It’s easy to use because it uses standard direct dialing like your home phone (unlike the complicated call back system above). And your service is continually active whenever you need it so you’ll never get cut off. And most importantly, you get the best call quality — it automatically chooses the strongest cell phone signal of all the carriers in the area. It’s the equivalent of your US cell phone being able to choose between Cingular/AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Nextel and Sprint for the strongest signal every time you make a call, so the quality is always the best. And quality is obviously the most important feature of a cell phone service! | | | Features: | |

Good for emergencies. That's it.Feb 23, 2010
I got this with my Nokia E71 before heading overseas on a short-term assignment and am forever thankful for a GSM network, but after getting home and seeing the phone bill I just about passed out. This thing is good for emergencies and that's about it, that is if you're in a GSM network. Any network it tapped into was strong and the quality was fine, but other than that this thing is a dog. I could be wrong, but think Mobal even charges you for using an existing network even if you don't make or receive any calls. Unlike me, do yourself a favor and research other, better international SIMs and you might be happier.
 Not for people who already have a sim cardDec 19, 2009
Your current mobile carrier should have a feature called "international roaming" (just call your mobile carrier for infos) and that's what exactly this product is doing... so why bother buying if your carrier can do it for you??
otherwise if you dont have a sim card yet then this might work... (but then again, overpriced)

 It's only useful for testing your phone. But it's free.Nov 09, 2009
I ordered a cheap GSM phone for a trip to Europe. I ordered my SIM card from a different site, but the Mobal card came free with the phone from Amazon. I had heard horror stories of people getting to Europe and finding their phone locked, so I took the free Mobal card and used it to make sure the phone was unlocked. This way I could test it over a month ahead of time before I had my real SIM card.
I would rate this a low as possible if it weren't free. But since it is free, it actually serves a purpose. The service from Mobal is outrageously expensive.

very overpricedOct 23, 2009
I got this sim card as a free promo item with the purchase of a cell phone, the rates for this service are really nuts, I probably won't use it.
 Just as good as T-MobileSep 28, 2009
The SIM card picks up different networks well, but sometimes I have dropped text messages and calls. It works just as well as TMobile then, except with more coverage!
