Inmarsat just told me the Mini-M is extended until Dec 2016. I was told, it depends on the serial number of your device, mine started with 76TT....

Date: Monday, February 17, 2014, 9:35 AM Hi Eric, I see that Bill has already picked up on this and is more likely better informed than me.Any information that I have comes directly from the Inmarsat website that statesImarsat B with voice distress which was due to close December 2014 has now been extended to December 2016. I think that may be Mini M but I'm not sure.I am please to see with Fleet that they are now actively promoting the use of the emergency 505 number which has been around for a while but many people were unaware of it. You have a redirected connection to Holland,USA or Australia in emergencies.Best regards,Trevor |
