Hi...just found this post in a very old thread regarding the question I had...YM, you seem to have disappeared...too bad I, for one, appreciate your replies regarding your service.

The question remains, and this post was from October, whatever happened to the promised USA roaming card.....is it still in the planning stage or have you guys given up on it?

Just a quick review of my usage of Yackie. I am currently on a cruise that has stopped in Barbados, St. Lucia, Antigua & Barbuda, and St. Thomas, USVI. I am primarily using yackie in those islands except in USVI which I used my AT&T phone as it's a US teritory and does NOT cost extra. Yacke worked quite well withotu any problems at all. It registers on one of the networks (phone shows one of Digicel, C&W, bmobile) depending on location. I am quite satisfied.

Edit: Yackie's rate table is not 100% correct. All my calls were back to USA landline and mobile. And they were all billed at $0.45. Yackie's rate table lists calls back to landline and mobiles as $0.35 and $0.39 respectively.

I just made some test calls - also to keep the card alive and noticed that the rates are not correct in the calculator.

There is written:
You call from : Germany To : Germany Land Line : $0.5 /mn

i was billed:
2008-05-26 19:22:42 493677xxxxxx GERMANY Ilmenau Thur [Fixed] 12 1 mins 0.64

Technically it works well, the calls also to the DID have a very good audio quality now. But i would prefer to know what i pay before i call and not have a lottery when looking at the call list afterwards.

EDIT: confirmed by customer care now:

"Good Afternoon

We will have to go through the rates and update them and make any necessary changes. what was billed to your SIM is the correct cost per call. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Kind regards

It's probably to difficult to link their billing system to publish the rates on the website. So everytime something changes in the billing systems it's automatically updated on the website.

funny thing is that some time ago there was a newsletter that calls to landlines from 40 countries were lowered. Also germany was down from 6x ct to 50 ct. Now it seems that the new rates were only marketing but never changed in the billing system at all...

Exactly. The lowered rates are displayed on the website. However, it's not reflected in the billing system. As I mentioned above, I experienced the same thing.

my card has been changed twice because of yackie changing carrier. currently i am still waiting for a change of card since they last changed carrrier. my sim is absolutely useless. They reply to email but just give different dates when it would start working again.

This thread is over a year old, there is updated information about yackie in the thread below. Most folks have probably moved on and not waiting on yackie.
