I checked with BT to see if this was correct, which it was, if I had used my normal choice the cost would have been closer to £30.00 in total. I am now waiting for my wife’s mobile bill, I have been told that the calls to the XxSim number are £1.00 per minute, fortunately she only used it a couple of times when calling my XxSim number, if I had used my Piranha she could have called my UK number within her contracted bundled minutes. More fool me, never again. Word of warning, USERS BEWARE!!!!
sorry to say that, but you should never use any foreign SIM card without checking the rates with your provider upfront. Thats why i set up a different calling route for the XXSim in our phone switchboard which gets the cost down from 39ct/min (from our regular provider) to about 18ct/min on a different VoIP carrier...

you're right, most xxsim customers realize the trick with estonian based simcards after they return home..and check their telephone bill!

in our company's tel.switchbord we now redirect calls to our employees abroad with 0.12 eurocents/min to camelmobile numbers (+3712), a new voip provider offers now this excellent rate, actually reduced the rate to these numbers, previously was at 0.18eurocents
