FreeGlobalSim Rate Change - Now Very Expensive!

The pricing mentioned here is not correct - there is still an error in the pricing engine on this site.

There is no differentiation between mobile and fixed to US as a destination at CallKey (we wouldn't know the difference between the two) nor is there a high price associated with calls into the US. However, when a mobile is roaming in countries where the incoming customer pays for a call (like the US) a roaming SIM would mess up that model so the local carriers impose a roaming surcharge on foriegn sims coming into the country. CallKey does not markup this surcharge in any way and it applies to ALL incoming roaming sims, CallKey or not. This is what makes calls using the roaming sim expensive when in the US calling out (but still cheaper than other foriegn carriers) but this does not effect calls coming into the US from the outside.
