Good. That was such a bullshit excuse. It's literally outputting from a spreadsheet.

The ISPs arguments are bogus, anyway. The claim they don't know the costs when offering a contract, but suddenly remember each and everything when writing the bill...

If they can't even give you an itemized bill, they're making a number up.

My work is making bills out of ISPs' data. Every kb of mobile data and every call minute is tracked and rated.
