The provider bills each call, including calls that find nothing. Misses are free when the provider does not bill them; provider-billed misses are charged at cost, without Ahel's margin. Provider-billed failures follow the quoted billing rules. A run that never reaches a provider is not charged. Pending charges stay held until the provider settles.
