Hi,
Had lots of help from people here to solve my problem with using my next g sim in a sat phone.
Have spent countless hours on the phone with telstra to no avail. With next g sim in iridium phone it would register but not allow calls other than emergency.
The guys I it from tried their sim and it worked. Tried replacing my sim and still no chance. Tried telstra again today and after being passed from person to person finally found someone that helped.
Turns out when setting up my account 1900 numbers had been blocked. As simple as that but took a couple of months and a large number of phone calls to get the right person that actually took the time to look at my account.
So that's it all sorted.
Thanks to those that helped.

But then again you were trying to get some sense from Telstra what do you expect.
I know just you went through.

Excellent Austravel
Isn't it always some simple, but obscure, little bloody thing !!??
I hope you can replace all that hair you tore out.
cheers

I was begining to think I'd never get it sorted. Had tried every avenue I could think of.
Thanks for your advice.
