Doesn't work for me in NL but you already knew that.

If I had an alternative provider I'd switch, but it seems like all Dutch providers are doing this for some bizarre reason.

Thanks everyone for the tests.

Here's a summary so far. If there's anyone out there on a new untested network, please continue to test. I'm slightly disappointed with the large gaps in coverage; I'll have to look into how to cover those holes.

As noted by Terry, your phone number needs to be in 'international format'. This must start with a +, followed by your country code (normally 2 or 3 digits unless you're in the US), followed by your region dialing code (normally omitting the leading '0', but not always... if you don't know and are having problems, feel free to email me or just try both

).

It's also interesting to see just how international the FastMail community is!

Working networks:

UK (Orange; Vodafone; T-mobile; One2One)
Sweden (Telia; Vodafone)
Spain (Telefonica MoviStar)
Ireland (Vodaphone)
Australia (Telstra; Optus)
India (Airtel)
USA (T-mobile)
Switzerland (Swisscom)
Hong Kong (CSL)
Philippines (Globe Telecom)
Qatar (QatarNet)
Luxembourg (all)

Non-working networks:

Netherlands (all)
USA (Verizon; ATT)
Indonesia (Telkomsel; Satelindo)
Belgium (Proximus)
