I have just paid off my 14 year old son's mobile bill for just under £170 - all texts to his g/f :roll: Texting shite every 3 seconds :roll:

 

He has now paid me back I might add but his agreed monthly charge is only £12.00 which includes 150 mins and 150 texts which was fine at first but in one month he did 954 texts :shock::shock: and his bill comes out of my bank account :roll:

 

He has now dumped the girl and was grounded BIG time for a few weeks, no phone, no nothing :lol::lol::lol:

 

His last phone bill was £12.04 :wink::thumbsup::mrgreen:

 

Ahh, the joys of being a parent :mrgreen:

Had a big fight with Orange, and they cut off our company phones. Except one. But they thought they had cut off all of them. So, including roaming, managed to clock up £550, one month, including what was owed from a previous bill, it was over a grand (that's seven numbers though, including mobile broadband).

 

What do I win?

I use PAYG on a genie card, chuck a tenner on and get 200 free texts in the first month, then normal rates apply, tenner normally lasts me between 3-4 months, if they want to hear my voice let them call, and if you do need to make a call let it ring twice then switch it off and they normally phone back :mrgreen:

 

On the subject of being tight I once worked with a bloke who would sit in his living room without the light on and reckoned he could see to read a newspaper from the streetlamp outside :thumbsup:

very similar....£1130 :shock:

 

was in egypt and my girlfirends nan died suddenly, many calls at £1.50 a min soon adds up, she had a similar bill too :?:roll:

A friend of mine was rung up by someone asking about what he paid on his mobile because they would try to beat it. He said he spend about £30, so the guy on the other end worked out this package for £20 a month, gave him all the details, and asked if that was any good for him. He said, no, £30 a year on his PAYG. The phone inexplicably went dead :lol:

I refused to pay ours. We had a company go bust about 5 years ago, and the phones were in the old company's name. Suddenly out of the blue they cut them off. We must have easily had the numbers for a decade, and as they had not been cut off before it's obvious we were paying the bills. We would have happily paid the bills if they allowed us to keep using the numbers, but they not only wanted us to do that, but pay them up to July, in advance. So I said fook em, and didn't pay the last bill.
