Of course there are limits, there are people who have a $200 cell phone bill monthly, however if one limits the usage to a reasonable extent, it barley cost anything. My usage of a cell phone, on average, is limited to 7 minutes daily and my bill comes to $3.50 to $5 per month, including all taxes and surcharges charges. The incoming calls are Free and there are no phone locking. The government is the only mobile network provider in the country, but the astonishing point about it, is the (next to nothing) roaming charges, if one place a call away from the home base? Is not like other networks are involved to make the call to happen!HRHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02878736466726525657noreply@blogger.com
