But in reality the 5-minute increment billing companies only charge approx 0.1 ct/min or 0.5ct/min less on their tariff than the others (at least here in germany) -- just to be placed at number one in the tariff charts from the "call by call" lists. Or they tend to swap between 1 and 5 minute increments every 2 weeks or so. This behaviour is just to gain maximum profit and nothing else.

The problem is that there's no good measure (and I'm not quite sure if it may exist at all) of comparison of any two tariffs. Per minute rate is a part of the deal only - increments, setup fee or minimal fee are the other ones.

And as to making max profits - that is what all the companies should make. The problem is when they can make profits even with bad reputation and acting "on the edge of legality"
