Just wanted to share a few tips about reducing your mobile bill.
So far we got two Mobile providers in Syria which are almost identical. SyriaTel and MTN.
SMS
It is not just in Syria, but in a lot of countries Mobile companies still charges a lot for SMS despite how simple it is.
Lately I noticed that MTN and SyriaTel are offering good bundles to reduce the SMS cost.
So I advice all the people who uses SMS to pick one of the offers below. It will even reduce your mobile bill while using SMS instead of calling 🙂 I think the 100 SMS is sweet.

While I still think that the GPRS cost is very high, the bundles are still a way to save some money if you need to use GPRS.
