I am pretty sure they might make a range of area codes available. It is a dual IMSI card, so the US part of it, functions just like the standard US registered SIM of whatever MVNO they choose to use.

By the way, I am sure the point comes across spectacularly even without multi-font sizing it! It might actually make it easier to read!

I have an older Passport SIM without the Dual numbers. I have spoken to their Customer Service department. They said that if a friend in the U.S. calls my U.S. number, they pay nothing (if they have a U.S. cell phone with free U.S. roaming) and I will receive the call in Europe and only pay 19 cents a minute. This is a pretty inexpensive way for associates to call me. The extra connectiuon fee is not applied.

I am not sure why they shut down the U.S. number after 7 days. But reactivation is easy.

You must make one call or SMS every 9 months and recharge at least every 15 months.

As for activating the SIM with a code and #2 in the U.S. and #1 in Europe, I assume this is needed so the SIM knows where you are located. So if you make a call from the U.S. without that activation #2 code, you will pay $2.49 per minute instead of 49 cents per minute.
