Those are some insanely cheap prices for 1.5GB a day! I pay $40 for 1GB a month here in the United States. How is this even possible? Are the service providers here really taking in such a fat margin?
- marakv2 6y ago$40 a month in Japan for 50Gb/ month. I think your providers are.
- abdullahkhalids 6y agoSpeaking for Pakistan with somewhat higher rates, I think there are a couple of reasons. 1. Actual competition between providers, rather than implicit collusion. 2. Much higher population density across most of the country. 3. Interestingly, lack of rule of law, which means the whole subscribe-to-a-cell-phone-package that is actually out of your budget but the only option available doesn't work here. People will just run away with the phone. A vast majority of people buy a phone separately and pay upfront for it, and choose a connection provider of their choice. And jump providers whenever they see someone with a better price.
- fyfy18 6y agoI pay £8 per month in the UK for 10gb of data (which can also be used in the EU, for now...). So I believe the answer is yes.
- BenjiWiebe 6y agoWhy are you paying so much? I'm curious what carrier you are on. If it's a major carrier (guessing not) then try an MVNO like Red Pocket Mobile.
