My Danish phone company 3 (which does business in a lot of different countries as well) offers a service called 3LikeHome.

3LikeHome lets you roam in 18 different countries, the data used is taken from your allowance, and you can call home for normal price.

I am a dane living in London, and even though they say it isn't for longer stays abroad, I have been using my danish number in the UK for over a year without any issues.

I guess there is no reasons for alternative roaming provides when regular phone companies makes these changes themselves.

Also a dane living in London using 3. It works great. Only downside is calling UK numbers at billed as if I was calling from Denmark.
Did 3 work well in Denmark?

I'm emigrating in August, and my experience with Three.co.uk in London was terrible (congested network, impossible to load a map or email when I most needed it).

3 works great in Copenhagen and other bigger cities, I have had no issues at all, but I think it depends on where you ware going to stay.

I had issues in Varde (close to Esbjerg) a few years ago, where the connection was bad, but that might have been fixed.

They have a map here: http://80.251.200.40/coverageportal_dk (sorry the shady link, that is what they provide)
