Operator: We are sooo innovative. We have flatrates!

GoMo: Great – flatrate. So one price for everything. Right?

Operator: NO?

GoMo: What?

Operator: Its a flat rate between him and him or her and her but not zick and zack.

GoMo: Aha!

Operator: But if you want to add her and her and him and him or uncle and aunty you add another flat rate on top of it.

GoMo: Right!

Operator: Yes! So you buy an Max S or Max M or Max L or superflat 1 or XXL flatrate.

GoMo: OK

Operator: Or you can even buy a CombiCard for your lover. Or a family flatrate for EUR 9.95 for your family or add MyFaves for your friends or ..

GoMo: Gosh there are more flatrates!

Operator: Oh yes! You can even have a laptop flatrate or under EUR 10 flat rate or a full-flat rate or email flatrate.

GoMo: Yikes – you need another flat rate for email and data

Operator: Ofcourse!

GoMo: So why all the flat rates why not just one?

Operator: ? (looks confused, starts to sweat speaks slowly). Why didn’t I think of that.

GoMo: falls of the chair..
