If that is true which I honestly don't believe it is it's bezeq/govermenet
fault for over pricing for connecting to the backbone and for using
bezeq's Tashtit.
see how 012 can reduce prices.

Almost all west europe including norway finland and so

Again the question is why it cost so much?taxes?lousy supliers?
don't forget this service is giving all over the world if it was that
expensive and not worth it it wouldn't catch so fast
