bbob,

I read your earlier post about pbxes, but this is all somewhat new to me, and perhaps I did not understand it. I understood that the free version of pbxes will save money only on incoming calls. How does that help when outgoing rates change? It seems to me that when you pay 30 Euros for a card, and the company subsequently raises its rates, your choice is to pay those higher rates or stop using the card, which is the same thing since the cost of the card is then spread over fewer minutes. How will it help to switch to a different provider?

To me, the whole concept of "prepaid GSM" is beginning to look like a scam. What have you bought if the company can raise the price of minutes you have already purchased?
