Could T-Mobile (U.S.) new global plan doom the global SIM card business?

You can get the TMobile deal from harbormobile.com for $30 a month.

For the folks who don't live in the US and are attracted to this plan: A Canadian friend of mine in Toronto got a TMobile account with a US credit card and address. Within 90 days they had him flagged as not being a US resident. And no, it wasn't Vlad.

Does he perhaps speak French?

What happened after he was unmasked?

They shut off his roaming. By the way, he was not using the SIM to roam in Canada. It may have been plugged in on his dresser, but that was it.

Not the same deal; harbor mobile (according to their website) charges $25 a month for voice roaming outside the U.S., in addition to the .20 per minute.
