Not in Scotland they don't, and you guys sign up for this?

Not if I don't answer the phone. I don't know you, I don't answer. Problem solved.

I added my cellphone to the DNC when it first came out.

Seriously though,
Is paying to receive calls the norm in the US?

**ODYSSEY** · 01-11-2006, 12:29 AM

If somebody calls and you are out of plan minutes, then you pay a per minute fee.

Also prepaid usually pays per minute fee.

Nextel offers free incoming calls. Some providers offer first minute free on incoming calls. Most providers count all minutes, no matter if it is incoming or outgoing.
