Re: Usage - overages

I shouldn't need a spreadsheet or a fancy calculator to figure out my bill... KISS. I'd propose, for any plan

Per GB overage: $0.25
Max bill: unlimited+$10

Obviously modify those numbers to where it needs to be, but all this talk of small penalties versus medium penalties versus max penalties versus the min(average,current) is crazy complicated. People want to know two things. How much a gig extra do I have to pay, and what's the worst case (max). Anything more complicated than that will make the price of their bill a mystery when they're over their limit but less than the max.

When I put on my businessperson hat or my geek hat, I envision ideas like most of the other posts here today (including some of my own earlier ones), but when I don my John Q. Public chapeau, I see exactly what Guspaz just posted.

How CAN that be ???

Hmmmm....
