Our Iridium sat phones are their own country code: 881 http://www.ablecommunications.com/customerservice/iridium/iridium.html

The "country" is called "Global Mobile Satellite System (GMSS)" http://fraudcontrolprotection.org/telephone_codesalpha.php

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Mobile_Satellite_System

Telus Mobility can't look up by country code. Give them the name "Iridium". $7.85/min is the high rate for Telus Mobility.
