5000% more?

I like how they used a percentage to make it seem like a larger number.

5000% is only 50 times the normal amount. That's still a significant number, but doesn't 5000% sound so much scarier?

Why don't these providers just say, "You used X amount of transfer which is Y percent higher than our average customer."?
