Hi Ankita -

We do not charge without informing. When you sign up, we make it plain that the service will automatically charge for the basic stream package in 15 days time. Regardless, we offer a 30 day money back guarantee and stand behind it - please contact us and the charge will be refunded.

Hi - to clarify - this issue was resolved shortly after this discussion took place.

Hi -

This sample code is in php.

In php the + operator is used for string concatenation (as it is in other scripting languages).

So the values of all the individual parameters, as strings, are concatenated and then the resulting string is processed to produce a unique md5 'signature' that cannot be produced by any other string.

Hope this helps clarify your other questions as well.

Regards,

Gil

Hi -

Period, comma and exclamation mark have some effect, but that effect depends on the voice, and can be inconsistent.

Best solution is to use SSML tags - in this case the 'break' tag.

Here's an example -

Break for 1000 milliseconds <Break time="1000ms"/> Okay, keep going.

See "advanced" section at the bottom of our demo page - for more examples about using SSML tags.

It is the weekend - I'm sure we'll get back to you soon.

Thanks for your patience
