Re: Risk is a Major Factor said by patcat88:Then learn to check the real time minute/data usage offered by your carrier. What's to learn? You log in and check over the internet or call a number and have a recorded voice speak out the numbers. Simple as pie. That doesn't do much to help any dispute that I might encounter.
If my usage data indicated that I made 5000 text messages and I was only paying for 300 messages, even if I did not have anything to do with it, or these messages were never actually sent, it's a hassle. There is no guarantee that my provider would work with me to solve this problem, and I don't have the resources to compete with their legal teams. I could potentially have my credit ruined and my wireless service cutoff, leaving a pre-paid choice as my only option.
I'm not worried about my own actions, and I know how to check my usage, I'm worried about a mistake made by my wireless provider. I'm willing to spend a little extra money to reduce the chance of any overages being implemented.
How about a plan for $.0.15/minute talking, $.0.10 per text message, and $5 per GB of data transferred? With $20 in taxes and fees, typically I'd pay about $90/month instead of $110/month that I currently do, but with a nagging fear that it could be much, much higher.
I choose to have my usage unlimited, rather than my bill being potentially unlimited. |
