    How much can or should I (expect to) be charged by a freelance writer for 6000 to 8000 words technical report?

    I am looking to publish a semi-marketing and process description of a product/services I have helped develop in my job. Obviously I have the details but to lazy to write and am trying to avoid the online AI tools.

    It was a lie after all. Retentions called today and said I am still going to pay the upgrade fee and I called the lady a liar and asked to port to prepaid and she transferred me to who I presume is her boss and told her the same thing and she hung up on me!

    Tried taking this one, but the lady from retentions said I should wait for official release of BF deals to circumvent the upgrade fee

    Yes, its the same deal I am currently on. 1GB (+10GB addon), 100min, 50 SMS for R88. I can retain it for either 36months at R88 or 24months for R127. Its still fine for me, my greediness is saying wait for new BF deals

    Thanks, I just did. Apparently it will continue to be R88 minus the 10GB (its actually 1GB+10GB, 100minutes, 50 SMS) Edit: I was offered to continue with it same price for 24months (R127) or 36months(R88)

    Worryingly am also on BF deal from 3 years ago and didn't receive these warning SMSs or emails about my deal. I am on a R90 deal (10GB, 100 minutes, 50 SMS) and don't want to change and wonder whats the actual cost per month of this deal

    How long a solar power system takes to pay for itself

    When to pay it off...was not really a consideration. I was just tired of outages lasting up to 5 days in my area. Luckily I had half of the expenditure in savings and the other half took from the access bond.

    I suspect that's the case, it's a boundary wall.

    Ya it seems like those plugs don't do anything except plugging drilled holes. Will probably contact a contractor for alternatives even though I wanted a DIY solution.
