thanks for the advice guys. i've called them again and in the end they offered me to pay halfway which is 136.80 extra. i've got two options: 1) pay the bill as a one off. 2) go further to the ombudsman. I'm leaning towards option 1. I already enabled back 3G on the 30th of october and will be closely monitoring the data usage on the phone. if something like this happens again, i'm going to turn off the 3G forever until the contract is finished. i also feel that after all this, its not worth having to stress more to go to the ombudsman and wait many months to get a couple of hundred dollars back from the company. hard part is convincing my other half fuken scam i tell u...

very nice man, i'm thinking of taking out my rear seats as well... well my car will be more tail happy on the track... i hope the weather will be good ;) see you on sunday!

and THAT is the butterfly...KEBAB effect ;)

what about mah damn stivo? HAHA

r u serious? i can fart faster than xoom's snail LOL jokes

ouch

Do ken block styles ;)

Totally off topic guys. But i remembered that some of u were wanting 3A racing pods for your cais? If u r get them today. They close for the long weekend... Ring me on 0433991799 if u want any. Im passing there today. I dunno what colours they got in stock though Also if my client comes on time, ill might be able to make it to meet u guys. Just hope the weather holds out for tonight ;)

fuk the rain, we party with or without it make sure you bring your rain coats people with the hoods!

bring a CB if u got one too mate, and please dont clean ur car, u need to clean the bugs off it after u arrive here again LOL

The handling made me cream mah jox

don't worry, as you can see from the original post, there is ample shelter for everyone. so the rain wont be affecting the food and the fun ;) but last time i looked on BOM that the weather was a few showers, not rain... I have every confidence that it wont rain as much like it says in the forecast. Soldier on lads! ;)

far out, still waiting for their damn call. i'm trying very hard not to abuse them and raise my voice. then they will have a reason to not fix the "problem". the last time this happened was with another company who gone bankrupt. one email i fully abused them and they refused to help me due to the "vulgar" language i was giving them they did pay me back however but not the full amount... <_< this was when i was "young and stupid" :D

pfft "in good faith" but for some reason, i've never had a problem with optus... their costumer service is always good and fix problems with no hassles... i always hear good stuff about this company so i decided to try it, such a bad mistake. i bet they promote the 3 months for free and then stuff everyone over by charging them 5 times the amount. all a bunch of lairs and criminals

too................ many..................... numbers........................................... pulls hair out i agree with andrew x100000000000000000000000000000 ;)

Need to vent and need some advice guys... My mobile phone company (lets call it "X") charged me for excess data usage i did not use. I have a samsung galaxy S phone. apparently its 500 meg of excess usage! :o I for one, am very careful about what i use my phone for download and if its over 5 megs i'd use my wifi at home. i wouldn't be stupid to use my 3G for download unless its really urgent because: 1) its slow 2) its expensive I have a limit of 300 meg to use for download and i cannot see how i can use over this (+ almost 200 meg) over the limit. just too ridiculous. So I called them up and asked them to investigate and tomorrow will be the 2 weeks they took to investigate. They rang me yesterday saying that the bill is correct and there is no need for corrections. To my anger and frustration i rang them up today again (because i was busy yesterday) and told them that i wasn't going to pay something that i KNOW i didn't use. I also make sure that every single program that's running in the background is shut down before i went to sleep and i also downloaded a program called "apndriod" to disable the apns on the phone just in case it does download in the background. this is the phone bill at the beginning of the contract as u can see the usage is acceptable... (except on one day that it showed 7 meg... then the second bill comes... as u can see on some days there is 3x meg usage. the usage is also every single day which is unbelievable. There was also a day were my wife and i were at home and we didn't touch the phone at all we got 2x meg download via 3G when it was connected to the wifi. company X said that there is a technical issue with the phone that shuts off wifi when its on standby and uses the 3G network to download. but the precaution i took when i downloaded "apndriod" which prevents it from using 3G and also i shut down all the programs before i put the phone on standby. so how the hell is it downloading stuff when all the programs are shut off??? phew, so after all that i told them this: "if you keep charging me like this. i'm going to cancel the contract because i rather cancel and pay all the monthy fees and charges + the additional cancellation fee rather than paying your company 400 dollars each month for data usage i did not use. next you're going to loose a costumer who had high expectations joining your company then your company will have a bad name THEN i'm going to contact the telecommunications ombudsman and take it from there. So unless you prove to me that I used these data (give me a history of the urls and websites i been to), i'm NOT going to pay your company a cent until this has been rectified." "oh i'm sorry for the inconvenience, i'll forward this to the relevant department and they will get back to you later on today." Any advice guys? cheers for reading.
