### Information gap
Total price doesn't match our invoice because some number's information not recorded in Prices CSV.

Total price from invoice: 244
Calculated price without following numbers: 199

| Number        | Country | Type   | Service           |
| ------------- | ------- | ------ | ----------------- |
| +525549998882 | MX      | Mobile | N/A               |
| +525549998751 | MX      | Mobile | Gopro             |
| +33644607939  | FR      | Mobile | Tarte France      |
| +601130116837 | MY      | Mobile | Tarte Malaysia    |
| +601130116870 | MY      | Mobile | Tarte Singapore   |
| +601130116721 | MY      | Mobile | Tarte New Zealand |

However, we can get the actual charge of these numbers from invoice

199 + 15x2 + 2 + 5x3 = 246

We can divide the SMS billing to franchises (Through API and service_id/MySQL), but SMS carrier fee can't map to each franchises:

## Should ask Twilio
- How to divide SMS carrier fee to each SMS log
- How to get type or monthly charge of each phone number
- Update the Phone Number Prices CSV
