Say you go buy a $10 phone card online. Rate is 2.8 percent for every minute goal. A calling card will show your telephone company minutes are available 10 * 100 / 2.8 = 357. But also the maintenance cost of $0.69 the week. And you use it to wear for two weeks. So the cost of maintaining 2 = 0.69 * $1.38 will be deducted from your card balance. And it will be the actual available minutes (10 to 1.38) * 100 / 2.8 = 309, not 357. If your card has additional costs, these irritating differences between advertising and the truth will be great.
Several conclusions flow from the fact it is not too good:
- Discrimination of calling card companies to make this a true basis for all guilty.
- Complaints with the aim of putting in one company or another pillory beside him hit the target. Because we can always ask: And what about the others?
Meanwhile, there is a problem objective for these costs. They alleged that the difference depends on how your calling card: long or short, or often rare, etc. calling card company can not take these nuances into account. Does not have a calling card minutes to count at all. That's why they show what is called the advertised minutes is calculated by dividing the price of the card level.
Indeed, this often complain that they are the difference between truth and advertised minutes depending on how your calling card. Is small if you use a phone card to make the whole weight of just talking the phone. Can be changed from 2% to 142% for some card changes when the number of phone calls 10-100.
But what can you do and advertised minutes? Don t come any closer! Don t accept them in good faith! Don t see them all the time! Seen, from the mind!
But there are limitations in any decision to compensate the negative feelings?
Yes, there is. You can calculate available minutes that will apply to call the card. Calculate them by taking all cards costs and how to call your own account.
This knowledge will be useful to build more than minute show. So, with him, you can calculate the effective per minute rate (which is what really pays for every minute telephone talk) to your destination. Just divide the actual price of the card minutes. In the example above, the level of efficiency would be 10 * 100/309 = 3.2 cents per minute, not 2.8.
However, let us optimistic end. No matter how much you pay more for calls to the card, this way makes it easier than regular phone lines or mobile phones.
