See how useful the Mobell Satellite Phone was to these Mobell customers:

"Communication between myself and my husband and son ended up being a life saving experience. My husband fell during a big swell and sustained a concussion. He had to be life flighted off of the boat, which was over 100 miles off the coast. With the Mobell Satellite Phone, I was able to comfort my son, find out information and he could tell me exactly when the boat was coming back in to dock to drop him off. Luckily, my husband did not suffer any lasting injury. The phone served the purpose I entended it to have plus much more. We will never travel again out of cell phone range without renting a phone. We are traveling to Mexico in November and will rent another one from Mobell."

K.Manning

"The phone saved me from being absolutely stranded. I reached my destination, which was in a remote area of Costa Rica, only to find that the crew on the ship had gone on strike (no paychecks for 3 months) and disappeared a few hours earlier and there was no gas or food on the ship. The phone on the ship was broken. Mobell saved me as well as other people. There were 95 people who were stranded in a foreign country! I was the only one who had a phone. Thanks, Mobell!!!"

K Swett

" My buddies and I had a great ride thru Baja Mexico in Nov 2007. Unfortunately 250 miles South of the US border and in the middle of the desert my buddies engine completely failed. Fortunately we had a Mobell Sat phone and made the calls necessary to get us rescued. The next day we were drinking margaritas in Ensenada. Thx"

Steve Hess

Even simply having the phone at hand can provide valuable peace of mind for you and your loved ones:

"I am a volunteer for our state wildlife agency and was participating in a sample collection project on deer in far northern Arizona, near the Utah border. This area is extremely remote and cell phone reception is nonexistent. Even traffic is nonexistant! As a female traveling alone, I wanted some peace of mind that in the event of an emergency, I could contact help. While I never had to use the phone, it was a great feeling to know it was with me."

The Mobell Iridium Satellite Phone has global coverage. It will operate anywhere in the world - even in remote areas. It is ideal for use in areas where there is little or no cellular coverage such as in the mountains or out at sea. It will even operate in the North and South Poles and it will work when the mobile phone networks are down!

Wherever you are travelling, the Mobell Satellite Phone is for you. Please be aware, however, that to make and receive calls on the Mobell Satellite Phone, you must have a clear line of sight to the sky. Your phone cannot operate indoors, or close to tall trees or buildings. Basically, the more sky that you can see, the better the signal strength you will get.

The Mobell Satellite Phone is used around the world on leisure and adventure trips; it is used on remote hunting and fishing tours, for expeditions and treks the world over, on sea vessels and cruise ships, and in many more remote destinations around the world.

The Mobell Satellite Phone is also used in contingency planning and for disaster recovery missions.

Wherever it is used, the Mobell Satellite Phone gives valuable peace of mind allowing users to keep in touch with friends, family and co-workers. See what these Mobell customers had to say about the value their Mobell Satellite Phone:

"Your phone let me check in with my wife and kids, even though I was in complete wilderness, miles from anyone. And mostly to let them know that I hadn't been eaten by a bear yet (which was my 6 year old daughters main concern)."

Chris James

"The phone was fantastic, we had constant phone service for the whole trip and maximum signal strength too, I would recommend this brilliant product and service for any serious traveller who may be away from cellular coverage and "normal" methods of communication."

See what this customer had to say about his reasons for choosing Mobell:

"I looked at every website I could find because cost was the major factor in our decision. Mobell's website was precise, clear, easy to understand (very important for someone like me :), no hidden fees, very wonderful service (the gal who helped me was extra kind and helpful...wish I could remember her name!), and the price was by far the best price out there. I was very pleased with the ease of ordering, receiving, using, and sending back the phone! I do believe you have a great thing going here. If I ever needed another satellite phone, there's no way I would look anywhere else."
