What is the general policy of Cellular carriers with respect to
directory inquiries? For residential phone service, SNET in
Connecticut allows you five local inquiries before hitting you with a
charge.  I noticed in my cellular bill that I am charged for 25 cents
for EACH and EVERY information call. This is in addition to air time.
This is with the A carrier (Metro Mobile). I don't believe I made any
infomation calls on my B carrier (Linx) phone, so I don't know if the
policy is the same.

How does this compare with other carriers?
