What's your worst experience with a Phone Bill?

Currently having a 4 month back log of Bills to deal with because of their technical issues.

One minute I am in credit, the next in debit, back in credit...like srsly!

Over 1000 bucks with vodafone. Refused to pay it because of shit house coverage. They refused to do anything about it so I went to the ombudsman. They wiped my bill eventually and by that time I only had one months left on my contract and I was out of there.

Prepaid is the way to go.

Get prepaid and never look back. Rolling the dice with post paid and end up getting a massive bill is a thing of the past.

I cant believe people still get post paid phone plans.

Not really, phone used 3G instead of WiFi automatically, I had shit coverage as well. Its safe to say that I have the app to check where I am nowadays

This a Home Bundle (Mobiles/BBand etc)...moved 1.5kms to a new residence...tech difficulties every month since Aug have backed up...seems all sorted tonight...actually in CREDIT (confirmed twice now in sep calls) when the Bill that came today says almost the same amount in DEBIT.

We shall see when the next bill comes in early April....

My boss now pays for my phone so haven't had to worry for the past 2 years.

Yep, I prefer to not enter into contracts with phone companies where possible. Still paying them for phone credit, but I'm the one in control, not them.
