Hi Mr Marshall Johnny,

Here is a list of other satellite phone companies.
 
1. ACeS – An operator providing voice and data services in East Asia.
 
2. Inmarsat – Founded in 1979, considered the oldest. Entered a joint venture with ACeS. The company operates eleven satellites. Available in most regions except polar regions.
 
3. Thuraya – Established in 1997, Thuraya’s has powerful satellites that allow communication on two-thirds of the world's population to communicate in areas unserved by terrestrial networks.
 
4. MSAT / SkyTerra – An American company that uses equipment similar to Inmarsat, but plans to launch a service using handheld devices in the Americas similar to Thuraya's.
 
5. Terrestar – North American satellite company.
 
6. ICO Global Communications – Launched a single geosynchronous satellite but not yet active.
 
7. Globalstar – A network covering most of the world's landmass using 44 active satellites; however many areas are left without coverage since a satellite must be in the range of an earth station. 
 
8. Iridium – Company that was re-established 2001.
 
Hopes this helps you.
 
Thanks.
