Iridium Expiry Policy Explained.

Since December 17, 2013 Iridium have been enforcing a maximum validity for the balance of vouchers as below;

  • All prepaid 'units' that have been carried over (from extension top ups) for more than three years will be expired on a daily basis from prepaid account balances.
  • For any customer who has purchased a 3k/5k e‐voucher since December 17, 2009 and going forward, a four‐year expiry period on units will apply.
  • Units will expire based on the oldest voucher purchase activity which is greater than three years (four years for 3k/5k e‐vouchers) that has not yet been consumed, if applicable.

As well as the above, please note that the maximum expiry period allowed at any one time is 2 years.

Unit balances are available to customers by calling 2888 or sending an SMS to 2888 from their Iridium handset. Users will be given the balance of units that may expire if not used within the next six months. This message will be based on the oldest e‐voucher purchase activity and units that are subject to expiry within the next six months, if applicable.

INMARSAT ISATPHONE PREPAID SATELLITE AIRTIME SERVICE PLANS AND PACKAGES

Global pre-paid satellite voice and data services now available from Inmarsat

Inmarsat announced that it now offers global pre-paid satellite services for both voice and data via the Inmarsat pre-pay platform with the introduction of support for voice calls originating in the US and its territories.Through an agreement with Freedom Wireless Holdings Inc., Inmarsat is now the first mobile satellite provider in the world licensed to offer pre-paid voice services from the US. Pre-pay voice will be available from 1st September 2012 for all existing Inmarsat land and maritime services including IsatPhone Pro™, BGAN™, FleetBroadband™ and FleetPhone™.

Pre-paid services are popular with people who work on short term or seasonal projects and prefer not to commit to a contract. “Many customers use satellite services across multiple markets and have been frustrated by being unable to use pre-paid services while in the US and its territorial waters. We are proud to be the first company to deliver a global service. This announcement exemplifies our commitment to meeting our customers' needs,” said Jim Parm, President of Inmarsat Solutions.

“With this breakthrough announcement we are simplifying communications for our users. IsatPhone Pro users can now be contacted using a single phone number wherever they are located and use just one device for their global communications, while FleetBroadband customers can now travel in and out of US territorial waters on pre-paid plans,” added Parm.

These Prepaid Airtime SIM cards and Vouchers are for the Inmarsat IsatPhone Pro and IsatPhone 2.
