In 2004, UK travellers made 64.19m overseas trips. It is forecast that by 2010, people using their mobile phones abroad will increase from 207.17m to 852.37m and generate US$211.81bn (approx. GBP£119bn) in call revenue, of which 61% will be generated by European travellers. But there is one issue that faces all mobile phone using travellers: cost. It can cost UK travellers up to £1.80 to make and receive calls whilst abroad.
SIM4travel provides travellers with a low cost alternative to international roaming. By using their international Pay As You Go SIM they can reduce their mobile phone charges by over 85%.
The recent EU investigation into international roaming recommends the use of local Pay As You Go SIM cards to avoid high roaming charges. SIM4travel has taken this recommendation one step further - its global SIM can be used in 120 countries with a global network that combines the resources of over 250 national mobile operators, offering unrivalled levels of service and value.
For example, if you are a T-Mobile customer on their standard Pay As You Go tariff who is roaming in Turkey, the cost to make a 4-minute call and receive a 4-minute call is £14.40. The same calls cost just £1.60 with SIM4travel, representing a saving of £12.80 (a saving of 88.9%).
Benefits of the service are as follows: • Free to receive calls in 80 countries • Coverage in 120 countries • Low cost international call charges to anywhere in the world • Simple and clear per minute pricing – no hidden charges or complex calling conditions • Simple to top-up from anywhere in the world – directly from your phone • English speaking customer care and support, globally • Pay As You Go service, no contracts or additional fees
