I recall in Ukraine in nienties some mobile operators did not charge for the first few seconds of a call (I think it was 2 or 3). There was an art of communication around that...
- zuppy 6y agoSame in Romania. I think it was somewhere around 1997, they changed that once people started having multiple 2-3 seconds calls. I still wonder what was the reason for that free window, was it a technical limitation?

- egorfine 6y agoПривет! :) It used to be 10 or even 15 seconds in the very beginning of GSM service here (I have never used an NMT or DAMPS device so not sure about them). 10 seconds used to be plenty for a meaningful discussion.
