Exactly ...
And it also says that the customer will be a long term customer ...
It is easy to remove the setup fees, and blend them in the monthly prices ... Then the customer pays for them over a much period of time, blended in the price ....
Here is an example of how it works ( not from my company):
setup Monthly
399.95 219.95
199.95 229.95
99.95 239.95
0.00 269.95
The higer the setup, the cheaper the monthly ...
On the otherhand, when we have "older boxes " to clear , then we do not charge setup fees to get them moving ...
