She has with her an unlocked iphone 3GS. What would you advice her best options are for prepaid cell phone company in terms of international roaming? Is there any single company that could cover her for most of northern Europe,? Please drop the link of a website which provides the relevant info.

a prepaid cell phone company and that too Europe-centric has evolved since EU has legislated to reduce roaming call costs within European Union member states, but major network providers in the UK are only reducing their rates to the maximum legally allowed by the EU. This means that significant savings can still be made if you travel within the EU and use your mobile phone for roaming even for short periods. EU legislation does not apply outside of Europe, where network roaming call costs can still exceed £1 per/min. Try visiting RoamongAdvisor.com that compares the latest international roaming tariffs and international mobile roaming charges for global mobile roaming SIM cards and for European SIM cards.New EU regulations mean the maximum providers can charge has slowly been falling. Calls made to an EU country while in another EU state are now capped at roughly 31p/min (excl VAT), down from around 43p. Receiving calls can cost no more than roughly 10p/min, down from 19p. so you know exactly how and what to get for your girlfriend!!
