Default Game Got Expensive all of a sudden.

Just a humorous note guys.

I tethered my cellphone to my laptop to down load Gwx gold, because it is way faster than normal. I have a 5 gig plan, so I was in the clear data wise. I then downloaded all my mods. Total usage was 4.4 gig. That is still below my 5 gig limit before I have to pay the over usaage fee of $.25 per mb. So, I thought no problem I'm still good. That is the only usage I have had, so I'm good to go.

I just got my cell phone bill, they charged me $9284.58.

Customer Service here I come.

Damn, if my phone bill is more than €20 (about 22$) I'm pissed.

I doubt that you'll achieve anything with customer service, they're sneaky little bast... out of marriage children

Good luck

Oh... my... god !

If I got a bill like that the first thing I would have had to do is clear all the watery s##t from the floor,due to instant slackening of the bowel!

Good luck with that

All is O.K.

Gave them a call and asked them what the hell.....and they fixed it.
I guess that I sighned up for access just before they cut my bill, so I had used the internet without billing knowing that I had the plan. So they billed me $.25 per mb. They seemed like this happens all thee time.

Oh yeah...They gave me a free month of access for my worry.
