In my book, a call which is made 'On Net' is when the callee is on the 
same network as your telephone provider. An 'Off Net' call would be a 
call where the callee is on a different provider.

So if you make a call to a t-mobile user using a t-mobile SIM card, 
you're 'On Net'. If you're calling a vodafone user with the same SIM 
card, it's an 'Off Net' call.

At least this is the terminology I've heard so far - YMMV.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel.
