Here in India, thanks to the competition, call and text rates are nose diving. We were one of the cheapest markets, now its even more cheaper! The latest price cuts were introduced just last week..

Just a quick example; when Mrs. Cyco was in India, a Rs.500 (about £8) top up card gave her around 90 minutes talk time to my UK landline.

If I called her mobile from the landline, £8 would buy me about 20 minutes!

Yeah, I'm not on the best possible call package but even so...
