Get Paid for Incoming calls

This kind of promotion techniques are popular in western countries, but for the first time Sri Lankan company has come up with this idea. Yes, If you’re receiving an IDD call then you’ll be entitled to some money.

As per lankabell web site,

Effective immediately, every incoming IDD call on a Lanka Bell phone will earn its user 50 cents for every minute of the call, regardless of its duration, country of origin or how many calls are received for a day, the company announced.

I don’t know how it’s possible, but seems Lankabell will receive some money from international operators while their called placed to Lankabell powered phones. Most probably Lankabell wants to share a part of income they make from incoming IDD calls.

Anyway, Sri Lankan Telecommunication costs are getting cheaper, but it should get even much cheaper to reach all Sri Lankans.
