How they charge you

Fixed monthly pricing

Same price every month. Doesn't matter if you get 50 calls or 500. First heat wave hits and your phone blows up? Your bill stays the same.

Per-call / per-minute

Looks cheap on paper. Then your marketing works, calls spike, and suddenly you owe $700. The busier you get, the more they punish you for it.

Unique customer limits

Some services charge per caller. Mrs. Johnson calls back to confirm her appointment? That's another charge. They're literally billing you for good customer service.
