Abstract
⺠This paper examines competition in mobile telephony under the receiver-pays regime. ⺠Callers and receivers can determine the length of a call by hanging up. ⺠Firms charge call reception when the access charge is below cost. ⺠Profit is neutral to access charges, socially optimal access charge is below cost. ⺠'Bill-and-Keep' is socially optimal if the call externality is strong.
