Yeah my thoughts exactly!!! Should see what their rates are...
I have my gmail linked to update to my phone and I check FB every morning, if I'm navigator in the car I will check BD/GH and FB and I use googlemaps a lot. So maybe! BB x |

The default data tariff is well over £1/MB, and might be £3/MB, so £1100 isn't actually that much data.

I complained about a Lucozade water bottle to GSK. They sent me an SAE for it, and in return sent me a new one along with some free hypotonic drink mixes
Didn't expect it, so anything was a bonus.

Orange accidentally charged me for 2 weeks when they swapped over to my new contract and they charged me about 150 quid and I hardly used it - just a bit of email/facebook/forums etc. Their rates are pretty awful for non-inclusive use.

About 5 years ago I noticed they didnt sell Easter Eggs with mugs anymore, so I wrote a humorous/tongue in cheek letter to the leading manufacturers, Nestle, Mars etc with a letter (slightly tailored to each)
http://marcelbooth.co.uk/m/misc/eastereggmugs.html Nestle sent me a Nescafe mug Mars sent me a 'Sorry we dont do them any more' letter Whoever makes Bertie Bassets sent me a bertie basset mug. (Rowntree?) And the fourth major one didnt even bother to reply I don't think. They sell them now, and I like to think it was singlehandedly down to me and my letter Last edited by Bod; 27-06-2009 at 01:19. |

Thanks
It was a tough battle, but I can cope well with it now. Some days are hard, but I muddle on of course |
