Up to this point I completely agree.


BUT: yesterday someone was always asking me directly (with "schurig: " in 
front of his questions), and he did not look any hard at all. Also, I'm 
not a paid customer care assistent in NuFone's call center.

Because I was with others in conversation, I had not the option to ignore 
him. And actually I didn't want to. If someone wants to open a business 
as he stated, then he should be able to calc the costs, I'm not a  
personal unpaid support person for new ventures.
