What Am I Misssing? Re: Geosim & Other Iom Sims

[Bossman]

Yes. It's free to any number. I have tried to UM sim and to UK number. The call history also shows it.

BTW, this sim does not show callerID even though when one receives the VM text it shows the number that left a message. So does the call detail below. Do other IOM sims show caller ID? I guess the caller ID gets to their system and they just do not send it to the sim...I do not know jack about any of the technical details!

Here is an excerpt I just X'ed out the last part of the numbers:

In (SIM) 13-Sep-06 08:09
Forwarded Call Unknown 447624129XXX 447624129XXX 0:00:09 US$ 0.00
To Forwarded Call 423663009XXX 0:00:00 US$ 0.0000
Incoming Call Leg Unknown 447624129XXX 0:00:00 US$ 0.0000

In (SIM) 15-Sep-06 08:08 Forwarded Call 847915XXXX 447624129XXX 447624129XXX 0:00:01 US$ 0.00
To Forwarded Call 1847452XXXX 0:00:01 US$ 0.0000
Incoming Call Leg 847915XXXX 447624129XXX 0:00:01 US$ 0.0000

Moreover, if forwarding were free to any number, why not to forward to Iridium and to have a worldwide coverage with free incoming calls when using a +44 mobile number? :whistle: ?
