Ridiculous Cellphone Bills

[cheeseburger]

Managed 200 minutes over my daily talktime of 350 minutes before 6pm


Feel like hurling myself off harbour center

[islandgirl]

I did that too once....my phone bill was $600. Never again!!

[FeelGood]

How much do you pay per minute after you go over?

[islandgirl]

I am not sure how much it was, i just find that out! All i know when i opened the bill i cried!

[meth0dical]

all my cellphone bills are rediculous but thats what happens when you use wireless web, download games, and use msn from your cell. $120+ every month, but i know what to expect when i get my bill.

Kenny I am soooooooo with you! As a result of Apex, my cell phone bill goes up at least 200% for about 6 months out of the year. $200 is considered a cheap bill to me. My worst bill was over $1000.

One benefit, I get a free upgrade every year as a result of how much I use my phone.

[rawb]

yeah but you can write that off.

Yes this is true - as well some is expensed. But it is still a huge chunk out of pocket. And I only see that return once a year right? So for most of the year, I don't see it.

[FeelGood]

wow, and i thought paying like $60-100 a month was expensive just for a phone.
you guys are nuts!

[Miss T]

that is why i have a plan that suits when i will be using my phone, therefore its always $50 a month and no surprises!!

[LeeBrat]

and this is why i dont have a cell phone...thats rediculous

My Blackberry Bill (voice and data) on average per month is about $130. BUT, I don't wanna know all the roaming charges and extra fees for text messages are gonna be from my trip to Europe.

I bought it at a time they had a wicked promo running so it only cost me $300. I think it retails right now though for $499 or something.

My bills used to be like $140 every month, then I started to realize how much money I was throwing away on my phone bill, so I stoped using it as often, still use it during the day but not for more then like 5mins. Now my cell bill's only like $65 a month I love it.

[rawb]
