The Trails and Tribulations with my Mobile Phones.
Ever since i have had my first mobile phone... its been this blur of messy bills, lost phones and god knows what else.
I mean first i had to fight so much with my parents and this was when i was in JC to make them get me a mobile phone... and in a high climax dramatic situation i got my mobile and was forever told i was should have waited for a better deal.
Then came the temptation to be always on the phone... and with Singtel charging me left right and centre i wasnt excatly benefitting and bills rose and my parents ( well more like my dad) would not increase it to a higer tariff. so the bills rose even higher..
Then i very glamourously managed to lose my phone.. and my parents ( well dad) wld not get me another one... so i had to borrow cash frm a friend and lied to my parents it was a second hand and got myself a new one.. and it took me ages to pay her back. ( was like end of JC2 when i did.. thanks a mil babes!!)
Then it was the bills again so i eventually paid it off when i started working interships after the A levels. Then i had Pay as u go whenever i came back to Singapore from Manchester.
Well now in Sg i got myself a permanant Starhub No. ( which my dad was pissed i did not use his company deal thing well i asked and he took forever and i needed a mobile i cld not keep paying singtel so much money) and i left this no disconnected whenever i left for the Uk and wld reconnect when i come back!.. Then my Family decided they needed a another no and made me give it to them!! argh!!
so god only knows what is yet to happen.. but frm what i hear my dad has not cleared the bill on my no for his usage.. no surprise there.
And as for the story of mobile phone in the UK.. it was good a year all last year i kept in touch but also within the credit limit partially coz all the friends were pple i was living with etc.
This year its a whole new story!... i have BF ... bills rocketed.. so i got another mobile with off peak minutes onli and i have about 1400 mins and free incoming i still dont have minutes at the end of the month and i just relaised i have done the biggest boo boo of all time. For some reason assumed the off peak timings are from 6 to 6 and something felt wrong today and when i checked it on the web it was 7pm to 7 am !!!! ahhhhhhhhhh.... there goes my money wont be surprised if i end up paying about 100 pounds!! someone pls kill me!
And Mobile phone and Co's will eat all of my money! I dont know what else is to come But i am gonna try and stay away from the vicious money eating machine!
Free internet phones like skype! here i come!
