I called in a rush prior to a trip (having just figured out that I could rent a sat phone) and these guys overnighted me a phone, 2 batteries, and asked me to call to ensure that the phone was working to my satisfaction. I called mid-trip to extend the rental and that was also painless. I will use these guys again on future trips!
The guys did good, phone arrived when it was supposed to. Everything was in good shape & ready to go. Fortunately, I did not have to use it, but it was nice to know it was there if needed. I will rent from them again.
