Why does the shopping cart show the highest price?

[gei 7]

On our website - like that I would imagine of every web hosting company - we show the prices based on the cheapest possible payment term. ie it's cheaper on annual terms vs monthly terms.

Yet on the whmcs built-in product page, it only shows the HIGHEST possible price - ie the monthly term. Clients always email us at this point and say "wait a minute - I thought it was xxx per year".

Why can't the shopping cart page show something like "from xxx per month", with the price based on the lowest possible price. Or at least indicate to clients that they will have the option to choose pricing terms on the following page somehow. As it is, the way pricing is displayed is very confusing.

Edit: our way around this confusion is to include in the product description that "the price is xxx on annual terms or yyy on monthly terms", just so clients don't get confused and email us, but this is really just an ugly hack.
