RomingSIM is a service for business travelers that
offers low-cost international telephone call service
for making calls from and receiving calls at a
roaming GSM handset without having to pay the
regular Roaming Charge.
The service works as follows:
A subscriber to the RomingSIM service buys a
RomingSIM (US$49.50).
The RomingSIM comes with a RomingSIM No. issued in
the U.K. with country code <44>.
(i) To make an outbound call from anywhere in any of
the countries supporting the RomingSIM / service
("Servicing Countries")
- Subscriber/user
dials the Destination Number as <+>- <Country
Code> - <Area Code> - <Telephone Number> on the
keypad of the GSM handset
- subscriber sees
a message on the screen of the GSM handset that
says, "Please wait - your call is being
processed"
- then the GSM
Handset rings - a CallBack Call is received
- subscriber
presses the "Send/Yes" key of the GSM Handset to
answer the CallBack Call
- subscriber hears
a message that says, "Please hold"
- subscriber then
hears the ringback tone of the call to the
Destination Number
(ii) When an inbound
call is dialed by a caller to the RomingSIM No.,
the operation is as follows:
- caller dials the
RomingSIM No.
- the roaming
handset rings
- the
subscriber/user answers the call
- subscriber
presses the "Send/Yes" key to answer the call
and is instantly connected with the calling
party
The inbound call is
billed at the per minute rate for calling the mobile
dialcode of the temporary local number that is
assigned to the roaming handset by the local GSM
operator. The rate is given by the rate calculator
at www.Roming.net.
No regular Roaming Charge is applicable to the
outbound or inbound call described above.
There is no charge for unsuccessful or not completed
inbound or outbound calls.
However, when the handset is roaming in one of 30
countries where the local GSM operator imposes a
service charge to all foreign SIMs, a per minute
surcharge is added to the applicable per minute
rates for billing the outbound or inbound call.
But overall for the subscriber a saving of up to 85%
is achieved with the use of the RomingSIM service.
