I noticed this trend with people that have travelled abroad that they don't have convenient time most time you call infact you need to schedule a call with them.

And when finally we are the phone they keep talking and on many occasions I am the one that do run away from the call.

Have anyone experienced this?

Normal..different time zones ..even though you might have an Idea of when they should be less busy .. they might not actually be free.. but if you are schedule a call with them.. they plan properly and call you! if they are the one calling you, they don't have to worry about airtime cos it's very cheap.. na why Dem fit talk for 12 hours ..πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚

if the person is in North America, Asia or Australia for example their time zones are different. I have had phone calls at 5am my time while in Nigeria its like 10 am. You go pick? Some people might also be working shifts ( evenings or weekends) they can’t leave their work for phone calls na 😁

Airtime is cheap where?

Which country do you live and how do you make your calls? Note if you use your normal line to make an international call directly, it's very expensive.
For many of us in North America, we call through voip for international calls which is very cheap. My calls to Nigeria costs me around 8 cents per minute so with just $1, I can call naija for about 12 minutes. In fact, some voips are even cheaper, I have been very lazy to shop around and compare prices. I have not made call to naija directly from my line before, it is always routed through a voip. You can Google to see options available in where you stay.
