No, I stopped trying at 30ct, T-Com is 35 Eurocent.
Solomo is surely cheaper, when someone else pays for the incoming call dialing the cellphone number, but if you pay both legs it isn't. :-)
Calls to german landlines are free with my plan at home.

depending on your landline tariff between 35 and 50ct/min

Chris

I received my Yackie Mobile sim card last night.
I made a call to test it.
After I dialed the number, it took only a few seconds for my phone to ring. I answered and a few more seconds later the other person answered.
It sounded good enough. I was able to hear the other person talking and she could hear me normally also.
Sound was loud and clear. There was a little background noise (hiss), but it was acceptable.

Now is the bad part.
Every time I try to call the +354 number I get a message that says:
“The callee is busy now. Please try again later”
I tried to call from Skype, from my mobile and also from my landline. Always the same message.

If I call the “local” number (which is programmed to divert to the mobile), it rings normally, but if I call the +354 it simply does not work.

I’ve been trying to call the customer care number (090), but I don’t get the call back.

Also, I have not been able to send or receive SMS to and from my mobile, but I suppose this is not Yackie’s fault. It could be a problem with my local mobile company (Claro).
The only sms I received were the ones I sent from Skype.

Another strange thing is that when I sent a sms test message, I received it three times. Also, when I dialed 092 to check my balance, I received the sms message three times

I just noticed another strange thing.
I never received the SMS I sent from my Yackie Mobile to my local mobile, but they are charging it anyway.

> 09 is working on this Issue by reducing teh price range for teh operators, most are allready fixed, we still have few operators who do not authorize a call to this 354 number

If I call the “local” number (which is programmed to divert to the mobile), it rings normally, but if I call the +354 it simply does not work.

> So the DID work, Not the 354, From Brasil ?

I’ve been trying to call the customer care number (090), but I don’t get the call back.

> Try the 105 ......may be better ( the right number is 105 )

Also, I have not been able to send or receive SMS to and from my mobile, but I suppose this is not Yackie’s fault. It could be a problem with my local mobile company (Claro).

> we are also working on the SMS issue for be reconized by all Operators

The only sms I received were the ones I sent from Skype.

Another strange thing is that when I sent a sms test message, I received it three times. Also, when I dialed 092 to check my balance, I received the sms message three times

We will forward this to 09

thank you

Read my thread about the review of Yackie. Also do a search here on the forum. You will see that betamax which you are using does not connect to +354 number. My mobile does connect to the +354 number. This has everything to do with rates. Calling to the yackie +354 number is an expesnive rate and most provider either charge a very high rate. The one's that don't just don't connect to the number.
The yackie rate of $0.29 is very reasonable and much cheaper will be difficult to find.

If you do want to call the number the only good option at the moment is UM+ which is offering a +44 number which you can call using betamax.

It seems that your operator (Claro) has an issue as I have just tested and it works fine from the TIM network, we'll work on this.

I sent an sms to a friend's TIM mobile, and he received it. When he sends me the reply, I don't receive it.

And now, for the fourth time, I received the same SMS I sent from Skype last night

I have the same problem here in Hungary, the Pannon network does not allow even calls to the +354 with range 380...

My German operator (E+) does allow calls to my YackieMobile even when I´m roaming in the Pannon network, so it must be a operator issue. The same problem with SMS.

So that means, I will be not reachable from some operators networks because they see the 380... number range as premium numbers. Interesting is that my e-Mail account provider does allow sending SMS to +354380... numbers, the strange thing on this is that they officially do not offer service to this destination :D ... kind of weird ...

Service providers such as smsbug.com do not deliver send SMS to YackieMobile numbers, roaming SIM operators like e.g. sim4travel with +447509... numbers does not connect to YackieM., Jajah.com does not connect to YackieM., nonoh.com does connect to YackieM. last but not least the roaming service provider !GT-SIM! does connect for 29 Euro Cent to YackieM.
