That’s how they justify the $100 bandaid at the emergency room.

It's not just the usage time, it's being "ready" to use it at any time. There
is a cost to readiness.

From the description, it's not about the usage but about the support. This
one feels like a nightmare. ONE visit a month and the $39 is going to be the
small end of the cost. And if the owner pushes back about billing per visit,
the monthly fee is going to vanish into the maintenance cost...

$39/month is pretty steep, don’t you think? If the iPads are being used for
POS - credit cards take, what, five seconds to process? Say they do sixty
transactions a day which means they’re using the internet for a total of five
minutes. You’re going to charge someone $39/month for only using the internet
for FIVE MINUTES a day?

Sounds like a very high maintenance customer for no more than he's probably
going to want to pay. Also, he wants a residential plan? Really? This is quite
clearly a business situation.

I would say 150k sq foot wireless coverage between 42 buildings for 39
bucks a month is a pretty fair deal. This is the request that came in to us.
XXXX has a business location in XXXX at another address that he has
questions about getting service for. It is at XXXX. It's a shed he rents from
someone and he would like internet to cover his office, a toolshed, and up to
40 outside of his buildings since he's going to use iPads and barcodes
everywhere. Up to 2 1/2-3 1/2 acres he needs covered. He's tried XXXX and they
weren't working well. He wants to use us for POS system. He said he's more
interested in residential plans than business because he doesn't need the other
features as he gets them from whoever supports his POS. He doesn't want to sign
up until he knows the cost of what his monthly/annual service would be.
