Lifehacker (Australia), November 21, 2016 Ask LH: Which Travel SIM Card Should I Buy?"For our money, one of the best options you can purchase in Australia is OneSimCard. This works in most countries including all European nations. The card includes both an Australian and a European phone number and is compatible with 4G speeds, where available. It also allows you to receive free incoming calls and SMS text messages."

The New York Times, September 23, 2012 Frugal Traveler: How to Avoid a Smartphone’s Bite"As many people have learned the hard way, calling and texting while abroad can bring painful bills. What you should do: If your phone is “unlocked,” meaning you can use other providers, get an international SIM card. I tested OneSimCard's Standard card this summer. Web browsing was surprisingly affordable in many places. Prices have dropped recently, to as little as 25 cents a megabyte with OneSimCard’s Daily Data Package. Most of the time, you can travel from one country to another and your phone is unfazed, simply switching from one local company to another. You load your phone with credits and set your account to reload automatically. [They] have excellent American-based customer service."

I made and accepted numerous calls...with the casualness of sitting at Starbucks on Connecticut Avenue. And I received one of the biggest surprises of my trip when my phone unexpectedly rang in Mongolia. I answered it and heard an earful about the day’s events at home."
