Telephones are the best way of being in touch with each other. For this manner of communication different phones are in use. Like the landline phones, the cell phones and the IP (internet protocol) phones. For the billing of these phones a deep and a fool proof method has to be in place. It is expected that the billing system be painless for the buyer to use, and at the same time it should be fool proof.
Conventional method of billing for telephones is the one that is used generally for the landline phones. These bills are mostly the “post paid”. That is, a bill for the calls made, is formed to the buyer, after the calls are made. Such bills are for a particular time period, say for a month. With the advancements in the billing systems concept of prepaid calling cards came in to reality. These calling cards are easy to buy and very convenient to use. A very unique feature of these calling cards is that the client can actually check his/her expenditure for the telephone calls.
A calling card is also some times called as a telephone card. It is similar to a credit / ATM card in looks and shape. The telephone services can be paid for by these calling cards. There are two billing models on which they function. One is a prepaid credit system. Here the buyer pays certain amount and get a calling card with that amount as a credit. The other system works like a credit card.
The kind of system that is used to make a call using the calling cards depends upon the telecommunication system. However, presently, the most frequent type is the prepaid type of system. These calling cards are available for a certain amount and the cost of the call is reduced from the balance on the card. When the balance becomes nil a new card has to be bought. These calling cards are disposable.
There is also another type of card present which has a PIN (Permanent Identification Number) that is written on it. By using this number a call can be placed and the charges are billed on a pre determined landline number.
Almost all of the telephone service providers offer prepaid calling cards to their clients. Therefore there is a stiff competition among the service providers over the rates of the calling cards. It is for the client to choose the cheapest calling card from this wide variety that is available.
