Self-service · Activation

Activate a plan

If you've just received a SIM from us, you can activate it through this form or the hotline. We typically activate within one working hour during UK business hours; overnight activations are completed first thing the next morning.

What we need to activate

  • The SIM serial (printed on the SIM card and on the despatch paperwork)
  • Your billing details (or PO number, for invoiced accounts)
  • The plan you’d like (we’ll have included recommendations with the SIM)
  • Confirmation of the start date if not “today”

How to request activation

Once activated

You’ll receive:

  • A confirmation of the plan and activation date by email
  • The satellite phone number assigned to the SIM
  • Optional: a UK +44 number for the SIM if you’ve requested one

Pausing or cancelling

You can pause an active plan (subject to plan terms) or cancel it — see plan changes and cancellation.
