"Say no to double-dipping!"

- sschueller 12y agoAnother interesting thing which is only now starting to go away for these unlimited plans is cell phone service in the US. In most countries you only pay for outgoing calls (unless you are roaming). In the US you pay for incoming calls as well (your minutes are deducted) and in addition the person calling you is also paying for that call. So there is double dipping going on there as well. At some point I was even paying for incoming SMS.
