    Student’s mobile phone porn habit costs him €1,650
    A STUDENT WHO downloaded large amounts of porn using mobile internet on his phone racked up a bill of more than €1,650.
    Cork Student News writer Mick Daly reports that the man – who did not want to give his name – claims he was told that when he signed up for a new Meteor bill-pay phone, “unlimited internet was part of the deal”.
    However two months later he received a bill for more than €1,600 – and realised that this was due to downloading gigabytes’ worth of cyber porn.
    He regularly downloaded videos multiple times a day, some of which were up to 25 minutes in length.
    Meteor took some sympathy on the student and settled on a bill of €400

    thats a kick in the nuts all together aint it!

    Dont be ridiculous, nobody actually reads those stupid leagally bindign contracts before they sign them. It's easier just to complain afterwards about how the evil mobile companies are ripping everyone off.

    Fair Usage Policy? They should change it to Fair Access Policy, then the acronym would be FAP!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,583 ✭✭✭mconigol


    So he got 75% i.e. €1200 off his phone bill and people are taking the piss?

    I say fair play!
