Telna Again?

biophysics · 02-03-2012, 02:57

hello,

2 issues, wondering what you guys think:

1) i texted a sprint phone using my telna phone, and now that sprint phone keeps recieving my text every 2 hours for the last day.

2) after working well for the first five days i had telna, now the network keeps searching and not finding carrier. This just started on 03/01/12.

My son uses this sim. I could not reach him yesterday. As he always turns it own when he gets on the school bus. When he finally called me from the home phone, he said the phone would not connect. I just checked it now after I saw your post. Incoming calls and texts are not coming through. Outgoing calls work. But txts just sit in the outbox.

Bottom line - they are having issues.

thanks bossman, I can second everything you said. I was able to make an outgoing but no incoming calls, and no texts at all.

looks like I'll have to get a second sim card. Maybe just use telna as a backup??? any alternatives for similar price?? I was looking at spotmobile.

I am not familiar with spotmobile. If your primary use is for the USA, have you considered others such as TMobile, etc? My primary use of telna is for international travel. So that I can forward my AT&T number to it, and be reachable at good rates. Telna has served me well in that regards. I have use it in Jamaica, UK, Nigeria, etc. without issues. So, whatever the issues are they are having, it's probably just temporary. At least I hope so...as I plan on using it for incoming calls from the US when I travel to Nigeria at the end of the month.
