Through my experience with 09 Mobile when it first started and also Yackie Mobile now a days, calling +354380xxxxxx can be not successful sometimes.

I've noticed Tier 1 providers who connect directly to +354380xxxxxx using no cheap routes, call compression, cheaper switching of calls, voip/sip, etc.. connect each time with no problem.

But when i use cheaper providers that uses these cheaper ways of transmitting calls do have problems, especially at peak times. These sort of companies can use in-direct dialling (ie 18185.co.uk call1899.co.uk call18866.co.uk). Sip/Voip can have problems depending who you use. You can usually tell a carrier that uses call compression as things like DTMF won't work.

I don't praise or blame 09 Mobile/Yackie Mobile for only connecting calls to them from top quality Tier 1 providers. A suggestion for the future may be that they connect from more carriers and take some that are of lesser quality. (I come across similair problems when i choose a company for web hosting my websites... Do i choose a cheaper provider that connects to one or two ISPs, or pay a bit extra for a provider that connects to many ISPs of varying quality)
