That story is insane; I can't even begin to imagine what it was like to get a $62K phone bill, especially when that guy probably thought his downloading plan was somehow unlimited. Terrible! I wonder why he believed the plan was good to go--misrepresentation perhaps, or just a mistake? If there was any funny business going on, this particularly riles me because I work for the consumer advocacy website http://www.fixmycellbill.com, powered by a company called Validas, where we slash the average cell bill by 22 percent. It costs five bucks if you want to implement our suggested changes to your plan (the average consumer currently saves around $450 annually through us) but we will analyze your bill for free without any commitment of purchase, just to let you know exactly how many dollars your carrier is ripping you off by. I could go on and on about how shifty these cell companies can be in their attempts to make you overpay. We stop them and have currently put over $5,000,000 back in the pockets of consumers. You can check out Validas’s fixmycellbill.com in the national news media, most recently on Good Morning America at http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=6887412&page=1.

Good luck to everyone in keeping your wireless expenses down in this rough economy.
