Six years ago there was a news story about a guy who joined the army. His father gave him his cell phone so he can get in contact with him. Well, this guy used his cell phone to dial to some really naughty ladies which charge who knows how much. PINK NUMBERS WITH S#X for those who dont understand.

The result?

After one month's time the mobile bill was sent home to his "daddy" and the cost was about 9000 Euros!!!

Any comments on that?

Hmmm.. i feel somewhat better now after listening to all you guys! My avergae phone bill is about £100.

And no matter how much I try, I just cannot for the life of me seem to reduce it..

Still.. at least I got my trusty landline for when I'm at home! That only costs me £15 a month with loadsa international and 0845 numbers!

And also dial up internet for my work laptop on a premium rate number is about 3 hrs worth a month.

Well just last month £232, but before I told my mum (who pays the bill, its meant to be £42.50) I phoned them and asked them WHY??? That proved useless cos they wanted to know my security question AND answer. I explained a question was for answering and he said 'well if I tell you the question, the answers obvious, you'll have to ask you're mum the question and answer...' Well i couldnt ask mum because she'd have hit the roof, so I used the email query service. They woked out they had it £100 out and they've 'credited that amount to my account'. Mum still has to pay that amount though... any idea were I can see this credited money? Oh and btw, mum was fine about it after all that lol.
