Hi,

I received a letter from Pivotel explaining Globalstar is now known as Pivotel.

In the letter and various brochures they acknowledge there is a problem with the Globalstar service and despite launching new satellites there will still be periods up to 45 minutes where there is no service. No mention of how long the service will stay online once it is there. For this below par service they now offer a discount of 50% on satellite calls. Great if I can actually get connected, in reality of no use at all.

They now have an Iridium network and I can get a small discount if I change over. I really have no option but to take this offer if I want a satellite service. It is going to cost me almost as much as the Globalstar phone was to begin with.

At the end of the day I have done my money with Globalstar with no way of getting a refund. The Globalstar service never lived up to their claims. I could almost never get a connection and even today I never get a signal when I randomly give it a try.

Topend.
