Remember you can roam as much as you want. That limit applies to the local countries

So if I go to Spain, activate a local number, then am out of Spain for a few months, then activate a Spain number again, I am assuming that means I have used 2 numbers?

I'm pretty sure you can have local numbers for up to nine countries. If you need a new Spanish number, you're still using the same international mobile subscriber identity. The network just maps that IMSI number to a different phone number.
Your not using 2 numbers from the 9, your using 1 country from the 9.
It might be a bit tricky to understand but basically if you have country X, it doesn't matter how many times you activated a number, deactivated a number, added a annual number or what ever the only count is 1 - for adding country X.
since I got the sim a year ago I had to add at least 20+ numbers, if not more and I had no issues.

You should look at their roaming rates outside of their base countries, I might as well use my normal phone.

For those that said they were offered a new sim by Toggle, would that be a new account, or a replacement sim for your account?
Edit: Just heard from them. Guess it has to be a new account with a new SIM and you can't transfer credits. Guess I won't be able to try Roamer for a bit longer... =(

I used them the end of last year in both the UK and in Ireland. You can order their Sim with a starter kit for free and have it shipped to you here in the US. I was able to setup my account and test the sim for calls prior to my departure. Calling inbound/outbound was excellent and I had coverage in more than 90% of the areas that I was at. The data was good, just remember to turn data off when you are not using it or it could run you up and use up all of your prepaid monies quickly. I was able to get 9 days of calls and data without doing a recharge.

I wonder what happens if you "lost" your SIM?

I was wondering the same thing. Their social media team used to be really good about answering questions, but not lately. =(

Trying to register SIM. Running into a problem. It's asking for my Toggle #, and I don't have one yet.
toggle mobile number (e.g. 074********): ____________???
My phone is showing the number: 44 000 000 0000
Where do I go from here?

There should be a sticker on the back of the card that your SIM came with that has the number on it.

FWIW: I called myself (the network shown is T-Mobile) and it came up as a Minnesota number.
Tried to send texts from the same number to no avail.
Right now just trying to get the thing registered. Leave for Europe shortly.

The sticker says "for mobile number please insert sim card"
