The operator left these few words, and careful users finally realized that unlimited data is expensive

Nowadays, with the continuous development of mobile phones, speeding up and reducing fees has become a very appealing thing. In order to respond to the call, the three major operators have followed up with different practices and handed over the so-called *** traffic packages. Now there are many types of packages such as Big King Card, Big Fish Card, and even Bao Card. Most of them adopt free traffic cooperation with certain APPs, and launch new products in the form of fixed reading. Many users find that *** traffic is only 19 yuan or even 9 yuan a month, which is too cost-effective.

Is this really the case? In fact, if you think about it carefully, if you spend data at this time, the three major operators will inevitably suffer serious losses. However, according to the 2017 annual revenue report, they made a net profit of 133.326 billion yuan, and the total revenue is still considerable. As the demand for data increases, for operators, this is actually a very large bonus. How can they not make money at this time? Therefore, careful users finally understand that the *** data package is actually quite expensive and not as affordable as imagined.

The reason is very simple. Let's take a package card that claims to have the highest traffic. The strategy they use is to process a large number of APPs free of charge. If the user does not use Internet services other than these APPs, they will still be charged outside the package. In the terms of service, the operator left these few words. From the pictures, you can see that for different APPs, there are already some pictures, texts, advertisements, and traffic loss during the loading process. These parts are not covered by the APP free traffic service at all. Imagine that after using these packages every day, as long as there is a little extra traffic, at least the minimum charge will be deducted. When it is finally converted to the end of the month, the original 9 yuan a month for full use or 19 yuan for free use will not work, and it will eventually cost dozens of yuan more. The wool still comes from the sheep.

For some of these small tricks, different operators will actually come up with new plans when choosing partners. At present, the price of the 50-yuan to 100-yuan data package is still around 50 yuan to 100 yuan. No matter how you use it, most packages will hover within this floating range. So it seems that the so-called 50-yuan data is not cheap. If users really want to experience large data traffic, it is actually quite difficult now. Now that it is like this, what will happen to the data fee after 5G comes?
