Im researching implementing IoT hub in a project at work, including TCO. I get to the listed pricing for IoT hub and am met with this.

Am I missing somthing on how comma's are supposed to be placed in numbers or is four hundred thousand(400,000) being mildly misrepresented as 4 million (4,000,000) by throwing a comma in after the second digit?

The B3 tier is even worse, its three comma's infer billions thirty billion in this case, where its actually three hundred million a hundredth of that.

Is this intentional or is the js rendering these numbers just messing up?

    Hello @gareth.tucker ,

    The pricing page displays according to the locale number system, i.e use of separators.

    https://azure.microsoft.com/**en-us**/pricing/details/iot-hub/
