folks, trying to tell them that it´s a Lycamobile#. They can´t locate the number in their database, but actually tell me "this number really doesn´t exist, hence the IVR-response is correct".

I tried to tell the guy to call me back as proof that the number does indeed exist - they´re not allowed to do any outbound calling.

As a summary: Seems as if there´s not exactly an easy fix!

EDIT: It´s the same "the number you have dialled is not assigned"-story for my UK#.

After some time, the call is transferred to the voice mail number. Check with *#61#. In my case it says after 25 seconds to 00447404000231. This should be the Lycamobile UK voice mail that has nothing to do with the local Lycamobile numbers. I cannot reach that number from any phone, not even from Toggle. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I have deactivated the voice mail.

@chrisneedtoknow

Have a look at the new orange.ch unlimited EU roaming offer, that might be ideal for you!

In Italy 3 out of 4 main carriers have at least one EU-wide offer since last year.

TIM offers 500min, 500sms and 500MB (within and to EU) (+ national unlimited texts and calls, 3GB data) for 49€/month, while Vodafone offers unlimited calls and texts (to EU and USA) and 5GB within EU and USA (and Italy) for 75€/month. Wind instead offers 1000min, 1000sms (to EU) and 1GB (+national unlimited calls and texts, 2GB) for 39€.

Unfortunately not on prepaid, where we have to stick to daily bundles

N.B.: even Switzerland, Norway and Iceland are included.
