It is expected that the billing system be easy for the buyer to use, and at the same time it should be fool proof.
Conventional system of billing for telephones is the one that is used usually for the landline phones. These bills are commonly 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.
