4 ways to slash mobile phone bills
Text ‘em. Cheap and efficient. Some companies offer free incoming text, while others offer free unlimited text with certain plans.
Know your network. Check which network most of your friends and peers are on and consider switching to it. Changing networks is easy and you can often keep your number for no extra charge.
Get an IDD card. Great for long-distance calls. Not only does it offer better rates, it also ensures yourtalktime is limited. Most networks have a two-way charge for overseas calls. Or, stick to SMS.
Check your bill. To ensure you catch errors and identify hidden charges. If you find a mistake, dispute it; you’ll often receive credit on future bills.
