Global Roaming Sim Card for Seafarers
Global Roaming Sim Card for Seafarers
This gives one permanent no you can print in your visiting card as you have one mobile no in India always with every seafarer. No money is deducted on monthly basis/no roaming charges and you can receive sms free from your near and dear ones all over the world.
This also gives free incoming calls in many country.
Through email on most ships - you are already in touch with the family at low cost. But you carry no usable mobile while transiting from India till joining vessel and also when you go ashore on shore leave in port - in case need arise to call someone or send text.
You should continue to use for calling to India any cheap internet calling card you get in any port/area- to reduce cost and this one to use - when you have nothing
cheaper than this.
What is your opinion about same - whether every seafarer should have one global Sim card or not?

0 There are few service providers who are providing such service as global seafarer cards of reliance, but these cards won't prove useful as the roaming rates despite of being cheaper than usual are really high if you compare to any local dialling card of the country.
