Mobile Phone - new rates
I had not seen this before, but reading this week's Talaki, there's new rates out by Tonfon for their mobile service, too bad their coverage doesn't help me and I'm already committed to UCall.
Summary: Tonfon is Cheaper
Local calls: Cheaper (18c -vs- 21c)
SMS: Cheaper (6c -vs- 10c)
SMS International: Even (30c -vs- 30c and 40c -vs- 35c)
International: Cheaper 70/60c -vs- 80/75c; 70/60c -vs- $1/80c [Landline]
If you are a mobile phone junky, making a hundred calls a day, all other things being equal, you'd be a fool to buy UCall (UCall published rates) but not all things are equal (even if I am a fool.) Coverage is still spotty for both providers, but where I generally cruise I am getting much better reception with Ucall (and the switching cost is not that great really.)
TCC Customer Service Hour Changes
Another little news, radio announcing changes to the TCC Customer Counter hours beginning 1st March, 2007.
For the islands of Ha'apai, Vava'u, and 'Eua
Mon / Frid 8:00am ~ 5:00 PM (not 11:00pm)
Saturday: 8:00am ~ 2:00pm
TCC Customer Service Hours (Tongatapu)
Tongatapu hours remain the same
Mon / Frid 8:00am ~ 11:00pm
Saturday: 8:00am ~ 2:00pm
To get the latest updates on the 'current' rates, you really need to be checking out TCC's website http://www.tcc.to, I'd also recommend you look to Tonfon's site http://www.tonfon.to for their latest rate, but they're quite pathetic about updating their website.
