The given bar chart elucidate and compares
the data about minutes ( in billions) logged on three types of calls in the UK
between 1995 and 2002.
Overall, it can be observed that even though
the local calls made from fixed line
rose and fell, they still remained the highest, while long distance and mobile
call minutes registered a contrasting rise through the similar period.
Fixed line local calls registered a rise from
70 billion minutes to 90 million minutes between 1995 and 1999, but fell back
to 70 billion minutes from 1999 to 2004.
In contrast, the calls made to other parts of
the country and overseas and mobile registered a rise in the similar period though
while the the number minutes on domestic and foreign calls remained ascended steadily,
rise in number of mobile phone call minutes was negligible from 1995 to 1998,
and after 1998 the number of minutes started rising significantly, rising
dramatically nearly four-folds in a matter of next three years reaching 40
billion minutes.
