At $30 a line, that’s not very much. I guess $5 is good
Actually, you're totally right. They are giving you more now than you would get if they gave you a 1.6% discount.
No, just reimbursing for the actually time is not enough.
You enter into a contract for a service and that service was broken. There's the lack of reliability that's the issue.
If they were out for a month customers would suffer more than $30 in consequences from stuff like lost productivity.
If it were a pay-by-minute service than sure, but you purchase a month in the expectation it will work that entire month. They should get at least 25% of the monthly cost reimbursed if not the entire month.
