Ok... Now I'm confused...

Afaik, I pay Telecom $29.95/month for my line to be Jetstart-enabled....
And everything else goes to Paradise. I don't know anything about this
5gig international limit... Paradise let me have 10gig's... I've used in
excess of 5gigs of international traffic in a month before... And never
got any "xtra's" (excuse the pun) on my phone bill....

Cheers,
Jared
