# 1 pound sterling = 100 pence sterling
# 1 pence sterling is our lowest unit of coinage, but
#  I suspect telephone companys may remember the
#  fractions of pence for billing.
#
# Our monetry format:
#
# e.g. £1.57 = 1 pound and 57 pence.
# e.g. 157p = 1 pund and 57 pence.
#
# defines UKP (PoundSterling) to be used as currency
# symbol (not absolutely needed, default = "$")
currency_symbol=£

# Define the position of the currency symbol.
# (not absolutely needed, default is "right")
currency_position=left

# Define the number of significat digits.
# (not absolutely needed, default is "2"
currency_digits=2


################################################################
# connection settings
################################################################

# NOTE: rules are applied from top to bottom - the
#       LAST matching rule is the one used for the
#       cost computations.

# This is charged whenever you connect. If you don't have to
# pay per-connection, use "0" here or comment it out.
per_connection=0.0

# minimum costs per per connection. If the costs of a phone
# call are less than this value, this value is used instead
# They quote 5p _*inclusive*_ of VAT (Value Added Tax, whose
#  current rate is 17.5%).  All other charges are exclusive
#  of VAT.
minimum_costs=0.04256

# This is the default rule which is used when no other rule
# applies. The first component "0.04" is the price of one
# "unit", while "60" is the duration in seconds.
# Therefore the following rule means: "Every 60 seconds 0.04
# PoundsSterling are added to the bill"
#
# I've simply taken the worst case price for this, peak time
#  calls.  Just in case I miss a period of time out.
default=(0.04, 60)

# We are actually charged to the second, but I don't really
#  need the PPP program to be so accurate myself (all that

#  fine for me.
