However strange things have happened since: I have called their phone numbers many time and always get a busy signal, I have sent an E-mail and received zero response, My neighbor activated his SIM card online and was charged twice to his credit card. He has been attempting to contact Range Roamer and has received no response ! My reaction has been to put them on a watch and beware list for my own account with them.

In January 2008, I got excellent service in Egypt, which is not easy to do. While traveling down the Nile, calls were lost only once or twice and very briefly was service unavailable. Receipt and return of phone was easy and charges nominal. One charge for a phone component RR said was not returned was reversed when I contacted them. Overall experience was very good. .-= Michelle Brenner´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/HipCompass/~3/qjpHVStSf9I/" rel="nofollow">Fall Issue of HipCompass Escapes</a> =-.

I had a fine experience using them in europe, which is what prompted the review....I never recommend anything unless I try it out myself. They did mistakenly charge my card 8 times for one renewal, but when I called them they figured out it was a computer glitch and returned the money to my card instantly.....no questions had. But thanks for the heads up and feed back! Kim Passanante »

Range Roamer inflates charges faster than a kite flies in a hurricane. In the one month period our daugther traveled Europe we had not ONE successful call to her. ZERO, ZILCH, NADA. I would not recommend Range Roamer to ANYONE. In fact I will strongly advise you to bypass their services at all costs. You have got to be kidding.
