Almost complete, only rates for calls to satphones are missing...

http://www.united-mobile.com/download/rate...ates_en_eur.pdf

... but I analyzed the pop-up rate calculator and it seems that Thuraya should be in Area 6, Area 7 is Iridium and Emsat, Area 8 - Globalstar, Area 9 - Inmarsat A/B/ISDN/M, Area 10 - Inmarsat M mini (flat rate 15,99 EUR/min worldwide :P)

It's still different rates, look for the f or m after the country name in the area lists.

e.g. UK-UK is 39c fixed (area 1), 59c mobile (area 2).

As a general rule, no operator adds mobile surcharges in destinations like USA, Canada or other countries in which there are no specific "mobile" numbering zones (or no extra mobile termination fees - is there such country at all?).

And, unlike 09, gt-sim or old UM tariffs there's no fixed mobile surcharge here. This surcharge spans from 0.20 to 1.00 EUR/min depending on zone/area combination.

And, I guess, Hop numbers should be considered as Area 2: Monaco KFOR m.

I think that Hop is in Area 1 (Monaco general) because usally +377.4 are cheaper than ex KFOR prefixes.

Also poor Travelsim and other FL networks

Area 4
CAMBODIA, ESTONIA m, FALKLAND ISL., KENYA, LIECHTENSTEIN m, MALDIVES, MALTA m, OMAN, SAMOA, SIERRA LEONE, SYRIA, VIETNAM

Also, do they add a surchage or shipping for REFILLS? The last time I tried to order a refill they wanted to add a surcharge. I wrote about that here somewhere. I even complained to customer service and they wrote back they were adding the surcharge for as a processing fee. THEREFORE, I bought my refill off Ebay.de from a reliable seller of Riiing refills as I had done in the past.

Inbound while in USA is now ONLY 79 E-cents, down from over 1 E I believe. WHY even bother?

USA pricing was ALWAYS high.
