Sounds right to me, according to this list:

It isn't like unlocking a mobile phone mate, it is a time consuming and fiddly process which I am sure will carry the relevant price from Dan. I am sure that whatever Dan's prices are it is also fair for the work that entails an EWS delete service
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.
