Is it that difficult?
Why do people still need to say euro cent? As if the guilder cent still exists. But ok, it is not wrong to do so, only a bit useless.
But things can be worse. Look at this quote from the site of Vara Laat, my favorite Dutch late night show.
Wil je een uitzending bijwonen van VARA Laat? Bel dan met de afdeling Publieksservice op nummer 0900 - 0123 (0,10 eurocent p.m.)
When you want to visit a show you can dial the number. And did you notice what it costs???
