Callkey Latest/Is there hope? [merged threads] - Page 2

RTuesday · 03-10-2007, 21:00

Looks like there may have been financial trouble brewing since March:

(see "Financial Restructuring" where they admit they were in default on a loan).

Doesn't anybody (sunrocket, voicestick, callkey, and especially their investors) realise that a business plan should have a way of making profit built into it from the start. Don't just go out giving away services or selling them cheap, in a business where the revenue per customer is tiny, and then hope to find a way to make money later from volume. It's daft.

If it is financial trouble and not trouble in dialling plan on the Isle of Man maybe when they come back online we might have to get used to costs/prices changing in some areas for CallKey backed services

On www.freeglobalsim.com there is a crawl at the bottom of the home page saying that service will resume by Monday 08 October.....as they say we will see what we will see.

i wonder who their supplier was, as every other provider who ran on callkeys platform are still reporting their service is down and won't recover.
