The Iridium GO! airtime plans are monthly automatically renewing plans with some rules.

    In the first month, billing is prorated. For subsequent months, the billing period begins from the 1st of the month to the final day of the month.

  • In the first month, Voice minutes and data (when on GO! Plus and Basic Plans) are also prorated.

  • No refunds can be given for the unused portion of the month you are cancelling in.

  • Iridium GO! airtime plans cannot be activated and cancelled in the same calendar month, you are free to cancel in the following month, but you will be charged for that entire month.

  • If you cancel, please be aware used Iridium GO! SIM cards are not able to be reactivated.

    Extra Iridium GO! SIM cards can be ordered at this link.
