Good News for Inmarsat Pre Paid Users

Isn't it amazing. In one hand and out the other!!

Luckily for us that is for emergency only so what price insurance etc etc. We have only made two (I think) calls since we got it in 2010. Only one was an emergency on the CSR and the other was a test in 2010 to make sure it worked.

Thanks Malcom we will see what our provider can offer when we put some credit on it next trip which will not be until March. I would hate to be paying a monthly account all these years. Ouch!

Hi Phil

SatphoneSales bought up quite a bit of pre price rise stock so are holding the price until Dec.
Good time to buy but you need to use them before Jan 2017

We were lucky enough to get ours back in 2010 with the govt subsidy.

Talking card top ups, not the phone purchase...

Hi Malcolm

When I spoke with Satphonesales, they did not mention the December time frame and the price for the new long life 100 unit voucher has not gone up at all and is still $160, the same price that it was before.

Could it be that some sellers have a few special and loyal customers and "reserve" a few packages for them. I do believe mine does. In a previous life I had many contacts with mine and I must say a lot of big contract work went their way.

Hi Stephen

This is an email dated June 20 from satphonesales. See para 2
Maybe they sold out of their cheap stock.


Hi,

You can purchase airtime outside of business hours by navigating to our
online store: http://www.satphonesales.com.au/Inmarsat-Long-Life-Airtime .
We will then email your voucher the next business day.

You may be aware that Inmarsat recently reduced the validity period of their
vouchers. We were able to purchase a bulk number of vouchers (which must be
redeemed by 31.12.16) at the old validity period and cost. Please note when
these extended validity period vouchers are sold out the validity period
will reflect the changes Inmarsat have made.

Please be aware that you do you require a sim card from Sat Phone Sales to
be able to use our airtime. We happily post a sim card to you via regular
mail.

To order a sim card and airtime with extended validity period please go to
http://www.satphonesales.com.au/Free-IsatPhone-SIM-Card-regular-mail (to
order your free sim sim) and
http://www.satphonesales.com.au/Inmarsat-Long-Life-Airtime
(to order airtime).

Hi Malcolm

I am fully aware of the above details, but has nothing to do with what I have posted. I have just given them another phone call to confirm what I have posted is 100% correct, and yes it is...here is there number so you can confirm for yourself, 1300 135 457.

Proving you get a new free sim, they have purchased lots of long life credit that will be ongoing for as long as they have the long life credit to sell. At a point of time in the future when they have sold all their newly acquired long life credit, that is when the new short life vouchers will be sold.

So like I have said, please give them a phone call, order your new free sim and as long as they have long life credit, you will be ok.

The December date that you mention was for users that purchased the old long life credit with older sims.



Cheers

Hi Sigmund

It's good to be able to get the long life credit.

Cheers

Exactly. All bets are off Dec 31 with the new prices and durations regardless of old stock.
