ADVANTAGES OF 2GO
1. It is a means of communication which is very cheap, I can use #3 to chat with my friends on 2go for an hour and when I am in a place were there is free wireless service I can use my 2go to chat for free till am tired, as you all know even #200 credit would not be enough to chat with anybody if you want to call the person, the call won’t last up to 30mins and all your credit is gone. All go needs is the internet connection.
2. You can send files like music, videos, pictures all for free on 2go to any of your friends on 2go.
3. You can use your 2go to chat with your friends in a situation were there is no network coverage but there is internet service like free wireless connection.
