So you can still use the "Roaming" IMSI but it is restricted to Bouygues like the French Lyca IMSI? Have you tried to manually select the other networks four times in a row while you use the Roaming IMSI? If you try to register on a certain network less than four times, your SIM may be refused due to steering of roaming which can be overcome by repeatedly trying to register for four times.

I can only talk about Switzerland right now. I am in Switzerland and I ordered a local Swiss number.

When choosing the "Roaming"-IMSI I cannot access any Swiss network. I requested access 5 times in a row (just to make sure) on each of the 3 networks, to no avail.

Choosing the Swiss IMSI gives me access to Swisscom (only).

For testing purposes I use a Nokia C2-00. When choosing "Automatic" in the SIM Kit, I cannot access any network. I have to choose Switzerland manually.

I´ll report about Germany (without local number) when I visit Germany next time (probably Friday).

Rgds, Christian

oups. in fact i'm on the same case as ChrisNeedsToKnow, i think they changed my roaming to france without warn me

on ROAMING vodafone NL, no network in France
on France, only bouygues telecom...

lycatel now has negociated with vodafone no network agreement on several countries... so when a lycamobile country is open or if you ask / have asked one month free country number it is now one network you must force. period.
