Global Service - What Do I Get?

Am I correct that the $25 Global Service get me 100MB of data and that for an added $15 I get 100 minutes of voice (plus messaging) -- AND -- that besides taxes there are NO other roaming or other charges? Phone to be used in France, Holland and Iceland.

Also, is it possible to get 200MB of data?

I don't know about the minutes and messaging. Usually they are on a per usage rate. The data is $25/100MB. You will be charged $25 for every 100MB you use. So up to 200 would be $50 and so on. It does look like there is a new plan for wifi hotspots when you add an International Data Plan.

Most devices now accept international SIM cards. I was in Slovakia and got a prepaid SIM from Orange. It cost 8 Euros. I was charged .40 Euro for 200MB of data. Since most of my friends and family used iPhones I didn't need to use minutes only iMessage. This works well if you have an iPhone. With Androids you can prepare your friends and family to use an app like WhatsApp or GroupMe while you're away. Having to not make phone calls makes it so much cheaper.
