My Insurance Company Believes In The Metric Year, Almost And Kind Of

My car insurance company sent some notice–I think the notice was to say I earned some special rinky-dink discount for my good driving, yes good driving–and I noticed that one of the (new?) billing options is “Monthly”. The description of this “Monthly” billing plan is as follows:

Pay one-ninth of your premium by the policy’s effective date. Eight more installments will be due in 30-day intervals.

At least they have a good grasp on proper use of hyphens.
