Surely you are charging many hundreds if not thousands for EFM or whatever, why even give them the option? I can't believe they'd not sign up if it cost $523 per month vs $500...<BR>

Makes me no never mind, just can't believe the market is that stupid :/<BR>

I don't believe we could deliver it at a price that customers would buy with an acceptable margin. Perhaps on 3g it might be possible but the startup cost is to high and most want minimal startup costs. It's a balancing act. ADSL2+ home grade as a back is closer to the price point we offered it at $23 per month extra. Most want to save the $23 .<BR>

We always offer redundancy.<BR>

Conversely, why do you even offer a non-redundant option?<BR>
