Inside the EU / EES we usually have minutes included.
Right now my plan, with Orange, costs 7.5 EUR / month with unlimited 5G (for real), 16 GB of data when roaming, unlimited minutes when roaming in EU/EES, and 600 international minutes in EU/EES. We do have great deals here, BTW, I'm sure it's more expensive in other EU countries.
I'd have to upgrade for another 100 minutes with US / Canada, however, I have another plan from Digi that charges per minute but that's dirt cheap.
I do have acquaintances from US with which I communicate primarily via WhatsApp, but I don't need it for my family within EU.
- ktosobcy 2y ago> Inside the EU / EES we usually have minutes included. Nowadays... but not so long ago it wasn't like that and the prices were abysmal. And considering that EU is somewhat smaller and there is higher chance of having international contacts make the IMs so popular (especially whatsapp)...
- bad_user 2y agoYou're right about prices being higher not long ago. > EU is somewhat smaller By area? The EU's population is larger than that of the US. WhatsApp is indeed very popular for IM, and nowadays, SMS is basically just for 2FA (I hoped RCS would change that, but it's too little too late unfortunately).
- ktosobcy 2y ago> By area? The EU's population is larger than that of the US. Yes, by area, which second part of the sentence implied when I mentioned it's easier to end-up in different country without driving miles on end :)
