Cell Phone - Be Careful about Recurring Fees with Downloads

SUMMARY: Downloading games, wallpaper, ringtones, or screensavers onto your cell phone? Make sure you only get charged once.

While many people enjoy the entertainment features available with today's cell phone such as games, wallpaper, ringtones, and screensavers, realize that many of these features involve recurring fees.

While some cell phone games, wallpapers, ringtones, and screensavers may only entail a one-time charge, many of the larger entertainment providers charge recurring monthly fees for the use of such features. Granted, some companies charge a monthly fee and let you choose different games, wallpapers, ringtones, or screensavers every month; thus, this may work for you. Just remember to read the fine print before installing any software on your cell phone!
