This dang phone evidently has a mind of its own! Seems that it decided to make calls on its own to my dialup internet service--HOURS AND HOURS of use! The billing cycle just reSTARTED Fri 4/28 on 1,000 weekday minutes with unlimited nights and weekends--and already I am hundreds of minutes over the limit! The bill is already more than double. This phone was set up for wap internet with dial+up secondary. Many of thb calls took place while I was asleep, and 15 calls silently made in my 1st 4 hours at work today with the phone next to me on my desk. My life is hell enough, I dont need this! No mental health here.

ink have you talked to the cell company about this? I would take that phone back and tell them it is defective!

I have to call them again. They will make me pay the bill. I know it. Look how much money they have already made off it! What cell phone requires it be connected to the Web at all times?! The bill is nearing $200. I honestly think that I won't have a job much longer so I really wouldnt be able to afford this. Tonight is my first night sleeping in the car again. The overnight shelters have closed now for the season. I will sleep with my ID's in hand because the police are sure to get reaquainted with me again. I think my T is getting worrid about me again. Two more nights until I get to see him.

Talk to them. If they try to make you pay the bill, call the main company number and talk to customer service. If that doesn't work, try contacting your local news; some news shows have features where they investigate and help resolve such conflicts.

Oh geez...and they wonder why I refuse to use the phones! Yeah, phone lines for unlimited internet access...
