Why are calls so expensive?

Is it just me or are all the Mobile phone companies in Ireland ripping us off?

Vodafone by far are the biggest. It cost over €1 to call the UK and text messaging is at 13c. the other two companies, meteor and digifone are just as bad.

Meteor charge unbelievable prices to buy the phone, then when you buy it the signal is crap! Digifone are simply "robbers," like vodafone they may as well put a gun to your head, its daylight robbery.

These companies are exploiting us! Its clear as day that they are..But how can we stop it?
