Airtime pricing principles (charged by time or volume)
When using the system note that the circuit switched services and
streaming classes (packet switched) are charged by the time the service is
being used, while the standard IP and SMS services (packet switched) are
charged by the volume of data transferred or number of messages sent.
The following image shows how the various applications are supported by
the SwiftBroadband service.
For information on service availability see Services on page 3.
