You may want to try Piranha mobile. I cancelled my Telna account last year.

Likewise I cancelled my Telna account last year. Just signed up for Piranha over the weekend. Spent GBP50 for a sim card with £50 on it and they are also sending a complimentary second sim card with £5 on it.

Piranha apparently is using Telna/G3 for at least some of their back end services (both of the sim cards that are en route to me from the UK have phone numbers assigned from the Telna number pool according to whitepages.com). But Piranha rates, their website and their customer service appear to be very good.

Planning on using both prepaid InMarSat and prepaid Piranha (roaming on Digicel) in Bermuda for a couple of weeks in May/June.

I suspect that the reason the Telna Mobile product is languishing a bit is because G3 bought Telna mostly for the Telna infrastructure. G3 already has the iroam roaming sim card.

Yes, I noticed that on the bottom banner G3 web site. Silly me, thought "hey, THAT'S where Telna's cellular service went!". Wrong....
