Congratulations Americans, We Pay The Most For Cellphone Service

Not counting text, pics, internet access, insanely high deposits, and work lost to service outages. Every market in this country is based on pure thievery now.

 

something else most other country's the incoming call to a cell phone is paid by the person calling. I bet that keeps a lot of useless calls down

 

i was watching a a program on india and their economy and they pay an average of $5 a month from many of the us carriers that are entering the market

 

You are 100% correct, when I was stationed in Germany in 2002 we used to answer our phones "Your Euro, Go". The phones were free to us unless you called someone. And that's not on a special plan either. Plus we were using text messaging long before I ever heard about it back home in the USA.

 

This is not a surprise in the free market.

 

I think we need National Cell Phone Reform plan.

Anyone willing to lobby Congress for that ??

On the flip side of this....Look at what the other countries get. Postage stamp coverage !!! Hey, their country is a postage stamp compared to ours, when you consider size and terrain.

 

"free market"... another oxymoron.

 

I just got my first $1,000 bill from AT&T after 6 years of service.

I have made FAR too many friends on this forum... you guys are KILLING ME!!!!
