I don't think there is anything in CM to do this. with some time and a lot of energy you could look through CDRs and try and route calls based on past calling patterns....... But that is not my idea of a good time.<div>

In theory if this ratio was similar to my amount of free minutes vs. total
minutes I would, over time come fairly close to using all the free minutes and
as few of the “after free, more expensive” minutes.</span></font></p>
