Outgoing call :

Incoming Call : FREE
Incoming calls with your 'local' number is: $0.29
Thanks. what about costs for other countries when dialing the +354 number?

The only way I know to find that out is to select a particular country and see how much it is (unless you can get yackie to provide you with a rate sheet for all countries or so).

For example for the US (incoming is not free here). I used calling UK as an example, but any country chosen should not affect the cost to receive calls in the US.

You call from : USA To : United Kingdom
Local Call : (USA )
$2.24 /mn
Outgoing call :
Mobile : $2.34 /mn
Land Line : $2.24 /mn
SMS out : $0.49 /sms
SMS in : FREE
Incoming Call :
Incoming calls with your 'local' number is: $1.99

Many thanks,

Just want to post that Yackie started an investigation on the sms issue once they found it in their system. Also, they issued a refund to my account for the sms messages already.

Very good customer service indeed!

As you may or may not know, there has been a continuing problem with the USA gsm carriers accepting incoming sms messages from certain international sim cards...for a while, as I remember but you can correct me if I'm wrong, there was a thread here how T Mobile USA considered all sms messages coming in from +423 as being non acceptable.....

Correct!

T-Mobile was blocking +423 and a handful of other very countries/carriers. That was as late as springtime and had been ongoing. I don't know about ATT and could not check as I do not have that service.

I can say that many countries in the USA do not allow calls to +354 including Vonage and Tmobile, as I have tried.

I just couldn't resist...I sent a voucher request using a scan of the order form and welcome letter from the defunct BuyTel Travelfone company in Ireland as proof of purchase.

Let's see if they accept it. If they do, this will truly be a case of turning a lemon into lemonade

My scan of my eKit welcome letter was accepted within 8 hours, the order is already completed and they let me know they sent the card already.
Well organised I must say.
