Not true.
95 percentile means that every 5 minutes they do a reading from your MRTG, after a month they take all the readings (should be 8640 in total) the nthey take top 5% of them (should be 432 5 minutes periods in total) and remove them. After that you pay for what you peak was.
example you have 432 peaks during 1 month at 10 mbit, your 433th highest peak was 1 mbit. You pay for 1 mbit
example you have 433 peaks during 1 month at 10 mbit, the rest of the time your server was down or transfered only 1 kbps, you would end up paying for 10 mbit
