this is ridiculous. jesteraver, you think you're king of mobiles or what? I saw you once standing all by yourself on the side of the street waiting for the red light to turn green. if that's not a I don't know what is. now to the point: it is not possible for someone of your caliber to achieve a 800$ cell phone bill unless you're someone important. I came close to 600$ once and I know a lot of hot people. I want to see your bill or else I'm gonna have to call you a liar and a half.
spiffy out. |

I got a bill for $300 from Rogers from when I was in LA last month. I didnt even use it much, but they charge friggin $0.95 per minute just for roaming charges...:mad:
What I usually do is just sign up for a long distance plan before I go away....its like an extra $10-20 (depending on the plan), and it saves you A LOT! Then you just cancel the LD plan the next month. ;)
I did it online before I went to LA..but it didnt seem to work (did it online) and now I got screwed :( |
Also, an important thing to remember is that new feature activations coincide with your billing cycle date - so - if it's the first of every month:
Feb 1 - Bill Cycle Starts
Feb 14 - Activate LD Plan (say 200 LD minutes)
Feb 15-22 - Go to LA for a week and use up 150 minutes LD
Feb 28 - Bill Cycle Ends
Only 100 out of the 200 LD minutes are eligible for use with your LD plan since the feature was only active for 50% of the billing cycle in which you incurred those minutes.
Rogers was like this the past few years - I doubt it's changed. |

Louis, I was told that lately they were having trouble especially in Mexico. People out there are stealing the lines of the cell phones. I'm not too sure how they do it but it seems that when you do a phone call, they intercept the frequencies and then they could do calls on your cellphone account.
I went to mexico city last week for business issue and I didn't bring my cellphone out there, I just paid a few pesos in the phone booths.
So maybe you are a victim of cellphone hijacking, you should maybe tell your cellphone company. |

the funniest ever...
when youre away... if you get a call and someone leaves you a message on your voicemail, they charge you for the time
so if i didnt answer in 200 calls, and people left couple messages or just got to the voicemail but hung up... i in pay 3.50 per call
WTF |
