Please correct me if i am wrong but that does not seem very competitive to me. regards Alf

i am not working or getting paid from GTSIM but please have
a look at the website http://www.gt-sim.de/ then click on pricelist
and then on complete pricelist.

Here it says all inbound calls within the EU are free of charge ..
given the fact that you subscribed to the B2C plan (standard plan) it varies when you are on the B2B or GTPhone plan. (these are cheaper for outbound calls but not for inbound).

i tried with my card roaming on D1,D2,E+,O2 in Germany and only outbound calls had been charged to my GTSIM account at 0,26 € per minute (i called my fixed line at home)

So the info on the webpage is a bit misleading if you are not looking at the detailed pricelist ... i guess GTSIM wants to promote the B2B and GTPhone plan. (here the outbound calls are cheaper but you pay for inbound calls)

i have now GTSIM, UM, UM+, Globalsim

I went to the post office last Thursday and oh wonder, a GT-SIM replacement SIM were in my Postbox. It is wrapped in a identical wrapper than the original SIM came. A Silver sticker is above the Simcard giving you the following details:

Your Old Sim Number: +44 xxxxxxxxxx
Your new Sim Number: +44 xxxxxxxxxx
PIN:
PUK1:

The Number is within the +44-7924-3xxxxx number range. Search on the web says clearly it is a MANX Number.

At present I had no time to try the SIM-card, wondering if it is just a plain SIM or if it comes with some call value (since I had no money left on the SIM).

Hi Easyroam,

i checked the CLI thing on O2 in Germany calling from my O2 Contract to GT-SIM
maybe i need to check this once more with the GT-SIM roaming on T-D1, Vodafone D2, and E+.

BTW: does anybody knows if you can use GPRS with the GT-SIM cards as well.
with the old card this was no issue at all. What is the APN now for the new Card ?

Hi thblob,

I guess that data roaming for prepaid Simcards is gone. If you look at their website you will see that they only offer GPRS for the postpaid deal and for all of those that buy their mobile phone.

Hi,

its funny now i can roam on all 4 Networks in Germany and
i have my GTSIM CLI on all outgoing calls (roaming on D1,D2,E+,O2)

BUT i can not reach the GTSIM number from either O2 or D2 thats really
strange ..

Cheers Thomas

Hi,

i can report its working on D1,D2,E+,O2 in Germany
the SIM can be reached and i get in/outboud CLI on all of my
Calls on all 4 Networks.

Lets hope this time the platform hosted on MANX island is a bit
more stable then the last time

"Why strange? They offer the same like yackiemobile.com, if you choose one of the DID numbers then incoming calls will be forwarded charge free to your +447924.... number. Good service if it works."

Yackie does charge for the forwarding. When calling the cell phone direct they have no incoming cost (many countries) when forwarding they do have costs to forward the call.

Gt-Sim is not very clear about this. It would become a huge succes if they would have a did number forwared at no cost to a cell phone and have no incoming cost (roaming), but I thing the 19 cent incoming applies to the forwarded call from the did number, but again gt-sim is not clear about this.

... read slowly and carefully, I did not wrote that Yackie does forward for null. Yackie does charge 29 Dollar cent for a forwarding.

GT-SIM is clear about this, cause I have it in written form on paper in front of me. DID numbers will be forwarded !tariff free! to the +447924... numbers, but you will be charged for incoming calls 19 Euro cent in EACH case. So the system does not make differences between forwarded DID or a other incoming call.

Dear bbob would you please inform yourself before you write a comment?

Johndo if you would have read my post you would have read that the gt-sim website has very little information. You seem to have something in front of you but when you seem to know everything, please give the the page on the gt-sim website where I can read this, because I can't find that info

If you read a little back in this thread thblob was posting info that he was not charged the 0.19 cent incoming when testing this in germany. So why is he not paying and you have info that even on the 7924 number you are charged 0.19 euro.

I repeat myself the gt-sim website does also mention b2c plan which has 0 cost for incoming calls.

My only point is that the gt-sim website is very confusing and not clear about who is paying what and that there seems to be info you have written form which is not on the gt-sim website.

... go to the web page of GT-SIM, click the link "contact us" and let them call you back ... means step in contact with them and let you give yourself answers to your questions ... what about this possibility?

I do find the necessary infos, why you not?

... I don´t know why he is charged 0 for incoming calls, I GUESS they have still a bug in their billing system or they still do billing two ways ... but it is not the question that I have the to answer to this "wrong" billing case.

Indeed, but if you would contact them by phone they would tell you that this tariff version is obsolete. That´s what I mean, get yourself the needed info before you write here comments, which does not reach even in small circles the facts.

What are you crying for? GO AND GET YOURSELF THE INFOS IF YOUR NOT CLEAR ABOUT A SERVICE.
