If someone calls your personal cell phone number will you receive the call or does the person trying to get ahold of you have to call the Iridium satellite phone number?
Hi @jinnap1148, thanks for asking, that's a really good question. Although the Iridium Network covers the entire world, Iridium complies with the U.S. embargo restrictions. Therefore, it is prohibited from providing products/service in the following countries: Taliban controlled Afghanistan, China, Cuba, India, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Sudan. Each country is different and regulations may change without notice, so please ensure to check with the local consulate or customs offices.

Yes, if you're out of mobile coverage, they need to call your satellite number attached to GO device.
Also when you call out from it does the person your calling know it's you or is it calling from a Iridium number?
When calling from the GO, the number that will appear is the satellite number attached to the GO, not your mobile number.
Is this working around the world ?
