View Full Version : Mobile Phone Bill
Mine and the BF's combined mobile phone bill for last month was £350!!!!!! The overwhelming majority of calls were to each other. :blushing:

Anyone else have stupidly huge phone bills?

I've been paying £60line rental alone on my mobile (O2) for the last 14 months. Thing is I split up with my exlast year and she was the only one I really used my minutes on. I'm cancelling ASAP.

Bit of advice if you have any say in what kind of mobile phone your girlfriend gets:
MAKE SURE IT'S PAY AS YOU TALK!!!11!

:lol:
I am on O2 pay as you go, and I top up about twice a year (I'm not much of a talker!)
Mrs Barbarossa is paying something like £19 a month on O2, of which she doesn't use up all her allowance, but it does give her free upgrades every year...
...Which means I too get free upgrades every year! :01: Just one year behind everyone else... :mellow:

Ooooch! My scottish ancestry doth wince.
I think one of the service providers does a package where you have two phones and two numbers, but they are on the same account and calls between them are free. I can't remember which one it is though.
Methinks a bit of phone-discipline is needed mayhaps?
@ Blythorama.....that's just what we need so if you could try and remember......please.
@ Guilllaume....I don't have a flat I have a house. :snooty:
@ Barbarrossa....Living together don't help much, he is on the road, I have autonomy at work....and we just chat all day.
I know, I know....its bad. It's not much less than my mortgage ffs!!!!

If you get a TalkTalk landline, you can get unlimited free calls to your TalkTalk mobile (not sure if this is any use... :huh: )
Talk Talk (http://www.talktalk.co.uk/talktalk/servlet/gben-server-PageServer?ARTICLE=MAIN.UK.TALKTALK.MOBILE.HOME.INDEX.HOMEPAGE&NODE_ID=8484)
EDIT: Hmm, you can have up to 3 sim cards per landline account, but calls between the mobiles are 15p a minute... It's only when you call from mobile to home or vice versa that it's free... :(

Probably. We seem to like paying over the odds for everything. I think even the prostitutes charge 65% more than the average 'ho :pinch: :shutup:

British prostitutes are much hawter though. :mellow:

I don't know if it's available for you Sara, but the plan I've got basically gives you free calling between two people. It's got some wacky name (BetweenUs Calling or somesuch), but it's generically a couple's plan. You get two phones, two numbers, unlimited calling between the two. Mine also has free evenings/weekends and other stuff I don't use (like text messaging or video sending and on and on and on. I need to cancel that).

....I didn't mean it like that. :P
I just meant I could probably knock another $20 or so off the bill if I cut out the text-messaging and so forth.
:shuriken:
MN...that would be just what we need, but I haven't found a UK company that is offering this service. :(

I've PMed you about this. I'll also have a word with me chav mate who works in carphone warehouse for you. I know you can put two handsets on the same account with vodaphone. I think you get reduced line rental with the second number and reduced rates between them but not free.
Barbarossa
11-08-2005, 02:14 PM
It seems you can only get something like this in the UK for business customers :(
My last months bill was £175.17 :(
Damn NTL customer services :angry:

Cancel the contract with a company that would send you such a bill. Get a plan with another provider that better meets your needs.
