She was surprised at the attitude of tech support. She also said that they have sold pumps for as low as $5/mo to people without insurance.
Ummmmmm....$5 guzinta $5500, 1100 times. Six years is only 72 months. 1100/72 = dead pump. Anyone else have problems with this math? |
Man, that's like paying for 92 years for a pump that will last 6 years. The $5/month must include some kinda discount. I am pretty sure most of the companies give discounts for those without insurance.
