English to German translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Telecom(munications)
English term or phrase: Pay as you go total
Der Satz steht im Kontext mit Mobiltelefonen. Ich verstehe nicht, was das total bedeutet. Pay as you go steht ja für Prepaid. Guthaben kann "total" wohl nicht meinen, da schon in einem anderen Satz Pay as you go balance stand.

Merci!!! Frank

pay as you go total
Guthaben vs. Saldo


Explanation:
Eigentlich wäre es nicht schlecht, mal ein oder zwei Sätze aus dem Originaltext hier zu lesen, denn so kann man eigentlich nur raten. Aber ich würde meinen, dass das "pay as you go total" sich auf das gesamte, ursprünglich eingekaufte Gesprächsguthaben bezieht. Die "pay as you go balance" müsste meiner Meinung nach der Stand zu einem beliebigen Zeitpunkt sein. Also je nach Perspektive das verbrauchte oder noch verbleibende Guthaben.
