A telecommunications service arrangement where users are billed after a month’s usage, rather than paying in advance, provides access to voice communication. The billing cycle includes all calls made and associated fees for the previous period. For instance, a user might make several domestic and international calls throughout the month, and at the end of the billing cycle, they receive an itemized statement detailing these charges, which they then pay.
This service offers the advantage of consistent connectivity without the need for frequent top-ups, allowing for uninterrupted communication. Traditionally, it represented a commitment and a level of creditworthiness, often associated with comprehensive service packages. Early adoption was driven by business users and those seeking a predictable monthly expense for communication needs.
