Still wish when you offered that free sim card a while back, I did not get a email saying that the email I sent was rejected from the mail server.

Has anyone even received a free sim card that they offered? This product is similar to yackie. And, it looks like most users in this forum are leaning towards yackie. Their generous offer is just too difficult to pass up.

I have mailed pat today (see mail address above) and got a response withing 5-10 minutes that he would sent me a card.

So it should be in the mail middle-end of next week and I will try their service and review it like i did with yackie.

Can anyone that has this sim card verify if you get charged as soon as you answer the callback, and not when the number called actually answers (Like most other sims that use callback). So for example, if you call an invalid number, a busy number, or a number that just rings without an answer, you still get charged.

That indeed seems to be the case based on one test call.

Thanks MATHA531. That's exactly what I thought. That's the case with the one test call I made with mine too. The original yackie was like that too. So, may be it's the same kind of system or so.

I have read many of negative the posts and I am not surprised as I had a few initial problems related to recieving the SIM, kind of my fault in not putting our company name in the address field.

After travelling with the card, India, Argentina, Germany and Italy. I can confirm that this is the best thing since sliced bread. My cellphone bills on my contract Italian and US lines run about 500 euro per month. Last month my Italian (Vodafone) bill was over 600 euro. Since I have been using my Maxroam for use outside of my two home countries, and using it for international outgoing from my home countries, these bills have been reduced dramatically. Today, my on-line Italian Vodaone bill is sitting at 40 euro and I bet if i check my US bill it will be even lower as I have been in Italy or outside the US all this month. I have my US ATT number diverted to Maxroam and I have spent about 30 euro of MAxroam for those calls and my international outgoing from Italy. At this rate my average total of both bill will go from over 1000 euro to under 400 euro. So far so good. Waiting for the callback is pretty quick and the recharge is almost instantaneous in my experience. Plus the voicemail actually works well (once I figured out how to get to SIM Apps on my V#1!.).
