Iridium Standard Satellite Phone Pay Monthly Plans

Standard Terms & Conditions

• Pro-Rated First Month: All plans will be pro-rated in the first month. This includes both the monthly fee (in monetary form) and any inclusive allowances (e.g. minutes, SMS, MB), based on activation date.
• Inclusive Allowances: Any inclusive minutes, SMS, MB, or other allowances do not carry over to the next month. No compensation, rebate, or credit is provided for unused allowances.
• Overage Charges: Once inclusive allowances are used, overage charges apply at the rates shown in the Overage Rates Table. These are calculated and invoiced monthly.
• Minimum Term & Rolling Contract: The stated minimum term is a commitment period. After this, your contract will continue on a rolling monthly basis unless otherwise stated. Charges continue until you request disconnection in writing via email.
• Incoming Calls & SMS: There are no charges for receiving calls or SMS, and these do not count against your allowance. The caller/sender will be charged by their provider.
• Final Month Billing: The final month is always billed in full.
