I’m wondering what the options are. I’ve got some calls I need to make whilst I’m out here in the middle of nowhere in the Maldives. There’s a brilliant mobile network here, Dhi Mobile, I think it is, that covers 100% of all resorts. Nice.
However that’s a good few quid a minute at least on my standard network choices — Vodafone, o2 and T-Mobile.
My first look-up was Jajah… but they don’t seem to have support for the Maldives.
I’m going to take a look at RebTel. Trouble is, since I’m roaming, there is going to be a cost for using the phone whether I’m calling or receiving. And I don’t have a localised sim for the Maldives. Yet.
The other option I’m considering: Truphone. Ah hah. Yes. There’s free wifi here… Oh… and Skype, too.
Do you have any suggestions on a service I could use from the hotel’s landline to make calls back to the UK?
With the market saying 'no' to Nokia's Ovi Store, what do you think can be done to change this?
