I thought the limit was 15 digits.

Does this 11-digit number limit include the country code?
If it does, what about Riiing/UM numbers 423 663 xx xx xx? :)

any developments with the iceland card?

thanks ;)

If you include the country code, I guess it is...

:D

I used the 09 SIM in Mexico. With my Motorola v600, it worked fine with Callbackworld, but I could not get it work with its own commands. The card also worked in a similar fashion in Belize which was a shocker since Belize is not a listed country of service. The card registered on Cubacell, but I didn't place any calls. I was in a boat just off Cuban waters and the signal wasn't stable enough.

What do you mean? Did you trigger callbacks from CBW by using another phone?

I just get a 09 sim card too... also I can see a strange thing, the home network is Swisscom!

then I have boring troubles with SMS... in fact, i can't reach 09 from any italian network :( And I can't call that prefix from vodafone italy too... not so good, I'll contact the Customer care very soon.

What do you mean by "home network"? Something like FL1 for UM or Areeba Ghana for Hop?

If so, I "smell" SMS troubles (like in Hop) :P

Not exactly... inside the sim card you can find the list of favourite networks and the "home network" is Swisscom. But the sim card has a correct serial number 8935402xxx. of Iceland and not a swiss one as FL1 for UM or Areeba Ghana for Hop... really strange ;)

I've also just got back from Mexico.

Last wednesday, the 092 "balance" command started working, and it confirmed that incoming calls in Mexico are free (however, the account is debited 2 or 4c each time the balance is checked, which looks like a bug).

Still can't make outgoing calls, nor send or receive sms. But, using a second phone I could trigger callbacks, so using callbackworld or (more reliably) gphone I could call the UK and US for around 15c/min, which for Mexico is an excellent rate. (with the local sims, it mostly costs more than that to make local calls, or to receive calls from outside the local area).

So for my extremely limited case it was a success (far cheaper than any other solution for making international calls from a gsm phone in Mexico).

Note: the 092 balance enquiry isn't working now I'm back the US, I don't know if that's because it doesn't work here yet or if it has stopped working again in the last few days.

I saw some comments on here about the length of the number: it's a perfectly normal 12 digits as those digits include the country code. Exactly the same length as most UK numbers.
