You don't have to use it, it depends on your personal wishes. Cards issued by universities generally have phone charges and traffic, and there will be various preferential packages. After the school starts, a lot of information such as the school account number will be sent to this mobile phone card issued by the university. If you don't use it, it's okay to change the card with a little trouble. You can ask about other card packages when you get to school, and then decide whether to use them.

Why do some universities issue calling cards?

Four years of college:

College students studying in big cities are likely to actively use the number attached to the school within four years.

1. In the first month, your phone number has been remembered by many students in the same class, college, student union and so on. Changing the number is already very troublesome. Therefore, operators can get a group of active users who have been using for a long time within four years.

2. Operators are likely to cooperate with universities in the cornet of "Campus Group". , it will cause great trouble to change operators and increase the call cost.

After graduation:

A large number of college students will become long-term "loyal" users of operators after graduation.

1. College students have great opportunities to work in the local area after graduation. If this happens, the chances of changing calling cards are very low.

2. Because of the contacts accumulated in the university for four years (this is the biggest resistance to changing calling cards), changing calling cards brings great inconvenience, and it is more likely to continue to use calling cards that have been used for four years.

Since this is an act of making money, in order to win the resources of school users, operators will certainly give certain benefits to the school, such as sponsorship and cooperation. Even if not, the school will provide students with better service (free initial calling card charge+short number service).

To sum up, this is the result of the cooperation between an operator and a university, but the ultimate benefit is the three parties.
