Comment on communicating while on the road just got easier by rggoldie

Hi Kristela,
The Global Premium Package is a SIM card that you put into a GSM phone to use when you travel. You will need to make sure that your phone is not locked to your carrier, otherwise the SIM card won’t be accepted by the phone. You can usually contact your carrier to get your phone unlocked, or buy a cheap handset from our website. We’ll give you a refund if you can’t get the SIM to work.

Feel free to contact our customer service if you want to speak to someone about the service and find out more.

I’m curious on how the Global Premium Package works. Is it a SIM card that you insert into your phone (I have T-Mobile), if not what else would I need? This is all so confusing….

This is a wonderful idea, but this thing is IMPOSSIBLE to use! The terms of “account number” and “pin” are very confusing. Does this mean the “pin” from the sim card? Does this mean the “account number” on the statement you recieve? I hate confusing stuff like this!!

Dear Alicia, friends and family can see your local time if they view the “get in touch” page of your journal. On that page they can see where you are, the weather, the local time and make a call to you or send you a text message.

We have thought about letting people define times of the day when calls should be diverted. So you could set your phone to divert to voicemail between 10pm and 8am local time. Sounds like that would be a feature you would find useful.

Dear Random, our phonecards are virtual, which means that you don’t need a physical card. After you create your account, you just need to dial an access number for the country you are in, enter your account number and PIN and then you can make calls and listen to voicemail or email. You can call from a normal phone, a payphone, or a mobile phone (although some access number are more expensive if you use a payphone)

- I think it is cool that family/friends can see the weather, but it would be awesome if they could see my local time, based on where my phone is. And the ultimate would be a field which I can input good times to call, so the page can say “this is a good time to call” or “this is not a good time to call.” Just a suggestion. I will enjoy it anyway.

Do not purchase ISI Connect prepaid phone cards! If you are traveling in Europe they have all switched to a system that requires a card with a chip. Its a waist of money and will only make your trip more frustrating
