Pounds v Dollars

I see some people posting the price as $175, but we are talking about 175 British Pounds, or roughly $340 in US dollars. That seems like a pretty serious rip-off to me.

No. Did you even read the article you silly sally?

It says £90. Not £175. So yes, its only $175 American.

To convert the currency is also not accurate since people there get paid in pounds, not dollars.

exactly right. this would be closer to paying $90 for someone there then it would be to $175

Or the equivalent of about 17 UK, (21 US) gallons of gas

If you had read the article (or the same from other sources), you'd note that the fee includes work to rewire internal wiring (which BT already charge £90-ish for), or install what they call an "iplate", among other methods.

To say it's £90 for changing the RWIN is bad journalism.
