I'm in Paris this week and can confirm that UM+ doesn't work here, though it worked perfectly in the UK at the weekend.

Thankfully my UK SP - O2 - has travel roaming enabled at 18 pence inbound, 30 pence outbound - not perfect, but workanble.

Bloody annoyed with UM over this...

Did it work in Germany, instead? Since here it's still not working (in Italy), but some friends had it working (always in Italy)... so it could be some UM problem, rather than geographic...

They UM+ cards always work when newly activated, but they die one or two days later. This may be the case for your card in France.

Mine is still dead, while it was ok at the beginning. Only 089 works, nothing else.

There was some problems with some activations. Mine was the same...worked the first day and the following morning it kept saying (like others posted) the card was inactive when I try to make a call and incoming calls were not coming through. Anyway, a quick call to UM customer service fixed that. They had to access the system and reactivate mine. So, if your is still not working, you may want to call them.

yes, right, my 2 UM+ are dead too, after the first day, and only 089 work ... when try to make a call a flash sms says that card is not active and wait for customer service connection in a moment, but untill now, 3 days, nothing.
I've mailed them 4 times, but no answer at all!
next week i'll go to greece, hoping they will solve the problem, anyway i'll test also there the sim.

UM doesn't reply at all. During the last 10 days I've reported serveral errors to them, but they didn't react on any mail.
