Sometimes, regulation would be a good idea.
Bell recently introduced an "unlimited" mobile browsing package for its customers. Sounds good, right?
Not quite.
Piotr Staniaszek got this plan - and then proceeded to use his phone as a modem for his laptop. He apparently thought that the $10/month "unlimited mobile browsing" would also include downloading files, watching movies etc. Always remember to read the fine print!
Not.
In November he was informed he owed $65,000... he thought it was a mistake... and racked up another $20,000 in December.
He is going to fight the charges.
Bell so far has offered to reduce his charges to $5,000
