consumer beware...
my friend got a $950 bill at the end of the month, when he check why,
he realized he used fido cell phone to access the internet. it comes
up with a warning message that says 5c per 1kb.
Now, not many people know what 1kb mean. they think, ah, it's cheap,
5c!. but when you access any site that has images let alone videos on
it, you will end up downloading 1mb, which is 1000 which is 1000000
that could amount to $50,000. In other words, your cell phone is a
huge liability credit card.
I would suggest calling fido and asking them to remove any internet
access from your phone. because if you think about it, you might a
responsible person, and may be knows what 1kb means, but you might
leave your cell somewhere and somebody could use it and screw you up
big time.
there should be maximum charge legistration for this kind of stuff!
