Default same here - Not receiving calls to US number while abroad - 02-04-2010, 17:49

I am on my last day of a 7-day visit to Montego Bay, Jamaica. The Ekit sim card has not really been useful for what I got it for. May be only 1 out of 10 calls to the US number rang through. I tested this several times. Since I have several ways to call, via Wifi, using other sim cards, etc. Thank god for TelnaMobile. Once I realized calls to the Ekit sim were not coming through, I changed my forwarding to Telna. And that worked for all incoming calls. Withe the non-functiojnal Ekit, the caller hears a ring, but it does not ring through to the Ekit sim and eventually just goes to VM. I switched carriers Digice/C&W, but the results were the same. Outgoing calls worked without a problem. Thanks to the resort's free WiFi (Only in the reception area), pretty much almost all my outgoing calls were from My Nokia E63 (Using voipcheap, skypemobile, and truphone clients) and my Tmobile Nokia UMA phones using the WiFi.

Like I always say, make sure to have a backup of more then one other option. It also helps that I have my netbook with voipcheap and skype on it.
