Default Mobile phones in Australia

In article .nl,
lid says...

2 *what* cents? If 2 Euro cents, then pre-paid calling cards are a
wash, i.e. about the same price. If AU$ cents, then they're just a bit
more expensive, 2.3 US$ cents. However they are much more versatile,
because they work from *any* phone.


At the level of 2 cents/minute calls are so cheap, that they are
essentially free. Unless you spend hours on the phone it will be hard to
spend more than a few Euro on phone calls.

And why did you silently snip the third option?


I have no idea what that thing is, which is why I didn't comment on
that.

Because it's too cheap
to fit with your agenda?


What agenda? Besides at 2 cents/minute calls are already so cheap to be
effectively free, unless a few Euros of money spent on phone calls has
any meaningful financial impact on you.
By the way, if your counterpart is also using Skype the calls cost 0
cent/minute.
