The World’s most expensive mobile phone calls

Money Matters

Welcome to Zimbabwe were a mobile phone call will cost you a minimum of $4 million dollars per minute. The country of millions or is it billions, but we are now dealing in trillions. We should ask Mr Gono, why things have come to this? The country’s budget figures are in trillions, our Sunday newspaper will cost you $100 million, now our mobile phone charges are about $4 million per minute. WOW! I give up, we should stop using this Zimbabwean dollar. It’s embarrassing, a total disgrace.

The facts, Econet Wireless customers using Buddie will now have to pay $4 091 722.00 per minute. Calls to other networks, that is NetOne and Telecel will cost even more.
International calls to to fixed receivers in United Kingdom, Belgium and other European countries cost about $7 million per minute.

Calls to international mobile phones cost a minimum of $7 319 769.00 per minute. If you find the large figures a bit confusing, well feel sorry for the people of Zimbabwe who have to deal with these figures everyday. Zimbabwe if full of billionaires who have nothing to show for it. The majority ca not afford three decent meals a day. Yet our dear leaders were in the news recently buying guns and bombs from their Chinese friends. Have they no shame?

Glory Be To God!

    Yes, the money situation is laughable. Why doesn’t Gono do something. I just don’t understand it.

  2. KOGY Says:

    @ debo hobo, Zimbabwe under the current government is just a crazy world. Very difficult to understand some things that these people are doing or not doing.
    …they say they have university degrees but their management of the economy is disgraceful
