William Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 We just got a cellphone bill stating that we have used mobile internet services for over a 1000 dollars. We've asked them to send some kind of specification, but at the moment I'm just pissed that they actually are so sure about it. According to them we've downloaded 2 GB's of data at 460 different times. That's just ridiculous! And the bill only covers for 1 month. The thing is that we actually got proof, the cellphone built in status thing says that it has downloaded only about 20 MB's and that is for the whole long time the phone has been used. But they say it's not enough and that we could have "fixed that". I even did some math on it and to reach that amount of data you would have to watch 20 hours of streaming video (for example youtube). Too bad they don't listen to anything you say. The amount to right is 10 242 kr = 1431,45 dollar Fuck. :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dfit00 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I am sure you'll get most of it taken off the bill. You should consider getting a data package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HorrificAttack Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 HOW DARE THEY MAKE A GENUINE ERROR! They'll resolve it once you prove you haven't done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 You should try sorting it out with your phone company. I used internet on my phone once and they charged my family like $200, but when my family sorted it out with the phone company they dropped the charges.

William Posted March 11, 2010 Author Share Posted March 11, 2010 I am sure you'll get most of it taken off the bill. You should consider getting a data package. Yeah but the thing is that I'm suspecting that this is mistake on their side, but yes that is what I hope. If I knew I was getting a big ass bill I would probably get a data package, I don't think there's one covering 2.5 gb anyway. HOW DARE THEY MAKE A GENUINE ERROR! They'll resolve it once you prove you haven't done that. Yeah, but the problem is really how we're going to prove it. As I said, the proof I actually have are according to them too weak. How the heck I'm going to prove something like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Gah, I hate when they charge you for stuff you know you're not doing. That happened to us once with the doctor's office. I'm sure if you keep calling and pestering the hell out of them something good will happen. :nice: :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busybeeburns Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I've noticed that every single mobile broadband PAY AS YOU GO tariff in the UK now expires within 30 days of purchasing it, thus requiring a new purchase every month. Exactly the same as a monthly contract!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
