Not Reliable
I received the phone and was not able to establish service. During this initial time I received a bill for minutes used and a statement. I put a call into Blue Cosmo and was not able to reach a technician. I left a vm and then received a call back. We traded calls a few times. I finally spoke to the tech and she told me I needed to remove the battery to reboot the phone and locate satellites. I was able place a call via satellite network in my front yard. Fast forward a couple of weeks I tested the phone in the everglades. I placed a total of four calls in the first location with one connected call. I then drove to another location and was not able to place a call. Frustrated I have decided to return the unit. I bought this phone for emergencies up to seventy miles off shore in the gulf and for hurricanes as well. I am going to consider other products.
