Iridium contact details, ice & weather information

We are just setting up our various satellite phone accounts.

We can receive text messages (no attachments) sent by email to 881623460917(use the@ sign here) msg.iridium.com

We have an email address that can accept attachments of modest size and if you want to send us a file such as an ice chart or a satellite photo then please write to us on the above address and we will send you our other email address. Please compress attachments to around 100k as anything larger will clog up our system.

We can receive voice calls on ++881623460917 but please be aware calls to this number will be very expensive.
