Re: [asterisk-biz] New US DID Special

Confirmed, this it the rate for metered DIDs.

USD$1.00 per month + $0.004/minute

Best,

 Um, your math is as bad as Verizon's:

 0.4 cents == $0.004

 0.4 cents is 4 tenths of a cent which is 4/10ths of a cent.

 I think I am too -- I disregarded Jai's DIDs because I read it in the past
 as 4 cents ($0.04) per minute, not 4 tenths of a cent ($0.004) per minute.
 $0.004 makes his metered inbound sexier (assuming "unlimited"
 channels).

 So Jai --

 USD$1.00 per month + $0.04/minute
 OR
 USD$1.00 per month + $0.004/minute

 Can we please all just use US dollars to say how much things are?  If you
 watch the video, it's clear people are stupid, and don't understand
 converting between units (cents to dollars).  I hate it when people quote
 in cents.  I hate rate sheets in cents.  Please, use dollars with a lot of
 zeros.  If you charge $0.004 per minute, say $0.004, not 0.4 cents.  There
 is a reason the cents character is hard to type.

 I'm guessing it's because I want it in dollars.
