For North Americans going to European countries there is one good and tried-and-true solution to solve the cell phone dilemma and be able to converse while traveling. This solution is easy - you simply buy a Europe sim card from CallinEurope, insert it in a multi-band GSM cell phone model and are ready to make and receive calls while being across the seas. You won't pay unexpectedly huge roaming fees being charged only for your usage. More than that, due to this sim card you will be able to use your home phone number and your new European number on the same phone.

Keep Talking in Europe V44 plan rates. This plan comes with a UK mobile line.
PDA, Smartphone, Pocket PC or Data Mobile users
Our SIM cards are 3G/GPRS enabled. This feature is provided for free and will allow you to use the data services of your unlocked device.
If you use a PDA, Smartphone or Pocket PC running on Windows Mobile (or an equivalent open operating system on Exchange Server) you can simply insert one of our SIM cards into your device, and you must enter « mobile.o2.co.uk » (lower case) in the APN field of your connection settings.
Then you will pay simply for your usage, as follow :
Within
U.K. : $0.005 per KB for emailing and web browsing (minimum of $0.05)
Outside
U.K. : $0.015 per KB for emailing and web browsing (minimum of $3 per APN per day)
3G/GPRS speeds are not guaranteed and will vary based on the countries you will be visiting and on the local networks coverage and equipment.
If you own a BlackBerry® our services are compatible. Use our SIM card with your unlocked device and keep receiving your emails while saving a bundle on all of your data and calling charges!
Until now when you traveled abroad you had to activate an international data plan with your current carrier. Some providers even locked you up in a yearly subscription... but you still had to pay high roaming calling charges.
For BlackBerry® users, we propose a flexible option that allows you to activate this service for the duration of your trip.
How does it work?
Contact us to activate this option on your line. Then replace your current carrier's SIM card with your Call in Europe SIM card and continue sending and receiving your emails. This is that simple and no settings have to be changed. Or, if you already have an existing line with us, simply contact us before your departure to activate this option.
The option is only $2.50 per day if you travel within the U.K. or $4.5 per day if you travel within Europe.
Within U.K. : unlimited emailing and data usage(*)
Outside U.K. : unlimited emailing and data usage(*)
Add and remove this option to your line without limit to suit your travel needs. Allow up to 72 hours to activate or deactivate this option.
(*) A Fair Usage policy will apply whereby usage will be monitored and extra charges may be applied if it exceeds 75 MB usage per month.

Did you know?
In North America, cell phone providers prevent their customers from forwarding their numbers to foreign destinations. Our Keep My Number feature will enable you during your trips to forward all the calls you might receive on your current US or Canadian cell phone directly to your call in Europe line.
How does it work?
On top of your European number that will come with your call in Europe line, we will provide you with a local access number that will be programmed to ring your European number wherever you travel.
Simply forward your US or Canadian cell phone number (home/office numbers as well) to this access number and all your incoming calls will ring on your call in Europe line. You can then decide to whom to give your European number, but you keep the convenience to receive all your calls without incurring high roaming international charges.
This feature can be added for just $0.10 per day with all our SIM cards calling plans. You will only pay $0.29 per minute for incoming calls in addition to the standard incoming charge, if any.
Please check with your carriers on how to forward your US or Canadian numbers and any applicable fees depending on your plan.
